The massive failure of democratic socialists in yesterday's primaries

American Thinker
Rick Moran  "If democratic socialists are "the future" of the Democratic party they better get used to losing - a lot.

"Many pundits predicted economic collapse when the business tycoon turned presidential candidate won the 2016 election.  Even the so-called "experts" got it wrong.  Economist and NYT columnist Paul Krugman made the bold prediction that markets would "never" recover from Donald Trump being elected president.
