    Sanders got cheated and still worked for the winners. Sanders did more speeches for Clinton than he did for himself on the campaign tour. Sanders knew that the DNC was the only major party that had a major chance defeat Trump.

      Yeah, the Democratic leadership is completely corrupt and inept at this point and they did every every progressive presidential candidate dirty these past decade. And yeah it’s really sad and sickening that even now they’re thrashing like crazy and doing everything they can to resist progressive influence, trying to keep their wealthy donors happy, look at what their trying to do with Hogg.

      But yeah, I do really agree with Sanders that Democrats, with all of their major character and leadership flaws, realistically is the only way to beat Trump and the Republicans.
