Democratic Primaries

New Deal era. Sanders can't insult Democrats without insulting any of the committed people and groups who make up the "Democratic establishment," sometimes referred to as our base in very different contexts. Of course.

No group is likely to notice the insult more than those like the gathering of black women activists, almost all Democrats, to whom Sanders said Democrats (ergo, them!) had "also" been packing the courts with rabid conservative bigots who were persecuting AA from the bench.

He'd been asked what he would do about the huge and growing problem of bigoted judges appointed by the Republicans and as usual grabbed the mention of Republican crimes to insist, "Anyway, the Democrats do it too."

I really doubt it took this long for most Democrats to get fed up with Sanders' constant lies and insults about them. Seems more likely it took actual voting to force the MSM to scramble for new explanations for their own dishonest themes. And likely for still more Democrats to finally realize that just maybe they should be insulted too.
