Honestly I've been a big fan of Sanders for a lot longer than most here have paid attention to him, and his schtick is getting old. He literally only goes negative on everything and then presents himself as 'hey I can fix this by spending trillions of dollars on social programs.'
My guess is the common American thinks he's full of garbage and that his fairly tale policies are never going to happen anyways.
You literally have the strongest economy the world has ever seen, and then you have a Presidential candidate who runs around telling everyone the whole country is screwed.
Massive disconnect and detachment from reality. There is a lot that needs to be fixed, but lets not kid ourselves. Many Americans are doing very well.

So the strongest economy in the history of world can't solve rampantly growing income disparity?
Pretty depressing.
