    Sanders supporters literally sued the DNC and the case was dismissed by DNC legal counsel arguing they were under no obligation to enact the will of the people and had every right to make backroom Deals in dark rooms filled with cigar smoke and rich old men. We are living in fascism right now. Both parties are owned by the same wall street military and prison industry profiteers who also control all the main stream legacy media outlets. The idea that our democratic system still functions is foolishly naive

      Lawyers argue the easiest route they have. They’re there to win a case, not have a debate and sway an audience to their righteousness. If the party is under no obligation to be fair, that’s an easy solution and they don’t need to make more difficult subjective arguments about fairness.
