Best case: full socialism for your grandkids.
Worst case: a head start on forming a band of marauders for the after-times

in addition, the obvious sabotaging of a popular campaign in such a transparent way might actually create a ton of backlash. it would stigmatize the neoliberal wing of the party who would have quite literally given us trump.

The obvious sabotaging of a popular campaign in a transparent way in fact did cause a lot of backlash and probably why Clinton lost the election.

So from the twisted point of view of a Hillary supporter, Bernie Sanders deciding to run actually did in fact cost her the election, because if they didn't "have to" cheat to beat him, Hilldawg probably would have won! The idea that maybe them cheating is wrong just doesn't really occur to them.
