Are Establishment Democrats Trying to Lose?

“My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks.”
- Barack Obama to bank CEOs in 2009 (he sure protected them)
I'm only half kidding with the title here. No, I don't think establishment Democrats are actually trying to lose, but I agree with the sentiment that they'd rather continue to lose to Donald Trump with someone like Hillary Clinton, than win with someone like Bernie Sanders.
