15% of Sanders supporters in ABC/WaPo poll say they will be voting for tRump [View all]

Eighty percent of Sanders backers say they’ll vote for Biden against Trump; as noted, 15% say they’d back Trump. (This is familiar: Twenty percent of Sanders supporters said they’d vote for Trump in spring 2016.) - ABC News

To me, that throws up warning flags about who these 15% are. They were always tRump supporters, trying to stop a democratic win. I seriously doubt they would have even voted for Bernie had he won the nomination.

We're going to continue to hear new false allegations being made against Joe Biden and whomever his running mate will be all the way up to the election, then just as in 2016, suddenly never after. Hmmm

Be smart people. Be skeptical of negative news against Biden from "supposed" liberals or progressives or conservative converts.

Lock in your support for Biden and speak out. Let's win this for Biden and restore America.

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