Garrity: Governor Dean, thank you for being with us today. Obviously the coronavirus has gotten most of the headlines of late, but we are in a really critical juncture of the presidential campaign and we have been closely watching Bernie Sanders. Is he at the end of the road?
Dean: I mean that's up to him. He's going to decide when he's at end of the road. I have to say that I think he's done a great job this week. Um, he doesn't want to give up. I totally get that.

He's made it clear that he is going to support Joe Biden and what he wants. An exchange is something that I hope he gets. Cause I, I'm, you know, job wise, a little more conservative than I am and I want the, I want, if he's going to leave, which I mean, if this continues, he's obviously is, I want his platform, a lot of pieces of his platform to be adopted.

(5,822 posts)There is not one positive note about Sanders and certainly nothing positive or supportive of Joe in his new ad.
So over Sanders and his divinity tour.
