...a "People's Convention" on August 30. One of the items on their agenda is to conduct a vote about starting a new party, the "People's Party".
Detroit, MI One week after the Democratic and Republican national conventions, Bernie 2020 National Co-Chair Sen. Nina Turner and Bernie 2020 surrogate Dr. Cornel West will join the Movement for a Peoples Party to headline The Peoples Convention.
At the conclusion, participants will vote on forming a major new political party free of corporate money and influence.

She and anyone else involved in this should be stripped of their DNC membership and Super Delegate status (she is both a DNC member and Super Delegate as of now)

How long does she get to call herself "Senator Nina Turner"?? At most, it should be "STATE Senator"

The only time she won was after she was appointed to an empty seat, then "re"-elected as incumbent.

Nina Turner is pathetic... and so is anyone and any group that she is associated with.
