President Donald Trump’s effort to do as much as possible as quickly as possible to remake the federal government would gut agencies that have existed for decades or longer. His larger plans would remake elements of the government infrastructure that have been around for centuries.
The Democrats will use their propaganda arm at MSNBC and their army of talking heads to oppose it. I don’t think they have the guts to outright override voters. Democratic voters are fed up with the party in a way I don’t think we have seen before. I’m not giving up now.
On top of that, you have the kind of shenanigans they pulled in 2020 when Obama pulled strings to ensure Joe Biden had no competing moderates on Super Tuesday (of course, Warren stayed in).
And then there’s the fuckery in Iowa with the newly implemented voting app, connected to Pete’s family, that was only caught by Sanders supporters keeping an independent tally.
If you want to go even more conspiratorial, you can look at the huge discrepancies between pre-adjusted exit polling and the actual primary results.
They have no legal obligation, but they are not insane enough to override the winner of the primary. That is the one thing that could easily destroy the party. They will play their media games and I don’t doubt Obama could still pull strings for endorsements etc. All the rest of that is indeed conspiracy theory.
The DNC have complete, unilateral control over who they nominate. They don’t need to override any voters when all the candidates they offer you are just as toothless.
Not complete control. I’m absolutely certain that they would have preferred to keep Bernie out in 2016 and 2020. Besides being doomerism, that’s just not supported by the facts.
Bernie has been so useful to them, consistently, and they know he has no intention of disrupting the empire. He’s not a hawk, but he’s really good at keeping the war machine humming.
Sometimes I wish Bernie had won just so that people like you could have seen exactly how bad it would have been and lost all hope, but this is Bernie’s role, to sheepdog all the strays that would normally wonder off into revolutionary politics to make sure they firmly stay in the blue-no-matter-who camp, just waiting for the day that they’re definitely gonna kick that football
The Democratic party will never, ever let someone like this win the nomination.

The DNC made it fully clear in court that they have no obligation to voters over who their nominee is.
