The primaries are not over,
Yes they are.

Losing hurts, doesn't it? That's not a good enough reason to want to kneecap our party's nominee, Joe Biden. That's not a good enough reason for the smears and attacks and LIES against the Democratic party. Those lies only create negativity and distrust and resentment. It weakens the party and empowers the GOP.

Negativity generates apathy. Apathy discourages voter turnout. Low voter turnout gives Republicans a chance to steal the elections.

That's not "democracy in action"... that's called sabotage.
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
