If only Americans had voted for Hilary Clinton, things would totally be different!?!?!?!
Or, if the DNC hadn't forced the American middle class to PAY a larger percentage of their income then multi-billionaire DNC donors? Or, had they not supported all of the unnecessary wars that bankrupted America but enriched all of their friends in the military industrial complex? Or, if the DNC under B. Clinton hadn't imprisoned the most people EVER in a first world country (which coincidentally were overwhelming black and brown people)? Or, if they had not further hollowed out the middle class with trade agreements that favored offshoring jobs to destroy unions & coincidentally benefited the DNC'$ donor friends. Or, if the DNC hadn't fully embraced the same neoliberalism that made offshoring all of those jobs not only possible but extremely profitable at the expense of workers for the benefit of a few. Or, if the DNC had not helped to destabilize governments all over the world that coincidentally enriched their donor's international corporations while also coincidentally driving up a massive refugee crisis with the very people they forced from their homes by those same corporate friendly policies that caused the sad & desperate mass exodus of refugees. Or, all the neoliberal broken promises and lies that led to the election of Trump in the first place.
BUT, other than that, Clinton wouldn't have totally done exactly what Biden or Obama did for all the same reasons such as the Military industrial complex, Israel, Ukraine and of course the donors.
Nope, we'd ALL be enjoying brunch in Hillary Clinton's Neoliberal Paradise!!!!!!!!!!!
The system works.

The DNC loves Trump as a way to punish the working class for asking for anything whatsoever that would affect their billionaire donors. 40 years of Neoliberalism has left everyone so desperate that DNC tinkering around the edges, is meaningless. Eventually, after 40 years of failed promises from the DNC to the working class, they're seeing if a strong man is able to deliver at the expense of the most vulnerable in our society, which is the promise of ALL fascists. Trump won't deliver obviously, BUT more importantly his failure will drive the working class back to Corporate Democrats who will offer a kinder version of the same Billionaire friendly agenda with the threat of more authoritarian GOP policies if they dare question their corporate Masters. The sad reality is that the DNC doesn't care if Trump gets elected 3 more times, what they're really concerned about is if Bernie Sanders was to give Americans universal health Care that would cost the insurance industry trillions, if Bernie Sanders would actually educate Americans, which would cost the universities trillions if Bernie was to transition to a green economy which would cost the oil Barons trillions, If Bernie was to stop endless Wars + scale back the military industrial Complex which would cost the War Pigs more than tens of trillions of dollars.
Obviously, they'd have Bernie's ass MLK'd long before he got anywhere near doing any of that But it's easier to put in a charlatan like Trump as a grim reminder that the American people only have two choices, a clown Rodeo show fascist that would take away every right the moment he thinks he can do it OR a corporate kleptocracy of Liberal oligarchs who will gamble everyone's human rights and WW3 for their ability to exploit every one in the working class to their advantage and to destroy the entire world environment so that they can go from super wealthy to insanely depraved wealthy.

VOTE 3RD PARTY! OR: WHY I'M NOT AFRAID OF TRUMP'S SECOND TERM and why I'm more afraid of being complicit in the genocide of Gaza, rather than all the horrible stuff that Trump will probably do BUT that the DNC will also likely do, even if its slightly less. (let's remember that Biden ran on an immigration policy that wasn't barbaric but then completely changed and supported laws that are not legal under international law the moment things became inconvenient)
I'm starting to think a second Trump presidency might be in everyone's best interest?!?! Seriously. If Harris is elected then everyone gets to go back to brunch and pretend that democracy is ok. A Harris presidency would reward the DNC for being corrupt, breaking all its promises to the Left, people still in cages, refugees dying at the border, failure on climate policy, failure on green infrastructure, failure on voting rights, failure on a public opinion for healtcare, failure on police reform, failure on $15 min wage, failure to hold Saudi Arabia accountable, failure to not drill for Oil on federal land, failure in Gaza, failure on Lebanon, failure not to reinstate the Iranian nuclear deal (could you imagine had the USA actually done anything that they promised, the actual leverage America would have over Iran because of the economic implications, rather than the empty promises and dead bodies across the Muslim world!?!? ), failure in Afghanistan, failure to not escalate hostility with China, continuing to promote the proxy war against Russia, FAILURE ON VICTIMS OF HURRICANE HELENA THAT FEMA "MIGHT" GIVE $700 FOR GROCERIES, WHILE THERE'S ALMOST 200 CONFIRMED THAT AMERICANS AND HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS MORE MISSING NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO CONCEIVABLE PLAN THAT WILL MAKE THAT REGION HABITABLE AGAIN FOR THE MILLION PLUS AMERICANS DISPLACED BY THE DISASTER . ALL WHILE HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ARE SENT ABROAD TO SLAUGHTER INNOCENT CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY'RE BROWN MUSLIM'S AND THEREFORE HAVE NO HUMAN RIGHTS. etc.....
