The Pandemic Makes the Bernie 2020 Campaign More Vital Than Ever

[The Magistrate]

8. This Has Been Another Episode Of Lame Comments From No One In Particular, Sir

There is a bit of wisdom in the mess, though, and it is this:

"But the Bernie 2020 campaign has never been only about winning."

Rather a damning indictment, actually....

"Americans love a winner! And hate a loser."





"From Bernie’s perspective, dropping out of a race once you have no chance of winning is peculiar behavior that can only be explained by the work of a hidden hand. For most politicians, though, it is actually standard operating procedure. Only Sanders seems to think the normal thing to do once voters have made clear they don’t want to nominate you is to continue campaigning anyway."





"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."
