A couple interesting comments from the readers of
Moon of Alabama
*******************************************************
As much as I'm sure election interference is a factor, I think the biggest story of the primary is the credulity and submissiveness of the average Democratic voter. Republican voters gave the middle finger to their establishment and hoisted Trump into the presidency.
Democrats were stampeded into the arms of a demented old segregationist by a pork-fattened Uncle Tom (Clyburn) and the pansies at MSNBC and the Washington Post. It's a true sight to behold---Super Tuesday may have been a self inflicted deathblow for the old jackasses; I will watch the party die with glee.

1. It's long been a truism for many including myself that barring some wild card, Trump likely will win in 2020. Although a for-real Sanders could have beaten Trump, we knew the DNC would steal the nomination from him. Sanders now will roll over as in 2016. He'll shill for the DNC nominee, as he unilaterally, unconditionally promised from the start.
2. The Corona pandemic may become this wild card, and Trump looks incapable of dealing with it even on a demagogic level. This opens up the possibility that even a DNC candidate fake-talking a good game could beat him. The DNC would rather Trump win than Sanders, but would rather their own corporate candidate win over Trump.
3. In that case, are they really going to throw away such an opportunity by nominating someone who's literally in a state of dementia? That would exceed even my expectations of how stupid the Democrats are.
4. The Dembots and much of the leadership are true believers in Hillary being the chosen one. Only that could have given such fuel to the Russiagate Derangement, something so counter-factual and stupid that no rational or normally irrational state of mind could have clung to it with such demented tenacity for so long and at such opportunity cost.
5. Therefore, barring some new wild card specific to the Democrat circus, I expect the broken convention will anoint Hillary.
