    If a few candidates drop out on or soon after Super Tuesday, this becomes a much more interesting race. I agree. I don’t see a path forward for Warren given Bernie has consumed her “liberal” lane and she’s gotten tons of fundraising with modest results. Amy’s path will also narrow due to lack of money and Biden/Pete continuing to be in her way for the popular vote.

    Pete and Bloomberg. Two biggest wildcards imo. Mike May drop out after a poor showing on ST, he may stay in out of vanity and hopes that money can win, he may actually do ok on ST. No clue. Pete has a legitimate argument through three states that he belongs in that top tier. Ironically this leaves us with all 4 B-name candidates. Biden, Bernie, Bloomberg, Buttigieg. Probably fate

    The fact that Trump is a Republican and Bernie is a Democrat is immaterial to the point I'm making. The point I'm making is that Trump has been saying for years that the MSM is overwhelming biased in favor of Democrats and that position has been mocked and much grand standing about the sanctity of the press has been made (including by Bernie bros) and now Bernie bros are making the same argument as Trump supporters, that the MSM is overwhelmingly biased against their candidate in favor of other candidates. It's hypocrisy.

    "The press" (writ large) is beyond reproach when criticized by Trump but when they turn their sites on Sanders it's suddenly an issue?

    So is the press this sanctimonious profession/sacred institution that is "neutral" or is it extremely partisan as Trump has been saying for years? It's obvious the MSM is partisan. Fox is Republican and everyone else aligns with the Democratic party with varying degrees of leftward partisanship.

    Trump, the GOP, and Russia want Bernie. I know it’s hard for you fathom, but Bernie is polarizing like Trump.

    Moderate Dems are rightfully worried that the gains made by the moderates Dems in 2018 that took the house are in question. Then you have the senate.

    This is the story of the night.

    I've been looking at the entrance polls where Bernie is absolutely dominating across the spectrum in race, education, ideology, etc. The Sanders coalition is real and it's very broad, not what the media would have you believed.

    What must be hard to fathom, is that those are all weak attempts to bring Bernie down. They are trying to give him the Tulsi Gabbard treatment but Bernie's too well known for that horse ****.

    Because Tulsi is a tool of the GOP.

    Y’all are pretty naive for a bunch of populist conspiracy theorists.

    Bruh, Bernie Sanders has circumvented identity politics and went straight to where most everyone can agree. Healthcare, education, living wage, Climate Change.

    Racists, POC's, Poor people, Young people, Old People, White Women in the burbs, can hate each other, but they agree on at least one of these things.

    Bernie is the one playing 5D chess.
