minus-square@pjwestinlink5•edit-221 minutes agoI think you’re forgetting the part where Clinton paid off the DNC’s debts and became it’s only financial lifeline, for which DNC chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz abdicated control of party to Clinton’s team long before she secured the nomination.. Or that the AP controversially called the primary for Hillary just before California voted, giving voters the impression the primary was over before voting finished. Or that the DNC argued in court that they had no obligation give Bernie a fair, democratic primary. Or that Representatives Ford and Smith admitted the party did coalesce around Biden in 2020 to block Bernie. Or that polls had Bernie beating Trump by a wider margin than Clinton in 2016 and Biden in 2020.
minus-square@Butterpaderplink-1•1 hour agoDid you forgot the part where it came down to just bernie vs biden in 2020 and people overwhelmingly voted for biden? I like bernie too, but he wasn’t gonna get the pick
minus-square@pjwestinlink1•26 minutes agoExcept it wasn’t just him and Bernie. It was also Warren, so the progressive vote was spit, while the centrist vote was coordinated around Biden. Nice try though!
