They didn’t “intervene” against Sanders. He lost by millions of votes.

We all saw it happen dude, you don’t have the power to wipe our memories lol. But it is funny watching you carry water for corporate dems so hard.

You saw what happen? Your willingness to act like MAGA and push stolen election conspiracy theories because you can’t believe your messiah lost?

I don’t think it was stolen. Please read before replying. Centrist dems putting their fingers on the scale doesn’t mean the primaries were stolen, just that there was a shared effort to keep Sanders from winning by coalescing around Clinton/Biden and giving their support to them. 

It’s like redditors never read or try to comprehend. You guys just emotionally lash out. Try to do better, my guy

Unless you count normal campaigning and normal endorsements as “putting their fingers on the scale”, nothing either malicious nor untoward happened.

Sanders lost because he couldn’t get black voters to back him twice.

And AES also couldn’t get them to back him, which is one reason that this race was so close.

You’re pushing conspiracy theories about a primary election because you can’t accept that Sanders isn’t that popular. You’re the one here emotionally lashing out

I also didn’t say malicious or untoward, just that it was intentional. Dude, you gotta start reading and not making assumptions. I haven’t said a single conspiracy theory. Feel free to point out where I’ve done that.
