      So Hilary did have the power to impact elections just by deciding to, but instead of using her powers to get herself elected, she decided to bend her will to getting Trump the nomination, specifically so that after she lost we’d have four years of Trump and then four years of Biden all leading up to her master plan to coming to fruition: An election between Biden and Trump which doesn’t make much of a difference anyway, while she sits on the sidelines forgotten. Now that you point it out, I’m surprised I didn’t see it before. It’s all so clear now.

      No, don’t explain more about what you’re claiming happened. I don’t know what you think went on instead of what I just said, and I don’t care.

        i don’t know if you could have made a more bad-faith interpretation

        You compared influencing primaries to the election between parties. Pirmaries are easier to influence, in fact, they are not free at all. That is the whole point of this scam system, that primaries are rigged and you are only allowed to vote between to insane candidates that have mostly the same policies that make rich richer and poor poorer.
