So where were the DNC priorities? Giving Hillary the nomination or winning the election?
I thought it was shitty but Republicans would have done the same to Trump if his fan base wasn't so crazed.

The problem is, even though I liked Sanders he wasn't a Democrat he just ran on the ticket. Right or wrong it's sort of obvious that the DNC would side with someone like Hillary over Sanders.

It was a mistake and I knew it was a mistake when they did it and was pissed, but I understand why they did it..
