I think what we saw yesterday were Dems saying they want this primary season over, and they want Joe to be the nominee.

Bernie's moved the conversation further left than anyone could have, and for that, I'm grateful. But, it's time to coalesce behind Joe.

Shit's been getting real since the beginning of the year. We (Sanders and Biden supporters) need to focus on ridding the country of Trumpism and we can't do that as long as we're posting snake emojis on Twitter.

Biden has 846, he needs 1991.

Bernie should stay in till the end, and the end is 1991.

No "bros" were telling biden to drop out after the first batch of primaries.

He is only winning mostly red states, which scares me.

Super Tuesday for Joe was mostly red states. I do not think states that vote R should be deciding our candidates.

Biden would be expending more resources on the primary rather than getting everyone focused for the general and continuing to take hits from Sanders when the primary is effectively over.

Show the class what the path to winning the nomination is for Bernie.

I can save you a bunch of time: there isn't one beyond an extraordinary long shot.

Therefore, we should now be focusing our energy and resources on getting the criminal out of the White House.

How do you feel about his top campaign advisors continued efforts to kneecap and hobble Biden by spreading and retweeting the lies that he has dementia (or Alzheimer's disease)? Is that worth your donation?

What good purpose does it serve for his top campaign staff to spread and repeat rightwing talking points... and doing Trump's work FOR the Republicans and Russia? Why would they want to do anything to convince the American people to NOT vote for Biden?

How exactly does that benefit the "most progressive issues" that you believe to be important?

Even though almost all the candidates still standing are older people they'll probably all last at least another 4-5 years. They all have terrific top tier medical care, Trump alone has 13 specialists for his yearly checkup. I'm positive Joe Bidens campaign will put those ugly twitter attacks to rest soon before republican party spams them if Biden wins the primary.



Biden doesn't have dementia, Sanders isn't going to drop dead from a heart attack..ignore the tweets they're IMO a total distraction from the real issues at hand that effect most Americans.


to answer your please respond while I will ignore the 'tweets divisive distraction'-

I think the income inequity issue is the most major problem in America followed by Americas 'for profit' health care industry. We need progressive change, much faster progressive change. To go back to normal (while a relief from republicans damn president) isn't enough change for many Americans who are crushed in debt, living for to many years! paycheck to paycheck.

Doesn't matter if Sanders himself personally said it... he's not stopping his staff from doing so. And by remaining that is already been decided, and by not speaking out against his "rogue" staff, Bernie is actually showing his "silent approval" of these types of scorched-earth tactics.

We need progressive change, much faster progressive change.
Okay, fine. Do you think that another four years of Trump is going to bring you closer to those goals? If not, please explain what good purpose it serves to allow his surrogates continued opportunities to spread RW talking points.

Keep in mind that I'm not talking about random-anonymous "bro's" or other bots and trolls on twitter and facebook... I'm talking about HIS FUCKING STAFF. Why is that okay with you?

Its not about Sanders either.

It’s about the bigger picture.

Sanders is willing to burn it all to the ground. Fuck that.

45. The longer he stays in, the more damage the SCORCHED-EARTH philosophy of his advisors will cause.

Biden will allow him to rant on most of his policies for as long as he wants then he should
while on stage drop out and fully support biden, and insist that his supporters get behind biden
then leave and let biden have the stage.

64. March 18. If the debate on the 15th and primaries on the 17th favor Biden then Sanders

should concede. I would like to see how Biden handles the one-on-one debate (since there will be several of those with Trump) then if the voters on the 17th support him that is it.
