In a Politicususa article, the author cautions Sanders' supporters that Obama has said and history shows that incrementalism is the only way in which major changes take place.
I’ve seen 30 years of Democratic establishment contempt for progressives, I’ve seen their seven stages of reactionary attacks too many times, I’ve seen the condescension and the slander and the scorched earth. I’ve heard their endless excuses for enabling evil, their immoral pandering to the Powers-That-Be, their strident demands for party loyalty while progressive values burn in the bonfires of the Beltway and the Four Horsemen of Triangulation saddle up for yet another nationwide ride.

The New Hampshire Union Leader attacked Attorney General Loretta Lynch and the entire Obama Administration in an editorial for "creeping into bathrooms."
The Justice Department has filed a ridiculous lawsuit against North Carolina for its law overturning a Charlotte ordinance that told private businesses how to manage their bathrooms.
The eradication of any legal distinction between the sexes, even in terms of basic biological functions, is a creepy obsession on the left.
