    I know the screenshot brigades can't be bothered to watch a 3 minute segment, but I said I was *not* alleging outright rigging, just that the DNC is using arbitrary criteria to disadvantage certain candidates (which Bennet/Steyer/Williamson have also said)https://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1165640388574470145 …

        And the idea that "rigging" would be portrayed as such a preposterous concept is interesting, considering everyone from Elizabeth Warren to Donna Brazile alleged that the previous primary was "rigged" (their term)

        “using arbitrary criteria to disadvantage certain candidates” not a bad description of “rigging” actually.

        "Rigging" implies a concerted, conscious effort to prop up a particular candidate and disadvantage their opponent, which is what happened in 2016

        They ARE rigging it. Polls should not be a measure to determine who is given the "chance" to be heard. Individual donations are a real metric. Polls not so much with their limited surveyed samples. Plus it seems they'll be now doubling down.https://news.yahoo.com/dnc-likely-to-raise-polling-threshold-for-november-debate-231504252.html …

        This is guaranteed to backfire on the DNC, and may lead to the shafted candidates ditching the DNC altogether and having their own debates, debates with depth and objective moderators.
