That's just your speculation.

I have prolly heard a dozen excuses for Hillary, none of which owned up to her being crooked, incompetent, and connected with too many dead people.

Regardless of Bernie's popularity, he still ran as a socialist against basically a populist outsider. After 8 years of Obama, the country was moving right, as evidenced by Republican gains since 2010.

Since the Republican congress can't work together, watch for the country to move left again in 2018.
