      Hey the DNC is a private org and the courts have affirned their right to run and rig their internal elections(which include primaries) anynway they want, including simpy ignoring the outcome. Idk why you think their self run elections are fair or free but thats a massive huff of copium.

      I have zero idea how you can look at the democratic party’s behavior, leadership and priorities over the past 20 years and believe this in good faith.

          I posted about this in another similar thread.

          Surely you can become a member of the democracy party and have a say in its direction?

          No one seemed interested in that suggestion.

          Also, Americans don’t seem to understand that the dems have become conservative because they’re trying to steal votes from the republicans. They can’t afford to differentiate because they already struggle to win.

      Somebody doesn’t know what a super delegate is. Or how the DNC is actually run. 🙄

          Like a business with executives at the top that have argued in court that what the constitutes want doesnt matter.

          Its mostly a massive political network that Dems used to push ineffective policy that won’t offend their billionaire donors like Mark Cuban based on old outdated ideas of austerity and altruism.

          Their primary function seems to be collect money from the vulnerable utilizing predatory donation collecting that results in seniors finding all their money “donated” and in bankruptcy.

          To ensure the constitutes can not force a change in the party the same way Trump did the DNC uses super delegates which are appointed automatically by holding various positions in the party itself. This prevents radical candidates like Bernie Sanders from getting the presidental nomination along with the fact they just ignore the will of the voters which they’ve argued in court successfully that they do.

          Seems to me the primary purpose of the Democrats right now is to waste people’s time fighting for ineffectual political policies that will be blocked by the single token “moderate” politician.

          They dont do a lot but what they do seems designed to prevent the left from winning.

          See the “abundance” agenda for an example of rightwing economic policies wrapped into a liberal dressing.
