    DNC hasn’t conducted a legitimate presidential primary since 08. That is EIGHTEEN straight years of effyou from the DNC. No signs they plan on wavering anytime soon. Your next candidate will be anointed for you.

      Just because you didn’t like the outcome of an election doesn’t mean it wasn’t legitimate.

        I’m too educated and perceptive to be gaslit that weakly. Take your garbage somewhere else please. Lincoln McAfee and Malty O’Marlin were fake candidates. And everyone saw Klobuchar, Buttegeig, and Harris coordinate together after the SC primary. Take your garbage somewhere else please.

      Eighteen?! HA! Luxury!

      We lost every state but Minnesota. Then we lost to an attack ad. Then we got a centrist. Then we lost to a war criminal. And that’s just the national stage! Our red state candidates were BMW-driving dockers-wearing Sales weasels from central casting with as many progressive ideas as mistresses.
