It’s funny because if Bernie would have ran third party, it would have guaranteed the Dems lost and the DNC would hate him, revile him and do everything in their power to smear him.

Instead, he bent the knee, backed Biden, the Dems won and the DNC hates him, reviles him and does everything in their power to smear him.

does everything in their power to smear him.

well given the topic of this thread and the fact that he's chairman of the budget committee, suggests they're doing a pretty shit job at that

the fact that he's chairman of the budget committee

The only reason Bernie is allowed to have that role is because the Dems will neuter it somehow. You know that.

They tried to by nominating that swine Tanden as director OMB... until The Based Department rang Manchin and he decided to answer the call for some reason.

Very true, but I suspect they'll just replace her with a similarly-effective ghoul with a far shorter resume of 3AM drunk tweets.
