Tad Devine, former chief strategist for Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign, argues in his new book that the Democratic Party continues to repeat strategic errors that alienate voters. Devine contends that the party establishment actively worked against Sanders in 2016, favoring Hillary Clinton, and that this pattern of prioritizing internal power over broader voter appeal has led to repeated electoral defeats. He emphasizes the importance of open primaries as a true test of political strength, suggesting that the party's focus on closed primaries and establishment figures overlooks the desire for change among a significant portion of the electorate.
