Clearly you're ignoring the facts intentionally. Hillary didn't rig the primary. Brazile was wrong.

Any Trump supporters who whine about others being lying grifters just cannot be taken seriously.

I'm not a Trump supporter. More accurately, Hillary was a carpet bagger.

Indeed. When Bernie dropped out - not one negative ad had been taken out against him. Not one. Not by Hillary and not by Trump. Hillary because she didn't want to alienate his voters and Trump because he wanted to run against Bernie.

Bernie cost Hillary the election, IMO. He gave Trump ALL of his talking points.

Bannon is threatening the so-call establishment Republicans. They've loss their party. Poor Corker, McCain, Flake and others. So far Pelosi and Schumer have held their minions in check and have clearly differentiated the two political parties intentions.
That is how I saw it. Trump was just anti-everything I am FOR and Bernie was too pie-in-the-sky for me.

Which states did Hillary win that Bernie would have lost?

Must be a coincidence that her surname is that of one shamessly incompetent and corrupt nation-state right?

My state of Colorado would be a good bet. Yes, Bernie won the caucus here but he would have lost a primary and odds are good that purple Colorado would have gone red instead of blue in the general. This is by no means a solid blue state.

Yes, Bernie won and he would have lost because these people would have then listened to Trump?

Seriously? That's your argument?

Now if you want to argue that most (D)'s are war mongering corporatist's at heart, and that is how they would have voted, maybe then you have a point.

Any Democrat running against Trump would have lost. Trump had Russia's help in hacking at the ballot boxes.

Again, Brazile's book and her words IMO are a way to get the Clintons out of the DNC. Many Democrats feel it is best that Hillary go into the shadows. She's (Clinton) has been in the media too much lately. Brazile's article was both a "shut up" to Hillary Clinton and "sit down" along with a move to make herself some money, mostly from all these conservatives who salivate over anything negative spoken about the Clintons. As stated, she's a smart cookie.



I agree but don't think anything will happen like you all seem to believe.
This is one of the most hilarious post I have ever seen. The old-guard, RINO, Republican Establishment Elite absolutely LOATHES Trump and has viciously attacked him non-stop (one example: see what Bush Sr. and Jr. had to say about Trump in today's news).

Bernie did very well for himself, since he ended up with a $600,000 lakefront home - his 3rd house. He got his pay-off. So much for integrity.

As far as Donna Brazile, she has no right trying to come off as a horrified whistleblower. She is up to her neck in dirty dealings, not the least of which was feeding Hillary questions prior to the debate, and then lying about it. She has no right to act morally superior to anyone in this mess.
