Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Email from the Sanders campaign seconds after the debate ended:
Two questions - did Faiz watch the same debate that we watched, or alternately is this a subtle concession?
I hope every single American sitting in their homes tonight watched that debate. Every. Single. Last. Person.
Because this debate made clear a fundamental truth many of us have always known.
And that is on issue after issue from health care and its impact on this coronavirus crisis, to Social Security, free college, abortion access, LGBTQ rights, climate change and more Bernie Sanders is and has always been on the right side of history. Joe Biden has not.
The American people will never have to worry if a President Bernie Sanders will stand with them because he always has.
But if we want to elect Bernie Sanders a president who will change the power structure in America, taking it from the few who have too much and deliver it to those who need it its going to take all of us chipping in. Especially tonight. So what do you say?
Can you make a $2.70 contribution to our campaign TONIGHT as a way of saying we need Bernie Sanders and his agenda in the White House?
$2.70 might not seem like election-winning money, but right now thousands and thousands of people are adding their $2.70 just hoping youll do the same next.
Thanks for doing it.

They need to lay off the campaign donations, people are stretched, worried about the next few months, $2.70 right now is a lot to ask for.
