88% of registered Democrats have a favorable opinion of Bernie Sanders
You make up the ~10-12% minority who doesn't
2018 will provide the direction for progressives to take. Establishment Democrats can't stop cheating to retain control of the party, even appointing admitted cheaters like Donna Brazile to the Rules committee. If we lose because you cheated, again, we will start a 3rd party and run Sanders or someone like him as an Independent in 2020. Like I said, I don't expect to win that election, but it would absolutely disrupt any establishment Democratic strategy for someone like Kamala Harris or Corey Booker and Trump or some other, equally as terrible Republican candidate would win. As we've established, most of the Clinton supporters don't mind cheating so long as they win; the ends justify the means. So tread lightly. Maybe after these next few elections you can legitimately blame us for your corporate funded candidate being beat by the joke of a Republican, because if you cheat these next few cycles, we will bury you. That's not a threat, that's a guarantee. If you cheat and lose, it won't be on us for not voting for you, it will be on you for cheating after having been warned exactly what would happen, again.
