    Seriously, explain to me what it is you think was done to him and why it was wrong. Pushing Biden because they wanted someone other than Bernie to win and thought he had the best chance isn’t dirty politics. That’s just regular politics.

      Oh, no, I was commenting on how every other time this was brought up, the stock answer was “nothing happened, that’s a conspiracy theory, stop making stuff up”, then when there’s evidence, it flips to “of course, everyone knew that, that’s normal, why would this surprise anyone?”

        I’ve literally never heard anyone say that moderates unifying behind Biden was a conspiracy theory. It’s not only patently obvious but so utterly mundane it doesn’t even make any sense to deny. I’m almost certain news stories at the time specifically said they dropped out to unify behind Biden and counter Bernie.