However, if Trump is re-elected everyone will magically remember that children are still dying in detention, democracy is under direct threat, the world's climate is still burning and at least Trump says he would try to end the war in Ukraine (obviously Trump would nuke Ukraine for a nickel but the fact he even suggested peace is better than the DNC's current pro WW3 stance).

@dioncuevas6600 agreed. I think that he would have handily won against Trump and they could have even made sure she was vice president so that they can keep all the money and pretend that there was some sort of democracy or whatever. However, I think the bigger concern is that by avoiding any kind of primary or anything that resembles representative democracy, they're able to avoid having to answer for the slaughter of tens of thousands of innocent children in Palestine so that Netanyahu can avoid jail for just a little bit longer while risking world War 3. Just so this elderly criminal can use Israeli, Canadian & American hostages as a political football to avoid the consequence of being corrupt. Not to mention the fact that The DNC understands that Ukraine is 110% going to lose this war as there is no way they can win against a nuclear power without literally bringing us to The end of civilization in the form of nuclear Armageddon. They just need to get past this election so that they don't have to tell the American people that they've wasted hundreds of billions of dollars & hundreds of thousands of Russian and Ukrainian lives for no f**** reason. Just so that Joe Biden could pretend he was a big man as his brain turned to goo. Also, there's the fact, the economy has been thrown under the bus so that corporations can continue to rape the American people for record profits of gouging everyone. Inflation is a direct result of the well-documented facts and the DNC will continue to support that because that is the donor class that keeps them afloat. While the corporate media who are invested with these same billionaires will continue to clap like the train seals that they are.
Walz seems like a decent man and I hope he is able to make some sort of significant addition to Kamala, who is an empty husk to be filled with corporate greed BUT as you may have guessed, I have my reservations.
Sadly, there has been many Americans with an outstanding commitment to civilization, the future and our fellow citizens, people alike. Milk, JFK, RFK, Martin Luther King, Malcolm x, and let's not forget all of the world leaders who have been tortured, assassinated, their country's decimated trade and or financial machinations of the establishment through the last 70 years of neoliberal domination from America. All of them fought to do the right thing, however, unfortunately, there's a trend there...........

Trump is the inevitable blowback of 40 years of Neoliberal DNC's broken promises that has seen a massive decline in the standard of living of the overwhelming majority of Americans.
I think the most important thing is to remember, all of Biden's broken 2020 campaign promises like a $15 minimum wage, public option for healthcare, not to issue any oil drilling on federal lands(Let alone the most ever), fully funded infrastructure package rather than gutting it for corporate oil lobbyists, voting rights act for George Floyd, not putting refugees in cages let alone keeping Trump's border policies, not one more mile of Trump's border wall (yup billions more), making Saudi Arabia's MBS pay for the murder of TWO American journalists, cynically cancelling student debt in a way that he knew SCOTUS would stop in a way he could cynically send people back to the polls.
