I think I have had enough of bernie

[brokephibroke]

Hasn’t this country been through enough yet?

[SiliconValley_Dem]

1. Send Bernie packing Tuesday night

[HarlanPepper]

25. After Bernie is beaten badly Tuesday night

Biden should ignore him the rest of the way and start the fall campaign.

[SiliconValley_Dem]

30. Agree. No more debates--just shun him

[Kahuna7]

53. The earlier to shun him the better. Let him and his supporters...

come to grips with the fact that their revolution has been cancelled.

[lillypaddle]

2. amen. nt

[William769]

3. I had enough of him back in 2016.

[jrthin]

7. Amen!

[Cha]

10. 2012 for me.

[mindem]

28. Same here.

The whole Bernie shtick is really wearing thin.

[RandySF]

4. He will keep it up through July.

[Maru Kitteh]

5. He just can't fucking help himself, can he.

The man seems to make clear to me, every time I see him, that DEMOCRATS are the #1 enemy on the planet.

[Claustrum]

6. Unfortunately, his bench mark will be someone hitting the magic 1991 number or continue n/t

[DaDeacon]

8. 70% of voters under 40 don't agree ...

[Demsrule86]

11. Bernie is horrible tonight...he will not move the needle with this performance.

[DaDeacon]

13. yep... that address what I said...

[zackymilly]

14. Too bad they couldn't agree on Bernie in the voting booth. They didn't show up. n/t

[DaDeacon]

16. that was from those who have voted...

sorry.. facts is facts... without the young (under 40), we don't win.

[Aquaria]

39. Keep deluding yourself that way

We'll get the suburban moms, who actually, you know, do vote. Last time they went for Orange Foolious. This time, they won't vote for him.

When your crybaby participation trophy winners show up, then we'll listen to them. Until then, they're fakers and posers who have warped priorities. We're not going to coddle them. Funny, when I was the age of these pampered shits, I was voting AND working on campaigns, not expected to be handed an election win with zero fucking effort.

When you're a true liberal, you don't sit on your whiny ass because you don't get your way. You pull up your big girl/boy pants, and you get your ass to the voting booth to vote for who will do the most for all citizens, especially the most vulnerable. When you're an ADULT, you'll crawl over broken glass for the privilege.

[LongtimeAZDem]

46. +∞

[treestar]

54. I was thinking the same about having to be coddled

I voted in every election from the time I was of age. There was never any talk about the youth vote. I didn't have to be inspired to vote any more than I had to be inspired to go to school/work. The Founders created a system where "We the People" govern through our elected representatives. Why sneer at that as if it were nothing?

[LongtimeAZDem]

45. We don't need Bernie's unreliable supporters; real Democrats will be joined by moderate independents

and republicans who dislike Trump.

So, the threats to stay home are irrelevant, because everyone knows better this time around.

[texasfiddler]

18. if They would vote, I'd jump on board.

We need to beat trump. Go Joe Go.

[Turin_C3PO]

23. They gotta come out to vote.

Until then, older voters will control the outcome. I say this as a millennial who’s voted since I was 18 in 2002.

[HarlanPepper]

26. SCOREBOARD

[SiliconValley_Dem]

31. Not voters.

[whopis01]

52. The problem is that isn't enough to win

the Democratic primary let alone the general election.

[Demsrule86]

9. He is horrible ...and this won't help his campaign.

[walkingman]

12. Bernie should be congratulated for pushing the Democratic Party to more progressive ideas. He will

not be our nominee but he has made our party better for his efforts.

[brokephibroke]

15. Fine but he has a responsibility to the party to help win

Oh wait, he is not a dem....

[walkingman]

24. Yes he does and I expect him to do so. I just hope that his supporters also will. We have become

very tribal in all aspects of our lives these days. My way or the highway. BTW - the same thing should be said for Biden supporters with respect to Bernie.

[LuvLoogie]

32. Bernie leaves the Democratic Party of his own accord.

I suspect this summer will be for the last time.

[walkingman]

33. I suspect that in order to beat Trump we will need Bernie voters? We should lose sight of the real

enemy......Trump.

[LuvLoogie]

35. Until Bernie realizes that and gives more than

Iip service to party unity, there is nothing Joe Biden or his supporters can do to counter that.

Bernie supporters are welcome. Always have been. We didn't tape their mouths shut.

[Aquaria]

41. Or tie them down to a chair to keep them from voting

Or go into the booth to hold their hand and coddle them until they pulled the lever for a D, like they apparently expect of us.

They choose not to vote.

They don't seem to get that politics doesn't hand out participation trophies. You win or you go home. That's how it works.

[brokephibroke]

34. I respect bernie

He is principled and has pushed us as a party. But the time for winning is now.

[walkingman]

42. Thank you - that's exactly how I feel. I wish it could be a little more friendly but that doesn't

seem possible these days. It's a dog eat dog world.

[Aquaria]

40. Oh for crying out loud

He's done no such thing. 95% of what he blathers has been in the platform this whole time.

[walkingman]

43. I disagree - the Obama/Biden admin. was much more to the right.

[LongtimeAZDem]

44. He has done the opposite; because his followers cannot be counted on to vote, he has pushed

the party to the center to get reliable support.

[walkingman]

47. Agree - regardless of the topic those with the most voters will win. I just hope it is not

Trump. I can hardly stand to hear him or his ass kisser, Pence. He looks like a big fat toad and Pence looks like a zombie. What the hell happened to this country. I can find a better candidate at my local shit-kicker beer joint.....and that is saying a lot.

[LongtimeAZDem]

49. I think we'll have enough moderate independents and republicans join us to win easily. Of course,

if Bernie's followers were on board, it would be a blowout, but we can't count on them.

[DemKittyNC]

17. Been done with him

since 2016!

He is NOT a Democrat! I got a post removed the other day on here for calling Bernie out. Bernie is just in this to hurt this election whether to hurt the Democratic Party and to help tRump or not our country doesn’t need this right now. We have way bigger problems then dragging this Primary out. Especially when Bernie is so far behind!!

This is a time of unity to unite together to defeat the tRump administration. Bernie, concede and get your supports behind Joe Biden NOW!

[brokephibroke]

19. Amen

[walkingman]

48. oh, come on....you know Bernie is cool!!! How would you like to have a family member like him?

I'd love it.

[njhoneybadger]

20. This shit is really getting old

[Frances]

21. Agree

I had to stop watching
Bernie keeps nitpicking Joe instead of attacking Trump the way Joe does
If Bernie had supported Hilary convincingly in 2016, Trump would not be President
Now he’s doing the same thing to Joe
Bernie is a spoiler.
I can see why some people call themselves Bernie/Trump supporters
Bernie and Trump have opposing positions but similar personalities

[IluvPitties]

22. Yes- he needs to move on.

[DonaldsRump]

27. Here it comes...I am feeling the Burn

...THE BIDEN BURN!

Run, Joe, Run! You've got the Mo-Joe and the Joe-Mentum.

Go, Bro, go!

[beachbumbob]

29. you and me and most of america

just retire bernie, you are old news

[NCProgressive]

36. me too

[showblue22]

37. Tonight will likely be Bernie's last debate in his life. nt

[StarfishSaver]

38. He's just really unpleasant

[DUgosh]

51. Gosh he's awful!

Glad he’s not in the Democratic Party- the independents, Republican, and Russians are welcome to him.
