The Bad

But there's also a lot that hasn't gotten any better for Bernie since 2016.

First of all, the full resources of the Democratic Party's machines in every state as well as its donor caste will be mobilized in every primary to prevent Bernie from winning or minimize any victory.

This will include the panoply of cheating mechanisms that were at work in 2016, including blatant cheating in Nevada and Chicago, the suppression of likely Bernie votes ( 200,000 in New York, 750,000- 2 million in California), and of course the designed-for-fraud electronic voting systems that gave Hillary statistically anomalous victories in 2016-way beyond pre-election and exit polling and only in states with impossible-to-audit electronic voting machines.

I and many others have written about these scandalous, democracy-cancelling systems, and they have not gotten any better.


Will any or all of these stratagems be used to cheat Bernie again? Per Nick Brana, the national outreach coordinator for Bernie's 2016 campaign: "Absolutely. The people that I worked with, the Democratic Party institution that I worked with in 2016, will never allow Bernie Sanders to become President. They are going to cheat him again. It's going to be a repeat of 2016."
