I will be so glad when this false propaganda meme of the Bernie Bro is permanently retired. It was false then, false now and here's some proof.

Despite a stream of propaganda from Democratic establishment leaders, a new poll finds that Bernie Sanders’ popularity extends to minorities and women.

During the 2016 Democratic presidential primary contest, the “Bernie Bro” trope became a tried-and-true myth propagated by people at the highest levels of the national Democratic Party apparatus. The pejorative — first used in late 2015 — used to describe Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-Vermont) most ardent supporters typically refers to young white men between the ages of 25 and 35 who were vociferous in both their support of the Vermont senator and their opposition to eventual Democratic nominee and failed general election candidate Hillary Clinton.

However, a new survey conducted by Harvard University and The Harris Poll disproves all of those comments about the Sanders coalition with hard numbers. According to the survey results, which were conducted among 2,027 registered voters between April 14 and April 17, 2017, Sanders is actually more popular among women, African Americans, Hispanics, and Asian Americans than white people and men.
