Bernie fans, the Democrat elite is laughing at you. Oh sure, they talk a good game about how the Sanders campaign was "good for the party" or "a sign of strength and diverse ideas," but deep down you know the truth. You socialist mooks are, at best, a sideshow act - and you always have been. Bernie was never going to be allowed to take the nomination, because the DNC was always in the tank for Hillary.
Your opinions didn't really matter. It was "her turn." She was selected and you were all just pawns in a grand piece of political theater.A document to the DNC dated May 26, 2015 — a month after Sanders kicked off his presidential bid — declared that “our goals & strategy” are to “provide a contrast between the GOP field and HRC.” HRC stands for Hillary Rodham Clinton. The document, posted online by the hacker “Guccifer 2.0,” outlines ways to hit back at the GOP presidential field, such as “use specific hits to muddy the waters around ethics, transparency and campaign finance attacks on HRC.”
some Sanders backers say the document shows what they’ve felt all along: The system was rigged in favor of Clinton. “With proof that #Bernie never even had a chance, I shall double down and vote #BernieOrBust in Nov. @TheDemocrats,” tweeted a Sanders supporter from Chicago. Sanders has declined to drop out of the Democratic primary race. Among his demands to Clinton and the Democratic National Committee: Oust DNC leader Debbie Wasserman Schultz and get rid of superdelegates.
