I am not inclined to reward Clinton or the Democratic party for this scandalous treatment of Bernie particularly and progressives generally. But that's easy for me to say because I live in a state that almost certainly will go Republican in the general election. However, if the polls in Louisiana appear to be close come November, you can bet your ass I'll vote for Clinton. Anything to keep Trump out of office.

Indeed. While I'm personally going to do what I must to ensure Trump doesn't win my state if it looks to be even remotely close come November, I'm going to remember this election - the DNC needs to fix their shit, sooner rather than later. This kind of corrupt, undemocratic nonsense doesn't belong in any US political party, much less one with "Democratic" in the title. Those responsible should be ashamed of themselves.
Unfortunately, this rubbish has been going on forever, the only difference now is that there are digital footprints. The wealthy elite in both major parties are the ones making the decisions that ensure they stay on top and that they screw over us peasants.
