“Save democracy for the general election” was more or less the DNC’s approach to the 2016 primary. Might be a lesson or two from that round of elections? Also, half-baked sarcasm, though given I have a tiny baby instead of a sleep schedule, I have no idea if it worked!

Hillary won that primary by every metric you can name—number of votes cast, number of primaries won, number of pledged delegates. Her opponent was a career politician who was not even a member of the political party. I like Bernie (he was my congressman) but this is nonsense
