      Coney didn’t fuck everything up, the DNC did. The DNC pushed a wildly unpopular, and unrelatable candidate, while sabotaging Bernie, because they’d rather have trump than a socialist in charge.

        If only it was as pointed as all that. Repubs try to mobilize right populism for the benefit of the rich, and Dems try to redirect left populism for the rich. The DNC is practically mandated to neuter progressivism on behalf of donors.
