The real answer is that he endorsed because he doesn't want to be Unemployed Man anymore.
There’s a nasty mentality that you have carte Blanche to be a prick as long as it’s for a good cause. The moment someone objects, you can just go “SO YOU DON’T WANT MEDICARE FOR ALL, IS THAT IT?” as if that’s relevant to you acting like garbage.
No that’s politics. She might hate him, but beyond delegates it would help him more to have her endorsement than she’s would help Bernie.
I’m sorry for being cynical but I think these endorsements have been in the works for a while. Somebody said Bernie should have been on the phone with Warren, Ayanna, and AOC for today.
More than likely.
Oh, I know it's politics at the end of the day. I just find it kinda amusing.
the Warren reddit I shit you not said “let’s give them time to breathe and mourn”.
Bernie doesn’t make friends easy..... like The real move would have been getting Kamala to back him before California. For all their issues with the AA vote Bernie should have gone after Booker too who is actually pretty damn progressive.
Honestly, I got to stop projecting my cold hearted analyst to these candidates.
Them and Rashida would definitely be assets for campaigning in the rust belt, the rest of New York+PA and New England. I literally can't fathom how or why Warren would stay in this race up until March 10th.
Does it break it down among party lines? Wouldn't that 43% be including all Democratic, Republican etc ballots together? They may not all be favorable to Biden at the start, since Republicans tend to skew towards older populations than Dems.
I find it very unlikely, but I think after spacing out for like ten minutes at the sheer good fortune of it all I'd probably explode in laughter at all the endorsements. This isn't happening, though. I expect Joe to come out especially strong in Virginia tomorrow. North Carolina had quite a few early votes, so I can't say for sure what will happen there. It's likely in his favor too.
My guess is Biden wins VA by a lot and NC by a decent but not amazing number.
Little Jimmy isn't so much the problem, it's everyone's Grampa Joe or Uncle Bernie that's at real risk here.
That video is overwhelming. It's like watching a zombie apocalypse in real time. It won't be flashy and filled with machine guns, it will be slow, and filled with incompetence.
Do you have a link to that stream?
Yeah that's one of my issues with that whole movement, for some it really is an us vs. them, populist, cult of personality. You're likely to find that among the fringe, but it's super unflattering and potentially damaging.
that's an interesting tweet considering the bernie campaign has actually fired multiple people because they were acting like assholes online.
We can be assholes online because we want to do good things ya see! (The Chapo Way!)
...
You realize that Bernie basically said people that are shitty online are not real Bernie supporters, right?
I can go and find tweets of other candidates supporters saying mean and nasty things on social media but no one talks about them only these mythical "bernie bros" because they want to paint Sanders supporters as only being white males to erase the broad collation he has formed which includes black people, other minorties and marginalized groups.
That's... not what that clip says.
I wasn't talking about that clip. I was talking about his response to a question about toxic people online.
Oh they’re not mythical. They harassed, taunted, and stalked my future rep just down the street from my house. See above.
i mean, ok, it's just super weird that that tweet is all "Bernie says suck it tone policing hacks!!!" when bernie lichterally fired ben mora just the other day because he was a huge shithead about other candidates, on twitter dot com
Normally I don't respond to your drive bys but...

Ah... Then, I apologise. That wasn't super-clear from the fact that you replied to a post containing the clip. :/
Didn't even bother volunteering again. The level of effort wasn't even a fucking shadow of what the previous campaign was. It's fucking depressing.
And he's sucked at all of them. What's the argument here?
The argument is that a ham sandwich with the amount of debate prep Joe's had over this primary can beat Trump in a debate.
Neither Biden nor Bernie are good debaters, so I don’t think it matters much and agree it shouldn’t be a source of differentiation unless we are highlighting skilled debaters and Biden.
I don't think current Biden is a good debater at all, but, like, if not winning a debate makes a huge difference then Biden shouldn't even have a chance after all these debates that he basically slept through against people that would easily trounce Trump in a debate. And yet, he's still here. With a reasonable chance of winning.
