OP
Even if he's not dropping, it's a huge deal to cancel all Facebook ads.

I really do not like Bernie if this is true and he is staying in and putting peoples lives at risk all for his EGO! 😡
I really thought he was finally going to do the right thing. Hope he still will but this is ridiculous if he is staying in!

It's a clear sign that the campaign is running out of money and they're desperately trying to stay alive.

(5,373 posts)6. The Laura Litvan Tweet was wrong, BUT
Suspending the Facebook ads is a pretty clear sign that he's ending the campaign. Why do it otherwise?
I did say in another thread that it might be a trial balloon to see how people reacted, and judging by the near-universal acclaim everywhere online, I'd say the reaction is pretty clear.
I expect him to drop out soon.

Come on Bernie---do the right thing! We were already celebrating about the only thing there would be to celebrate now.
