2. If you asked me a couple days ago, I would say there is no way of Bernie getting out.

If you asked me a couple days ago, I would say there is no way of Bernie getting out due to 2016. But it's looking more and more like he will.

9. I think Coronavirus changes everything. No rallies. Less travel.

This is a scary time, especially for those of us with underlying health issues.

14. I am healthy, but I agree with you. Plus, it has not been 100%

proven that COVID-19 can't fell a healthy person, in fact a young man in New Jersey who HAD NO health problems is fighting for his life.

Senator Sanders drives his campaign via rallies, I hope that he sees that is not wise in this era.

It's about character. We'll see how he chooses to end this.

15. I hope that he sees how he campaigns is not in his best interests of his supporters.

He uses big rallies to drive his campaign. Such gatherings with people hollering and screaming, and stuff exiting their mouths into the air around them, are not good activities.

16. You see what they're saying on Briahnna's twitter right now.

They want Bernie to go even more negative to hurt Biden. They're actually begging for that.

17. That is sad, but not all Sanders supporters are like that.

I believe that Briahnna is from the really acidic part of his support, the Stein leaning wing. The others are democrats that appear to have sound democratic values.

The Stein wing is just the loudest. They contributed to Bernie's loss.

He's been doing events for the past several days. Not a hint of it.

Depressed? Certainly. But who wouldn't be?
