If the people actually do pick Bernie, the DNC folks who are against him don't have a lot of options.
In the scenario where the DNC "takes it away from him," he doesn't have it. Just like he didn't in 2016.
Oh, but that was "rigged".

I really don't want to keep ranting about this so I think I'm just going to start blocking. I can't make anyone vote, but I think it's irresponsible to hype up not voting or to spread the meme that anything but a Sanders victory is Erasing The Will Of The People.
If he wins he wins. If he doesn't win he doesn't win. If no one wins then he has another shot at winning that will come down in part to his ability to form coalitions and forge compromises. Hostage taking is not and should not be part of the process.
How many years have I been saying our way of life is not sustainable without the kind of reforms he's pushing? And now the coronavirus is making that even more starkly clear.
But even with that: getting Trump out is more important than getting Sanders in.
There is no do-over.

The rate of change is just going to keep accelerating. The Senate refused to convict him and the courts just said they won't hold him accountable because that's what impeachment is for.
If he wins the last election he can legitimately run in, there is nothing left to hold him.

If you can look at what he's doing about the coronavirus and think "well maybe I won't vote him out, to teach those party elites a lesson, so they'd better play ball" then I have nothing to say to you.
