Party Politics: Every day there are stories about how deeply troubled the Republican Party is with Donald Trump as its presumptive candidate. But, if anything, the Democratic Party is in far worse shape.
Think about it. Democrats still can't decide if Hillary Clinton is electable - in fact, her support has diminished as the primary season has dragged on. There are fears of a party revolt by Bernie Sanders supporters at the July convention, and theres a huge rift forming between two of its major factions. Plus, polls show that the supposedly can't-possibly-win Donald Trump is now close to Clinton.

Meanwhile, the party is increasingly worried that Sanders supporters, feeling they had the nomination snatched from them by a rigged system, could stage damaging protests at the partys convention, after his supporters turned a Nevada state Democratic convention into a chaotic mess.

If that werent enough, a major fight has developed between two of the Democratic Partys most important constituencies - rich environmentalists and labor unions.

Reality is that Obama has no cards to play, so there’ll be no standoff.
Hillary’s the nominee, regardless of how much Obama might dislike it.
Either one would be grist for Trump’s mill. Bernie may be big in college campuses but he hasn’t had any real attacks. Hillary doesn’t dare attack Bernie for being a leftist, because that’s the Democrat base. Trump can. What Trump has done to Hillary’s lead in a few weeks he would do to Bernie also. However, while Bernie is an deranged socialist, Hillary is a dangerous sociopath. If Bernie somehow won, he would never get his agenda passed. Hillary would use have the coopereation of the uniparty crony capitalist establishment and be utterly ruthless.
If Trump was paying Sanders to hassle Hillary he’d certainly be happy with his investment.
He has no chance of winning the nomination.
That is what they said about Jesse Ventura when he rancor over or of Minnesota.
He won, and was a total disaster.
Watch the RCP Clinton vs. Trump poll. Here is the Last 3 Months version. Note the trend in Trump's favor. If this continues and holds we will win. I think that is what is going to happen.
Their fear?
The Truth.
The Truth would put them both in jail.
Yep, Obama has no intention of allowing the Clintons back into the WH. He doesn't like Bernie either. I don't think Obama wants ANY Democrat, including Biden, as President.
Remember, Barack is a community organizer, agitator extraordinaire, and requires an enemy IN POWER, to be able to lead his cabal.
Barack doesn't care one whit for the Democrat party. The party has nothing to offer him moving forward. He has destroyed the party, and I think it is deliberate. Obama wants to lead a world-wide leftist movement, better to have the enemy in the WH.
-—She is so corrupt, so sick and unlikeable-—
yes
Sanders is not going to be the nominee of the Democrat Party unless something happens to Hillary or she gets beaten badly in Calif.
Every poll out there has a 10% bias against Trump and will until the election. They do the same thing every election for the Dems.
Pray America wakes
Do you regard both alternatives as highly unlikely? I think they are reasonably likely to happen.
Let the dems savage one another. The more brutal they are to each other the better off we are.
“he didnt organically rise to power from his own innate talents”
He didn’t build that!
