There's a pretty easy way to reconcile this - run a fair primary election. Rigging it against Sanders in 2016, and not running one at all in 2024, both expectedly led to disaster. You're never gonna win if you don't even have the full support of your own party.

- SauciestGNU 1y agoI feel like this is a correction made if not in bad faith then to muddy the waters. Some states held primary elections, others canceled them, and the incumbent didn't participate in any meaningful way. So yes, many states held 2024 dem primary elections, but not all the states, and the party did not treat it as a legitimate primary.
