When the DNC rigged its primaries to guarantee that no Biden opponent would have a chance of winning the nomination, I began to appreciate the outrage that Sanders supporters felt in 2016. (For decades, I've despised the Democrat Party; this year--as i did in 2020--I hated it.)

I genuinely do not know why you think the primary was rigged this year. Because there wasn't a debate? It makes it harder, I suppose, but I don't think that's rigging anything. You can still have a debate without the DNC.

Late last year, the DNC changed the primary election rules--to the effect that primary challengers who campaigned in a Democrat primary state would become ineligible to be awarded prez-nominating convention delegates from that state. (I don't know the fine points of the rigging, but that was an important reason that Kennedy cited for quitting the Democrats. (As long as the Clinton-Obama cabal could continue to prop up Biden, it did so--until it decided that Harris would suffice as Biden's replacement.)

Regardless of claims of DNC conspiracies against RFK, what on earth makes you think that left-wing Democratic primary voters would want him over Biden?

With respect, I've spent about ten minutes Googling and I still cannot find any information that is similar to what you wrote.

Google is not entirely reliable.

Nothing is entirely reliable. Point is, I’ve spent time trying to figure out what in the world you are talking about, and came up with nothing. Would love a link.
