jmyrlefuller.....Who does the machine support? Right now, I don't see anyone. This looks like 2004, when they're just going to sit back and let the strongest candidate win. They can't afford to foist a candidate on the party and lose to Trump again. They need power to survive.
I think this is a true statement, but what you are refusing you recognize is that Clinton is sitting on billions, and if you do not think that makes her an extremely powerful candidate, you are wrong. And there are folks here saying they want Trump to win again with a focus on preparing for 2024. Who knows, maybe some truth there.
But I tell you, when she wins the first 3-4 primaries, half of those running drop out, for they will see the writing on the wall. Again, money does matter. and for those of you saying she no longer has a base, there is nothing to indicate that. Nothing. There are plenty of people with reservations in her regard, but once she starts winning, and the media sings her praises, the party is over. And any of you that think the DNC will not once again do just as they did in 2016, your mistaken. They will do everything once she is halfway through to help her over the primary finish line.
Remember, history repeats itself.
