that center of the universe, Omaha! Who knew the Mayor of this small city had such power?

I guess we really should take the blame for convincing by telepathy (I can only assume) Bernie to do something so profoundly stupid as to draw attention to this rabid anti-choicer and throw a grenade into anything approaching unity and pissing off the base and the backbone of the party, the women who do all the damned work.

How naughty of us to make Bernie do these things against his will. Poor man, he has so little agency. We also made him state that our basic human rights are not an important thing for us to be "rigid" on, why can't we just let this great and infallible man simply rule over us with his perfection and holiness? Why must we use our witchy ways to make him do and say offensive things on camera and then double down on them?

It's all our fault, so say his most devoted followers, and we know they too are infallible, they can do no wrong ever, it's all us never, ever the holy one.
