Yesterday on the radio, Katrina vanden Heuvel made the remark that since Independents are now a larger constituency than Democrats, it is political suicide to alienate the Bernie supporters.

So go ahead, commit political suicide. Enjoy your Trumpy world through 2024 because you sure are doing your best to alienate independents.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

Polls. KPN Jan 2020 #31

Hundreds of links pick one. KPN Jan 2020 #39

His polling average is around 20% for the Dem primaries Bradical79 Jan 2020 #85
