    Everyone says they did Bernie dirty in 2016, but no one ever brings up how in 2020, the establishment dems all dropped out of the race in exchange for cabinet positions to rally around the elder statesman Biden—when Bernie was winning the primaries.

    That, in my opinion, is far dirtier and a much bigger “fuck you” to leftists/progressives/humanists than 2016.

      I brought that up, literally minutes ago. 100%

      Biden was getting trounced. The party was *embarrassed *, so they made a bunch of backroom deals and sharpened their knives. Then Liz Warren stuck her blade in Sanders’ back on live TV.
