Sanders allies in new uproar over DNC convention appointments (John Podesta was added to committee)
The Hill ^ | 01/28/20 | Jonathan Easley

Posted on 01/28/2020 2:40:03 PM PST by blueyon

Some Democratic National Committee (DNC) members and supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) are venting frustration at DNC Chairman Tom Perez over his initial appointments to the committees that will oversee the rules and party platform at the nominating convention in Milwaukee later this year.

Sanders’s allies are incensed by two names in particular: former Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), who will co-chair the rules committee, and Hillary Clinton’s former campaign chairman John Podesta, who will have a seat on that committee.

If Bernie wins, the DNC loses massively and is tainted for a generation.

If Bernie loses, the DNC is torn apart and a third party forms. The DNC is destroyed for a generation.

When you see names like Barney Frank, Tom Perez and John Podesta you just know the scum rises to the top. I like how they ressurrect the old Scum like (Barney Frank) so they get an encore to screw the old constituency one last time.

Even when it is blatant by the DEMs, no one will stop them.

There's nothing wrong with the DNC screwing Bernie.

He's a sanctimonious jerk who insists on serving in the U.S. Senate as an independent, then changes his registration to "Democrat" every four years just so he can run for the party's nomination in a presidential election.

Wishful thinking on your part. I guess it could happen if Bernie thinks this is his last shot at the presidency, and going third part, even as a long shot, might satisfy that itch.

“Maybe Web Hubble’s daughter???”

LOL Wouldn’t that be hilarious? A mother-daughter President-Vice President combo? Then we could get them impeached simultaneously. Plenty of well documented corruption on both parts. Right.

I think they might have had some scheme to get Hillary on the Democratic ticket with a brokered convention (super delegates can’t vote on the first ballot this time). They seem to have thrown Biden, the expected nominee, under the bus too soon (before he could get enough delegates), so Bernie is going to win the nomination outright (he has the momentum right now for NH, Iowa and NC and that gives him a big lead). We’ll see.

What’s so fun to watch is the fact the Rats have no good options, all their candidates S*CK and they know it!

And 120 year old gay pervert Bawny Fwank has been appointed to a leadership role!?! That’s hilarious, I love it!

I’m looking forward to the Bernie Bots going completely insane and rioting when the DNC once again tries to screw Bernie.

Question : How has Kankles paid off the DNC and where did she get the money? Her ability to raise money has gone off a cliff.

She’s a total LOSER, and her “Evening With Bill and Hillary Tour” was a massive failure. Trump was right when he said “Nobody likes Hillary. That’s why she lost.”

John Podesta and his Clinton masters are beholden to George Soros. They are evil, marxist operators, intent on destroying Western Civilization. They must be stopped.

The die is cast. Hillary is going to be Democrat nominee.
