First, none of those are examples of the left abandoning causes they had previously celebrated just because Trump supports them, which was the question. That said, some of what you said is reasonable, especially the comment regarding how much the Democrats have abandoned the blue collar working class even as they continued to take their support for granted. This is an area where the Democratic party has been seriously hypocritical.
The Russian thing I don't agree with and we have a whole thread that discusses all of the reasons why. No one credible is claiming Russia literally hacked voting machines, btw, and the concerns about Russia go well beyond how much of an impact they had on the election itself (which I agree is very debatable). Not at all comparable to the Red Scare.
Hillary has caught plenty of flack from the left about her Wall Street connections, though not so much from the DNC, I'll grant. Same goes for her deplorables comment.
Overall, you seem to be confusing the hypocrisy of the DNC and associated stooges with the actions of liberals at large (many of whom were passionate Bernie supporters, of course). The DNC is at least as dysfunctional/hypocritical as the GOP, you'll get no argument from me there, but I wouldn't go making comments about how "liberals" in general are acting on all of the above as if its the same thing.
Anyway, this is all definitely off topic for this thread! :)
I would agree that unlike most of the DNC plenty of liberals don't fall under the hypocrisies I mentioned. Though many also do, if they didn't I doubt Hillary would have been the nominee despite the shady actions of the DNC and media companies collaborating with them Plenty of her politics being in direct opposition to plenty of actual progressive policies.
I would have to disagree that none of these have anything to do with Trump. The ignorant blind nationalism shown in response to "Make America great again" was in direct response to Trump making that his slogan and the Russia thing didn't become a thing until it was convenient to smear Trump with it.
Accepting not being open about the speeches isn't necessarily a 180 due to Trump, but Trump's tax returns are hypocritically brought up to act as if that makes her behavior ok.
The latter two though I already admitted weren't related to Trump, but do show some blatant hypocrisy.
not to be dirty bernie stan in 2017, but
i'm about to do just that lol.a vast majority of the voters behind the dnc were upset with the hypocrisy you're describing as well as the media block out of far left positions. and in turn the dnc itself
was upset as demonstrated by the lifting/moving/throwing of chairs, the disgrace of Wasserman-Schultz, and the current election which is #wild. so i think you can't go as far as you might like in hrc's positions being accepted by democrats, be it voters or the dnc bloc.
secondly the 'america was already great' is not what i heard although i am again a dirty far left kid so... most protesters chant things like "america was never great" "hey hey ho ho this racist state has got to go" and more. even jacobin has an article about the problematic of the russia/red scare, and they're usually light years behind actual leftists. even within the pres debates, hrc wasn't making an argument of 'russia bad. america good.' but 'russia is a foreign state with tendencies to invade other countries and poor relations with the us. in turn voters should be aware of whether a republican candidate is going to reverse sanctions/ i can win conservatives by being a hawk.' trump seemed far more dedicated to the american exceptionalism during the election cycle, but he has moved his rhetoric a lot post-elections (re: 'you think we're so innocent' is a far cry from the glory of the american worker, be it the coal miner or the military soldier).
even the america is already great is more nuanced in the sense that it's usually a stand in for 'america has far greater civil liberties now than in the past and let's not return to the disenfranchisement of minority groups in the name of national nostaglia' not blind nationalism. it has build in an acknowledgement that we were once pretty terrible, to say, black people trying to vote in 1960s.
in any case, the kids at berkeley are far more likely to be in the 'america was never great' than the 'america is already great.'
idk maybe there's a snarky comment about liberals using dnc chairs to smash windows that someone can make?
