Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumTrump Defends Bernie Sanders On Russian Election Interference 😲
Trump is trying to split Democrats because he knows that he cant beat a united party. In this respect, he and Sen. Sanders share a goal. The Sanders strategy is to try to win the Democratic nomination in a split party with only his base of support
The idea that Sanders couldnt say anything because the briefing was classified is nonsense. Presidential candidates dont get classified briefings until they are the nominee. Sanders would have been briefed on the interference as a candidate, not a senator.
If the briefing were classified, it still would have been classified after the media reported it. Media reports dont declassify information. Sanders or his campaign have never said that the briefing was classified. Even if the briefing classified, it wouldnt prevent Sanders from talking

The polls are to unrealistic to believe he is winning everywhere Polls are being rigged our opinion ..2016 again...

(6,960 posts)What is happening to the party of the "forever young president"?
John Kennedy; Carter; Clinton; Obama -- Democrats win with vigorous, sharp, 'younger' nominees.
Now the party of gerontocracy?

(32,017 posts)The Great Pumpkin only comes to the most sincere pumpkin patch, and Trump is nothing if not sincere, don'tcha know. He just wants an open and fair process. He's speaking out, in good faith, about how Bernie is getting screwed by the Democratic establishment. I mean ... obviously. That's why Bernie is leading in most recent polls.
How dare you suggest that the motives of the Great Pumpkin are anything but pure! Bless his little heart.

(68,469 posts)primaries so sadly for you and other supporters...his numbers are suspect and without an overwhelming win ...he can't be the nominee if it comes to a brokered convention where a different nominee emerges so bit it... our only chance really as Sanders will lose 35 states and likely the house. Also, Carolina is where Biden will emerge and super Tuesday...the Russian thing will be felt by then...and Sander does not have a good lead anyway.

(11,834 posts)Bernie was briefed about interference in his campaign and kept it secret.
That is NOT the leadership I am looking for.
Also IMHO... his campaign staff is running him and not the other way around. We already have one of these.
NO THANKS.

(90,304 posts)... the time he rose in the polls is the time he was told he was being helped.
I'm sure the help was etablished before he was told but he had everything politically to gain by saying something and now it looks like his silence got him the positions in IA and NH...

(44,984 posts)I want to know what Democratic leadership, you know who they are, the leaders of our party. I want to know what they think of this. Were they briefed when Bernie was? If so, since this leak, if it was classified, their silence has fucking been deafening. I want to know what MY Democratic leaders are doing and saying about it.

(44,984 posts)I had the audacity to ask if Dem leadership knew, if it wasn't classified why haven't they said anything. I want to know what my leaders have to say about this.
Our Democratic leadership has everything to do with Russian meddling in any fucking thing related to our United States elections.
You don't like what I said, I'm so sorry, I'm out of fucks to give. If I find one I'll think about passing it over.
