Bernie supporters dont just think the DNC is trying to rig the process against him, they KNOW it. Even mainstream media is openly reporting on those efforts, lol:
"DNC members discuss rules change to stop Sanders at convention"

Fake news. The head of the DNC already made a statement about that.

a nice hommage to the (former) mayor, for our resident buttigieg fans:

No one has time to watch that.

for real though the wheels are really coming off the democratic primaries
I'm guessing order will be restored after the first few votes and definitely after super tuesday, but right now its a free for all of vitriol, panic and histrionics.
warren, bernie, clinton, tom perez, tulsi, bloomberg even klobuchar- its a free for all lumberjack match

Bernie supporters think the DNC is being rigged, Clinton going after Bernie with knives out, Tulsi knowing the DNC is rigged, etc etc.


It should be over by Super Tuesday assuming Biden remains competitive (within 5-10%) in states that he loses. He should crush everyone in the South.

Iowa is going to be a shit show b/c the media is going to create some overarching narrative off of a remarkably small data set. If Klobuchar outperforms current polling, suddenly she's "viable." If Bernie wins, suddenly he can win the election. If Biden loses, "his campaign is over." Outside of a handful of pundits who understand polling (Silver, Cohn, Enten, etc.), the media is pretty irresponsible in this area.

Bernie has been an Independent for 30 years. You must be new to politics.

I repeat, Bernie Sanders is not a Democrat. The DNC wants a Democrat to win. They do not want Trump or Sanders to be president.

This isn't a conspiracy. The RNC doesn't want Bernie to win either, dingus.


I can't believe how the DNC allowed Bernie to fuck them over. Schumer should ensure that Sanders is not the ranking member of any committee, the DNC should not allow Bernie to have access to voter data, etc. You're either a Democrat or you're not.

He used all the DNC's resources but is still a registered independent. He's having his cake and eating it too. Sanders and Trump did the same thing but Trump actually stuck with the Republican party and the RNC tried to screw Trump MUCH more. Donald Trump is more loyal than Bernie Sanders.

Im just here to watch all R defend Trump with the following:
I dont know the guy
Talk to my lawyer
He wasn't really my lawyer
Its deep state control
He is a disgruntled ex employee
He was R now his part of CNN
Fake News
Even though elected by tRump, he's a criminal and can't be trusted.


Have i missed any?
Oh he didn't get due process.

Carry on

i should have been more specific. how does bernie using the DNC's resources translate to 'fucking them over'?

i mean, he's running as a democrat, he signed the democratic loyalty pledge, he's a member of the senate democratic caucus, and even though the DNC rigged the race against him in 2016, he not only endorsed her, but extensively campaigned for hillary clinton after her nomination. i just don't see how any of that is 'fucking THEM over'. HE plays by the rules, HE is transparent, how anyone would consider HIM the bad guy in this relation with the DNC is truly beyond me, so maybe you can help me understand...

That was one bad choice he shouldn't be held responsible on any cabinet appointments.

Because the DNC wants a Democrat to win and Bernie is weakening their candidates and probably cost them 2012.

Bolton is one. Education secretary was the first appointment she bought the seat.

Honestly there has only been a couple that weren't complete dudes.
