Lousy argument during primaries. It’s the kind of argument that gave us a Hillary candidacy when anyone who wasn’t deluded knew she’d lose. (An anti-establishment platform against the one person who embodies “the establishment”- and not in a good way?)
It’s the kind of argument that gives us fucking manchin or menendez, too.
But making that argument during the primary? Before the nominee has ever been decided? Naw. If they were serious, it wouldn’t matter so much and they’d let the best candidate win.
You don’t see the motivation to push your preferred candidate onto people? To manipulate people who disagree with that choice?
Or to manipulate an entire base?
Oh no, they manipulated the entire democratic base to vote democratic!
Great argument on the day of the Election Day.
