If Sanders supporters complained about other things the way they complain about election results
CHESS:
This game is rigged. The pawns get to move almost NOWHERE, whereas the QUEEN (DETECT ANY RESEMBLANCE HERE???) can just move wherever she likes with no apparent rhyme or reason. Shes not a bishop or a rook. Why does she move like one? Also, the black pieces have to move second, which is TOTALLY unfair and needs to be looked into, unless I am playing with the white pieces today.
SCRABBLE:
I played exactly the same word as my opponent, using exactly the same letters, and received fewer points for it just because I wasnt on some pink square, which my opponent claimed gave you DOUBLE the points. Pretty sure thats the definition of rigged. Why would you just randomly have squares all over the board that counted for MORE or FEWER points when its just the same words? Also my opponent had two BLANK tiles, which just got to be WHATEVER letters she wanted. This seems made-up. Milton Bradley are shills who are trying to prevent the revolution. Also, BERN is totally a word.

Where do I even start with this? I am literally shaking as I type. This game is a travesty. Just because my opponent got two blue properties, she got to charge me INSANE AMOUNTS whenever I landed on them? I didnt ASK to stay in her Park Place hotel. I would gladly sleep outdoors beneath a tent and keep my integrity, but this option was not provided.
