    I got into politics more deeply than ever, going door to door for bernie back in '16. The verdict by the judge in 17 saying the DNC is a private entity caused me to no longer believe in the Dem’s primary process. The way HRC’s campaign wanted to control both her and trump coverage in the media, the podesta emails, and that whole related scandal really put a beat down on my whole belief system.

    So i kept reading and thinking and adjusting my political worldview and here i am, arguing it on a small forum on the web (or cynically working tirelessly to helpTrump win, depending on your pov)

      Bernie didn’t have a chance to win, that’s why Trump desperately wanted to run against him.

      He would have been great, but had no chance pulling in enough votes.

        The veracity of this comment aside, of course he didn’t have a chance, the DNC hand-selected Hillary.

        Why did you bring it up instead of what i brought up, the verdict in '17 saying the primaries were rigged?
