I liked Bernie, but he couldn't win a primary because he had very little support amongst black voters. That isn't a conspiracy.

It's not about Bernie or even just Presidential races. They threaten anyone who primaries a moderate incumbent but ignore when moderates primary even slightly progressive candidates. They had more Republicans speaking at the DNC than progressives.
They have a 24% approval rating doing things your way. Control of none of the branches of government. And despite those wins you cited, have done almost nothing with that power compared to Republicans. I'd say they've let Trump win two terms through sheer incompetency, but I think they've made it clear that they don't really have a problem with Trump as long as the money keeps flowing.
