    yeah but also let’s not forget that the DNC has funded far right extremest candidates in the past thinking that they could get an easy win. that didn’t pan out

      They did that this year too! It’s not just something they’ve done in the past. They gave millions of dollars to far-right candidates in the primaries, hoping that the candidate would knock the serious contender out of the race, and then they could beat the far-right candidate in the final election. It’s devious, and apparently sometimes effective, but does raise a lot of questions and kind of overshadows this whole “we only take the high road” image they’ve tried to cultivate.
