Hillary had the most flawed candidate in history to run against and still lost.All those staffers BS about what they might do means nothing and wasserman's opinion is a joke. Just what you would expect from party bureaucrats when they had a obvious candidate. Just typical politics, but you still have to vote in primaries. Sanders could easily have have won...All this crap about rigging the election against Sanders, what a load of BS. DNC was fairly powerless, and in the end the voting went on and was counted honestly. Our media blew up this kind of crap until Hillary lost the election.Why bother colluding when the Russians were doing just great on their own? However it appears they never reported any of this to law enforcement... Maybe we should all wait until the Mueller report comes out for crying out loud. Our media is a joke, 3 years of gabbing about nothing...Glad you're man enough to admit, none were related to collusion.
No Sanders could have never won. The fact remains that Hillary Clinton waxed Bernie Sander's tail by 3,775,437 real Democrat primary popular votes. In comparison Obama defeated Hillary Clinton in 2008 by a mere 41,622 Democrat popular votes, and she wasn't running around referring to it as a rigged election.

Sanders was winning the caucus states, where underdogs usually win, because less than 1% of either party shows up on a cold Tuesday night to sit around a 3 hour meeting to cast a vote. In fact I consider the caucus the prime example of voter disenfranchisement in this country as it eliminate so many from voting. (Overseas military, parents with young children who can't get a babysitter, people who are sick or hospitalized, and people who work on Tuesday nights.) If those had been primary states that allowed 2 weeks of voting, mail-in ballots, etc Sanders would have lost them all and been forced out very early.
In fact I blame Bernie Sanders for his hand in Hillary Clinton's loss. Even after getting his ass kicked in New York with no possible way of winning, he refused to drop out of the race, and at that point he might as well been working for the Trump campaign. Even after every single vote was counted, he had to get booed by house Democrats and a swift kick in the ass from Obama to officially drop out and endorse Hillary Clinton.
Sanders booed by House Democrats
One thing for certain, the DNC is NEVER going to let anyone change their party status just so they can run on their ticket again. Bernie Sanders turned out to be a major disaster for them, that probably cost Hillary Clinton the election.

There's not too much difference between the right wing of the Republican party & the left wing of the Democrat party.
They often fall prey to politicians that are promising things that don't have a snow balls chance in hell of ever getting through congress and signed into law. They still don't realize that the overwhelming majority of the voting population are center. It's been center since it's founding, and it will remain center. As evidenced by the 2018 midterm it was blue dog Democrats--moderates--that were kicking ass, not liberal Democrats.
Trump's 1000 mile wall that Mexico was going to pay for was about as realistic as Bernie Sander's free college education for everyone.
Hillary actually got the most votes. Blue dog democrats are conservatives. Democrats from a wide spectrum won.
