Hillary wont help them. And I bet she and they see it. Theyve screwed the pooch already. They need a Black Swan or theyre simply choosing how they want to lose.
If they bring in Hillary, the Bernie Bots walk...maybe they even vote Trump, some of them. This is 30-40% of their party right there. Thats above and beyond those that think Hillary is disgusting, another smaller chunk of their party. The resentment will destroy them. Theres no picking up the pieces in the aftermath.
If they let Bernie win to take a McGovern-like loss in the general (assuming no Black Swan event). They pick up the pieces in the aftermath.
If they get a Black Swan event (hello China), then Bernie could potentially deliver on their wildest dreams...or not, who knows...its all a crapshoot then.
Many of us have been predicting that the Deep State will crash the market right before the election.
And yes, they have done it before, and they can do it again.
