39. Where it goes wrong is it's not unlike a rigged team contest by a fraternal organization

Not unlike a marathon bike relay.

The DNC sponsored a competition and offered a significant grand prize to the winner. The contest operators claimed they wouldn't bias the outcome. To compete teams had to make investments of large amounts of things of value such as time and money.

And huuuge amounts of money and time were invested.

The DNC's governors should be deeply embarrassed and committed to reparation for the harm they caused
