2020 Elections

The Democratic Party is again trying to manipulate its presidential primary elections, President Donald Trump suggested in a two-part tweet on Saturday night.

During the 2016 campaign, he frequently coupled that with a suggestion that Sanders should decline to endorse Clinton and instead run as an independent — clearly a divide-and-conquer strategy on his part.

“Bernie Sanders has been treated terribly by the Democrats—both with delegates & otherwise. He should show them, & run as an Independent,” he tweeted on May 5, 2016. He added two weeks later: “Bernie Sanders is being treated very badly by the Democrats – the system is rigged against him. Many of his disenfranchised fans are for me!“
