NYT: Dem establishment will burn down the party to stop The Bern

Ed MorrisseyPosted at 12:01 pm on February 27, 2020

Bernie Sanders had better find a way to get a majority of first-ballot delegates for the Democratic convention. If he doesn’t, his plurality won’t suffice — if the party establishment has anything to say about it. And as the New York Times discovers, they do — quite a bit, in fact, and they may be past the point of caring about splitting the party. They will do anything to prevent a socialist takeover of the party, if it comes to that:

    Dozens of interviews with Democratic establishment leaders this week show that they are not just worried about Mr. Sanders’s candidacy, but are also willing to risk intraparty damage to stop his nomination at the national convention in July if they get the chance. Since Mr. Sanders’s victory in Nevada’s caucuses on Saturday, The Times has interviewed 93 party officials — all of them superdelegates, who could have a say on the nominee at the convention — and found overwhelming opposition to handing the Vermont senator the nomination if he arrived with the most delegates but fell short of a majority.

That is what the GOP said before Trump won the nomination.  I do not trust the rat establishment to stop the rise of their and America's destruction.

Go Bern!

Doesn't say much for Trump if you have to have the far left Communist nominated to win the election.  Trump should be able to win against all of them and should stay out of the deep, deep, dark Democratic election.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Of course they are.  So why do you say go Bern?  Why is Trump pushing Bernie?  Wanting to make sure they are fair to him?

Because Bernie is the candidate that will split the party if not completely burn it down like the article says.

The Establishment won't support him, his supporters won't vote for anyone else. He'll destroy the chances of the downballot, as well as keeping the House.

He's the George McGovern of the modern age.

The DNC is already rigging primary results to hinder or stop a Sanders nomination.
Every time Sanders wins, they refuse to release the results until they get a 'recount' of the votes.
And we all know what happens whenever a Democrat run group does a 'recount', their man always wins.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Vulcan writes of Komrade Bernie:

Compared to Bernie, McGovern was a patriot...  ;)
