First, do not mistake what I am about to say as approval or condoning what the DNC did. Far from it. But, having said that...
...I cannot whip up any sympathy for Bernie Sanders. Here's a guy who has made a big deal and a career out of being a Big-"I" Independent. He has specifically disavowed the Dem Party and make it a point that he is not one of them. He did little-to-no campaigning for lower-level races during his primary run, because it was all about him. He only joined them when it was convenient for him and the party affiliation would serve *his* purposes of running for President.
So, yeah, Bernie, what they did wasn't cool, but really you shouldn't have expected better to begin with.
