24. This is Sanders' responsibility. He could speak to them directly. He won't.

His campaign won't. Fighting numerous enemies (the "Democratic Establishment," any organization or person not endorsing him (in which case they become "establishment" and obviously corrupt)) who will stop at nothing to stop him is the foundation of his "movement." He can't tell his anti-establishment supporters not to fight against these evil enemies too.

GOP/Russians use what is already out there. They picked up the rigging nonsense and spread it. The stuff they make up doesn't work as well, like #DemExit. There has to be a rabbit in the hat before the magician can pull one out of a hat.

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