About this listen
One question haunted the American left after the 2016 election: how could a grassroots movement that drew massive crowds and shattered fundraising records fail? The answer exposes fundamental flaws in American democracy itself.
In How the Democrats Screwed Bernie, Sanders’s chief strategist in the 2016 Democratic primary unravels how the “Clinton Machine”—a network of operatives, Super PACs, and media allies—in consort with the Democratic National Committee deployed dark money and dirty tricks to stop a wildly popular outsider candidate. A candidate who may well have been the peoples’ choice and beaten Donald Trump.
You’ll discover how deeply the entrenched Democratic establishment orchestrated opposition research campaigns, the true story behind the voter file crisis that nearly derailed the campaign, and why primary rules are deliberately structured to favor insiders over often more compelling outsiders.
This isn’t just another campaign memoir. Nor is it just a reflection on the doomed Sanders’s candidacy ten years hence. It is a cautionary tale about a crisis in American democracy that is becoming more urgent by the day. As voters grapple with growing distrust of political institutions, How the Democrats Screwed Bernie reveals how our democratic processes really work and how they can be manipulated by those in both parties with enough money and power to game the system.
This is the story the Democratic establishment doesn't want you to read.
