    If they did that, Trump would have won the general…just like he did against Hillary. But, they didn’t have to. They managed to successfully convince enough progressives that they could, that people just sat down and stopped fighting.

      Weird way to say got all but the other progressive candidate to drop out, get behind Biden and have the remaining progressive candidate start attacking Bernie

          Not really. Dnc could pull another trick like the Iowa app fuck up. Or as others have pointed out they don’t even need to follow how voters in the primary or cacuses pick.

          I’m confused are you arguing the dnc doesn’t control who they put on the ticket or that it’s the voters fault for how presidential primaries go when it may not even matter by the time they get the opportunity to vote?
