Democrats can only maintain their position as controlled opposition if they control the party and can override primaries. If the people actually get a choice, then they become the people’s party and stand in opposition to the billionaire class.
We would have class war and eventually develop a strong state, similar to China, where billionaires get life sentences for bribery and can be fined and jailed for trying to undermine the state. China is so strict that it treats corrupt billionaires and government officials like we treat terrorists. There’s no legal maneuvering. They freeze your legal rights to conduct the investigation and trial, so that you cannot continue your corruption. China is a true state where leaders run the government, not businesses, whereas the United States is an oligarchy devolving into a system where private business owners run the government (fascism).


She should retire, but I understand why they keep her around and that she wants to give the presidency another try. She doesn’t have a platform to run on, at least I haven’t heard one.
She’s going to compete in the primary, and following her loss she’s going to drop out and hand her delegates over to the next establishment democrat in exchange for whatever consolation prize that she wants (probably a Supreme Court appointment). She’ll be the only living person to serve in all three branches of the federal government.
