Will Bernie Sanders Drop out Today?

He should. He should have dropped out Wednesday. He should have dropped out on Thursday. Maybe he will drop out and endorse Joe Biden today. He should do that.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

We can't officially start the fall campaign until he suspends so as harmless as it seems he's handicapping us every day he doesn't say it.

I believe that he intends to leverage his few delegates to force "concessions" from the Democrats.

Based on the facts that his FB ads have been suspended and his donation link urges supporters to donate to charity.

What day will he drop out? I don’t know but I’d be surprised if he’s still in the race a week from now.

Why would he quit now? If the DNC wanted to unify the party well before June, they should have all the primaries done well before June. It just so happens that a solid number are just around June, and people shouldn't freak out because a candidate would like to get the delegates they can for other reasons -party platform is another major factor that delegates affect.
