I do not understand why Bernie Sanders supporters aren’t turning against the Dem establishment. Nothing has happened that will prevent their 2020 nomination from being rigged.

I know some. They despise Hillary and they researched all the crap about the Clintons and found out all the things we always knew about them. They do see the corruption, even if they don’t find anything wrong with socialism. They are the ones who, even though they are progressives, as they call themselves, actually see now how Hillary has tried to get rid of Trump. I consider this a good thing. You can’t slam people over the head and drag them to our side, but once they see how corrupt the Dems have been, but by bit, they will start to seek truth.

Oh, they are. If there is one group that despises the Clintons more than we do, it’s the Sanders folks. They know they were cheated and marginalized.

I know a couple of Bernie backers very well who are salivating at the idea of Hillary running again so they can extract some revenge. They blame her personally rather than the Dem establishment that let this happen.

How it happened is pretty interesting - according to Donna Brazile, the DNC was broke and Hillary bailed them out from her own pocketbook. She who pays the piper calls the tune, and control of the super-delegates will give her an automatic 15% edge. The DNC is reportedly once again in dire financial straits and it could very well happen again.

It's a typical Clinton money grab.

She knows she'll never be President.

I enjoyed the righteous indignation of Bernie voters against her, in 2016.
