Have ran far far away from the term "Socialism".

And he should have went hard negative on Biden.

You'll notice the difference when Trump calls him senile everyday and hammers him on weird lies like getting arrested in South Africa.

Including retweeting doctored and edited videos.

That's a textbook definition of negative.

The beginning of the end was the "no one can stop me" tweet at the time of the Nevada caucus. It's been downhill ever since.

I think he probably withdraws in the next day or two and endorses Biden.

I'm not sure how much he'll campaign for him, but if he affirmatively endorses him without all the drama, that's a plus.
