You guys need to get over the whole Bernie thing.
He didn’t win the primary.
Yes, because the DNC did everything it could to mske sure he didn’t win the primary.
Remember Debbie Wasserman Schultz? Unfortunately, I do.
He was on every single ballot. Every one. I voted for him. He didn’t win, not because the DNC screwed him, but because THE VOTERS DIDN’T VOTE FOR HIM.
