Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced on Wednesday that he was ending his campaign after failing to yield the Super Tuesday votes he had been banking on to jumpstart his self-funded campaign.
The Establishment will probably succeed with itās coordinated effort to stop Bernie, by continuing to prop up Biden. Who will then lose badly to Trump. Itās 2016 all over again.
Well, then I guess it is all done. We move on, find a rocket ship, fly to another planet and begin to build a new world free of these mortal constraints.
I guess thatās what happens when you tell Dem voters if you donāt get aboard my wagon, we are going to call you French nobility and guillotine you.
Some people have been saying heās helping Sanders by splitting the moderate votes, especially during the last few days, but hereās an opposite take I agree with. https://mobile.twitter.com/lynnv378/status/1235194018679619584
Also, some would say itās āriggingā, I call it playing within the system. Iām not happy with the result and even the process, but itās not against the rules.
I think the coordinated effort is to nominate a viable Democrat and beat Trump. And Iām not in the Establishment (Iām just an engaged Democrat, citizen, and voter), but I certainly consider myself part of the effort.
Am I the only one who doesnāt consider Bernie a Democrat? He isnāt a member of the party he only caucuses with them in the senate. Why would I ever want to give my Partyās nomination to a person who has resisted joining the party for 40 years? That is as bad a tRump taking over the Rethugs!
Now would be a good time for a lot of you to stop it with the āBernie Brosā, āSandernistasā, āSanders supporters are cultistsā talk. Consider refraining from gloating and donāt amplify anecdotal examples of Sanderās supports acting like jerks. The moderate lane has had a free pass on disparaging Sanders supporters (Iām not saying there isnāt nastiness on both sides), but it really is in all of our interest to cut it out.
