I wonder if the democratic primary 2020 will be as toxic as the one in 2016.

(16,423 posts)When primary season rolled around in 2016, the DU-forum all of a sudden got toxic as shit with their fights between Clinton-fans and Sanders-fans.

(28,817 posts)Otherwise I find no toxicity in Dem candidates.
Bernie was financially supported by Russia.
He wont be our candidate. If he runs as an independent he will continue to be toxic.
PS I voted for Bernie in the primary. So lay off the Bernie pushback please. (Not meaning the poster)

(28,817 posts)Lots to degrade Clinton and push Bernie.
Same shit that they did everywhere to get anyone but Hillary elected. I was infected by it some. I never thought Clinton was crooked. But the push about her speech content and the closeness to corporate America was emphasized did register with me .
When I found out Russianbots were mostly responsible for most of the bs re: Clinton I was immediately changed.
Im not making any allegations about Bernie knowingly having help from Russia.
However, Bernie has yet to show his taxes either.

From the actual indictment itself:
operations primarily intended to communicate derogatory information about Hillary Clinton, to denigrate other candidates such as Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, and to support Bernie Sanders and then-candidate Donald Trump.
