Bernie Sanders has news conference at 1pm ET today
No subject given

[bearsfootball516]

1. Let me guess.

"We're gonna keep fighting, and we're gonna win Illinois and Ohio next Tuesday!"

Flash forward to next Tuesday, with Biden winning Illinois and Ohio by 20 points.

[angrychair]

5. Hopefully not

There is no way anyone in his campaign thinks that is realistic.

[HarlanPepper]

6. You got it

He’s going to do it again. Sigh.

[Miles Archer]

20. I voted in the poll elsewhere on GDP...

...I chose "He's going to take it to the convention."

If today's conference proves me wrong, I'll be the first one to come back here and cop to it.

That said, I think he's going to take it to the convention.

[dubyadiprecession]

32. 😳

[Demsrule86]

2. Is he going to do the right thing and drop out now?

[Goodheart]

3. Drop out, Bernie!

And say very loudly that you encourage your supporters to enthusiastically support and vote for Joe Biden.

[ancianita]

4. It's the only probable reason he has to call one.

[honest.abe]

7. Oh my, this could be it!

[Docreed2003]

8. "While Tuesday's results are disappointing

There are many other voters who haven't made their voices heard. We will be limiting campaign activities because of the coronavirus outbreak, but we will continue to bring our message to the people. We will continue to take on the establishment democrats and establishment republicans and the establishment media. We will fight to the convention"

I hope that's not what he says, but i have little faith.

[frazzled]

9. Can I put $25 on that?

[Docreed2003]

24. Lol you got it!

[Docreed2003]

25. Wow, just saw the news of his "speech"

Can't believe how close my snark was to reality

[katmondoo]

10. I do not think he will drop out. I think he will reinforce his commitment to fight on.

It would be better if he did but that has to be up to him. He should not be forced as that would reflect badly on the Democrats.

[pandr32]

11. It is different this time

BS is capable of reading the numbers and understanding he is doing more poorly than he did during the last primary in many places. His revolution never really took off as he hoped.

Add to that the fact that he is four years older and suffered a heart attack since the last primary fight. COVID-19 means an additional and likely insurmountable hurdle for him. He must realize that rallies not only increase his own risk but put his supporters at risk as well. He needs rallies to increase visibility, funding, and fight.

I hope he will drop out.

[angrychair]

16. +1

It's a very different landscape from 2016.

[bluestarone]

12. I leave the choice up to Bernie!

The numbers DO NOT look good BUT it is HIS choice, and i would NOT take that away from anybody!! BLUE no matter who!! tRUMP has to be defeated into the GROUND!!!

[angrychair]

14. +1

I agree

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

34. ABSO-FUCKIN-LUTELY!!! Joe has a 150 delegate lead... no big deal.

Yes, the odds are in Joe's favor, I admit, but there's still a LONG way to go!! The polls were WAY off in favoring Hillary defeating tRumpty Dumbty... so they could be wrong this time too!!

May the best candidate win fair and square!!


Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

[2naSalit]

13. Primary in my state is in JUNE!

And at this point, I am okay with only Joe on the ticket for president.

[Demsrule86]

17. But you mustn't forget Tulsi...

[2naSalit]

19. Who?

[Demsrule86]

22. Great response...

[MontanaMama]

26. Wish MT's vote was earlier

in the primary season. It’s kinda anticlimactic having to wait till June.

[2naSalit]

29. Indeed. We missed the opportunity to vote for our first choice!

We have to settle for whatever is leftover. Not that it's not the worst thing every time but it's probably why many don't vote.

[MontanaMama]

31. Good point.

Wonder if we could get a movement going for an earlier vote? I know a lot of candidates tend to overlook us as it is with 3 electoral votes.

[2naSalit]

35. I wonder why that is

only having three electoral votes. We should have more based on natural resources!

[MontanaMama]

37. If only our resources could vote!

We wouldn’t have the ass hats in office that we have now.

[2naSalit]

38. That's for sure.

[TomCADem]

15. Hope He Proves Me Wrong...

...but I expect a narcissistic march to the primaries where he does his best to hobble Democratic chances to win the White House and Congress with Bernie's staff adopting and spreading Trump attacks on Democrats.

[berksdem]

18. I hope he does

get out but I am not expecting it.

[zackymilly]

21. He's going to announce Jill Stein as his running mate.

[MontanaMama]

28. Maybe he will announce

Tulski as his running mate. 😳

[Totally Tunsie]

23. CNN is saying Bernie will announce that

he's staying in the race.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

36. GOOD!! Joe and Bernie should at least have their one-on-one debate!!

May the best candidate win fair and square!! No one should be pushed out of the primary prematurely!!


Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join the revolution!!

[avebury]

27. He is staying in the race

https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/11/politics/bernie-sanders-campaign/index.html


Burlington, Vermont (CNN) — A defiant Sen. Bernie Sanders vowed to stay in the presidential race on Wednesday after a series of major defeats, pointing to his appeal with younger voters and previewing the lines of argument he'll use against rival Joe Biden at this weekend's upcoming CNN-Univision debate.

"Last night obviously was not a good night for our campaign from a delegate point of view," Sanders said, noting his losses in the Michigan, Missouri, Mississippi and Idaho primaries. But he then pointed to his victory in North Dakota and reminded viewers of his lead in Washington state.

After acknowledging the unfavorable delegate math, Sanders dug deeper into the numbers and warned that Biden's failure so far to win over young voters could be damaging in November and beyond.
