I’m not sure what you mean by stole NH delegates.

...

When the party took away NHs say in the Dem primary for something only their Republican state government can control.

I mean. Technically NH Dems could violated state law to keep the DNC happy like they asked, are you saying that's what they should have done?

Because the most common sense explanation is they were made NH kept rejecting moderates like Clinton and Biden.

If we took over the party though, we could make it do whatever we wanted.

Which is what I'm saying to do, and if you haven't noticed, the more we vote "blue no matter who" the more conservative candidates we get.

Because the DNC thinks anything left of republicans have to vote for them. From that misguided assumption. The party keeps moving right

It's not working, it's never worked, and to keep trying it would be fucking insanity.

Yet here we are.

If we are really willing to sacrifice anything to stop trump, why won't Joe Biden and the DNC sacrifice anything they want?

Why do millions and millions of voters have to vote for someone they don't want? Why can't we run someone that agrees with the party platform and will work towards?

The party isn't the important part, voters are. No matter how much either party tells you differently.

A general election is still about votes
