When waging a 'revolution' against the Democratic establishment, what stays in, what should go?

23. don't try and play me for a fool

...the entire movement behind Bernie Sanders has nothing but contempt for the Democratic establishment. Here at DU the animus is so rabid that even the progressive caucus was treated like pariahs for endorsing someone other than Sanders.

If Bernie Sanders and his crew can make leaps of judgment to envelop and declare anything associated with Hillary 'establishment,' and a target for his revolution, we can certainly justify making our defense just as broad-based.

What Sanders and his supporters want is to roll over anyone in our party not aboard his political revolution, and the rhetoric is becoming reactionary and intolerant of dissent, like the way most partisan revolutions devolve. No one in our party unassociated with all of that has to put up with any of it.

You want to talk dishonest? Take a long look at that denial of yours. Sanders' epic pout at not being chosen by PP and HRC has no intrinsic value to anyone, save his own campaign. It's not only weak, it's a cynical and self-serving exercise which has zero to do with any of the needs and concerns of Americans.
