God I love how much of American government processes depends on some Gentlemen’s Agreement type of b.s. and how rapidly everything comes crashing to a halt when some openly corrupt crank enters the scene… who should have never been allowed to even run by the establishment, but was instead granted a wave of institutional support to foreclose upon a populist left movement.

fucking genius strategic plan, liberals. by fetishizing the process, you only expose and broadcast it’s fatal flaws.
