Man, fuck them, but these are all things I said at the time as well. And I was pissed enough at the time to throw away my vote on a third party in the general election. Bernie, ultimately, was not cheated in 2016 so much as we, the Dem electorate, failed him. That the DNC leadership are a bunch of cowardly, spineless, visionless corporate bootlicks more interested in holding onto their own power in the party than moving America forward is a footnote in this particular story.
