I care about the movement, and Bernie or Bust people are going to murder the movement. They are going to sit on their asses and sit out in protest and none of the down ballot progressives will ever have a chance. That's the real shame.
It's definitely a catch-22 for the progressives. If they just go along with Hillary, 1) They are irrelevant until 2024. 2) They let the DNC know that they can perpetually win the game of chicken when they go establishment again in 2024.
There's always going to be a supreme court judge and a republican opponent.
I'm not sure how down ballot stuff will work. I assume the DNC has already gotten 'their people' on the ballot in November. Bernie or Bust folks, should definitely go out and vote for at least Stein.
I do think an under-acknowledged part of the Bernie support is people who weren't democrats. I've got a lot of positions that fit all over the map on the political spectrum. Bernie was my first choice. I was never going to vote for Hillary.
