30. The game is rigged, that is certain and not new.

Supporting only incumbents has been the DNC, DSCC and DCCC policy for a long time.

The DCCC and DSCC recruit DINOs to run, then the DSCC, DSCC and DNC make sure no one can primary them. Just ask Senators Lamont and Halter. Then, they tell us it's all because DINOs are more electible.