Once in government the DNC crushed the rail workers movement, forcing them back to work for the audacity of asking for a single day off?! continuing to ignore the Flint water crisis, also, let's not forget the absolute f**** tragedy that is East Palestine rail chemical disaster that the people there still continue to suffer from. Also, rather than trying to deal in a humane and sensible immigration reform, Biden totally capitulated to the far right view of further militarizing the border while not getting anything for people who've been in the country for decades, resolving nothing except to move the conversation towards the anti-immigration crowd. Expanding the military industrial complexes budget with zero accountability for the fact they don't know where the money went and expanding the nuclear Arsenal while dropping all of the non nuclear prolification agreements. I can keep going on and on and on but none of this should surprise anyone. Biden has been one of the most corporate captured and Republican friendly Senators of all time, with a record that shows nothing except total complicity in selling out the American people for political & personal gain. His administration is the perfect embodiment of the DNC's worldview, campaign to the center, Rule to the Right. Reward the donor's, ensure the protection of Israel so that Netanyahu can break every single possible crime against humanity. Biden undermined any possible peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia costing hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides , which at the end of this I guarantee will be the exact same place as to where the original land agreement was.. Oh, yeah, let's not forget the only thing that he was involved in with Obama that actually was helpful, like normalization of relations with Cuba, or Iran?!? Once elected he didn't do anything on those fronts either because it was more important to him to ingratiate himself with right-wing corporate media than to spend political capital on the things he campaigned on to do the right thing that would have actually helped the people in those countries as well as the USA in terms of trade and having any, what's so f**** ever credibility on the world stage?!?! Could you imagine how much more important it would be to have Iran in the world economic system right now so that they had something to lose?!??
I get why the DNC pushed him over Bernie Sanders, clearly Biden's hubris and ignorance was easy to manipulate his foreign policy agenda in the Israeli direction unlike Obama, who was smarter than that. The fact Biden was an avowed "Zionist" was just icing on the cake! Unfortunately, Hamas 's October 7th attack totally destroyed Netanyahu's narrative that his support of Hamas as a way to destabilize Palestine as a whole would guarantee the greater security to everyone in the region was proven extremely false, now sadly those chickens have come home to roost for not only all of those slaughtered children, but the rest of us who have to deal with the policy failures of a demented old man & The DNC political establishment that prioritized its own personal gains, profit and exploitation of the region over the geopolitical goals of the states for the next hundred years.
I bring all this up because of his first choice as president, he picked Kamala Harris as his running mate. My belief is that it was because she was a failure running for president and he knew that he was such a weak candidate that he couldn't withstand any kind of political talent from anyone else, whatsoever and she certainly fulfilled that goal. Also, the DNC knew that she was such a weak candidate as well, that she would never, under any circumstances talk back or have any kind of spine or political beliefs whatsoever that could complicate their commitment to the donor class. More importantly, Kamala would n't have any shame whatsoever because she believes in nothing at all. The DNC had assembled the perfect team of ambition without ideology, an ability to change opinion on fundamental issues without a hint of shame and most importantly of all, a complete and total disregard for everyone except for themselves.
Obviously, the DNC knew that this would be extremely unpalatable to the American people, but Trump is the gift that keeps on giving! His total disregard for the norms which give the false pretense that Washington DC isn't just a total grift to extract $ from the working class while giving it to the 1% and ensuring that they never, under any circumstance, ever, pay any consequences for their incompetence, corruption and or complete and total criminality in terms of hundreds, if not millions of people's lives. Unfortunately, Trump's grotesque incompetence, paled in comparison to the DNC's choice to TWICE cheat the American people out of their ACTUAL legitimate choice Bernie Sanders & forced literally the worst neoliberalism corporate HACK of ALL TIME Corporate Joe in a desperate attempt to use Trump's incompetence to hide their total contempt for the working classes rejection of the Neoliberal agenda.
Trump is the inevitable blowback to 40 years of neoliberalism brought to you by the DNC and they're failure to deliver the basics. If the party of "democracy" only manages to ever deliver a declining living standard and identity politics instead of the material well being of Americans it's no wonder that they have rejected those obviously empty promises. Sadly, at some point voter will try the strong man and hope that maybe he delivers when "their people have sold them out consistently for 40 years". Trump won't of course but that's the consequence we all have to suffer for the greed hubris of the Democratic party. WORST of ALL the DNC DID THIS ON PURPOSE, If they won then they're neoliberal agenda would be confirmed and celebrated while the billionaire donor class collected their Pound of flesh. However, if they lost then Trump would also reward the billionaire donors with not only taxes but reduced regulation and best of all a way, to drive fear into the hearts of all workers that if they don't support the neoliberal agenda of the Democrats, they will be thrown to the Neoconservative GOP wolves!!!
The system works.
