6. Like Hillary in her own way, Biden got all historical on Bernie.

And Bernie was like 'History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce.'

like he did about the McCain-Palin campaign called Game Change which was a real interesting read.

Of course, he'll have to find a new partner to write it with since Mark Halperin has since been banned to Me Too's Island of Misfit Boys...and rightfully so. Don't miss that creepy dude one iota.

13. He's won a few obscure primaries/caucuses, too, mostly low delegate count. His total is 7.5:
Sat Mar 21, 2020, 10:19 AM

NH tied with Buttigieg (9 delegates)
ND (8 delegates)
Northern Marianas (a whopping 4 delegates)
NV
CA
CO
VT (11 delegates)
UT (13 delegates)

Even though he won California, he only got 47 more delegates than Biden.

Biden has gotten more than 50% of the delegates in 15 states, Sanders only 5, which includes Vermont and Northern Marianas (beat Biden 4-2!)

If it was a people-powered moment, he shouldn't have blown through nearly $20 million in a month.

Is there any accountability of the money he says he is raising to help COVID 19 charities? It seemed odd to me. Bernie has always said he didn't like charities.
