    Are you implying there was a Democratic presedential primary that didn’t break it’s own rules to make sure Biden was the only candidate on the ballot (edit) in many states (/edit)?

    If so, you’re living in a fantasy.

    This is the one-two step for Democratic party apologists.

    1. Blame leftists for their lack of representation in the party.

    2. Rig the processes to make sure that the left wing of the party has no internal representation.

    3. Goto step one.

    The best part of this dance from their view? Internal party politics and processes are boring, and the media won’t cover it when they cheat.

      No. The presidential incumbent primary is a joke. I’m referring to the congressional primary that saw less than 20% attendance. Congress is the primary approval for military aid for Israel. POTUS can use drawdown power, but that can be challenged by Congress.

      We have three branches of government, two of which are elected, yet people pretend we have one vote every four years.
