Nonetheless, he did not „win“ the primaries - because the head of the DNC, the Clinton-shill Debbie Wasserman Schultz had sabotaged Sanders’s chances. That got exposed through the Wikileaks emails, so DWS had to resign in disgrace. If Clinton wouldn’t have been an arrogant, condescending dumbfuck, she would at least have „claimed“ to be „outraged“ at what DWS had done (because it was OBVIOUS foul play).
