Great piece, Frances! And I agree with you that, had she and DNC (Wasserman-Schultz and Brazil with their shenanigans primarily) thrown their support behind Bernie, there never would have been a Trump. But of course, it was all about her.
I'm sick and tired of this two-party shuffle in this damned country. And of course both the media and the Demoncrats are laying it on extra-thick for Genocide Joe, all while Bibi tells him "Kiss my ass, Joe!β while he ethnically-cleanses Gaza and Abbott says "Screw you, Joe!" as he brutalizes immigrants at the border. I won't even begin to talk about the economics of it all. He's continuing to enrich the 1%, particularly in the arms market (like Raytheon, Boeing, Lockheed-Martin, Northrop Grumman, Booz Allen, et al) with financial support in both these ongoing wars. Effective? I think not.
