You can bet they won’t let it happen again. Both parties have already been talking about how to stop future Bernie and Trumps. And you know they will. They thing only the elites (party doesn’t matter) should be able to “rule over us”. No more “governing” by the consent of the people if Trump loses.

Indeed. There will never be another outsider in the General, just as there was never another outsider in the debates since Perot. They just close the door.

As for this article...overly optimistic. Power does what it wants.

They need to learn their history. No system can survive without the consent of the governed.

It is still a matter of ballots for now. History shows that can change in even the most seemingly stable political systems.
