Sick.
Real quick though, FUCK ELIZABETH WARREN. Who gives a fuck what that slimeball endorses. We could have had Bernie and now we have the fourth Reich because of this piece of shit and Democrats like her.
Weird. I thought there was a huge vote before the Chee-to got in, where people could have chosen something so much better already but ...didn't. That must be Warren's fault personally as well.
Multiple people can be at fault
Do you or they have the power of being one of the first states to endorse a candidate or the power to convince other senators to endorse a candidate instead of the most popular choice?
To be fair, the cynic in me says Sanders never would have become president. Even if the DNC had let primaries take their natural course and Sanders had come out of it with the most electoral votes, then the DNC would have just brokered their convention and given it to Biden or Bloomberg anyway. If they somehow didn't do that and Bernie was the actual candidate from the D side, the mainstream media coverage of him would have all sounded like Fox News or Newsmax fluffing Trump. All his major media coverage would have been Marxist chicken-littling. If, even after all that, Bernie somehow won in November of 2020, he never would have made it to the inauguration. He (and his VP candidate) would have had a little accident, a la Jeffrey Epstein, Paul Wellstone, Vince Foster, Terrance Yeakey, etc.
I've said similar about Hillary winning in 2016. Republicans were already drawing up articles of impeachment. trump or no trump, the country had already fallen into a shithole sewer and was barely keeping it's head above water. Still would have been nice to see Sanders get the nod. Just for some glimmer of hope.
