IMO because they know she will not win against Trump. Why else would they want to anger Bernie supporters to they point where they won't turn out for Clinton?

If anyone thinks this divide is just going on here at DU, I suggest you expand your reading to where millennials and many independents and republicans voting dem are posting. They are angry. Not only at the establishment, but at they way they and Bernie have been dismissed by MSM. If they think people are going to just fall in line, they are underestimating, just like they underestimated Bernie's campaign.
