I think Bernie cares more about his “movement” than he does about beating Trump.

I don’t think he cares whether or not down ballot races in Montana or Maine, for example, are won by Democrats as much as he cares about his “movement.”

I think the only thing bigger than the price tag for his ideas is his ego.

So, while I share your hope that he gets out thereby helping to instill a period of calm well before the convention, I suspect we will all probably be here next week, in April, in May and finally June, watching Bernie get crushed in state after state, wondering why he won’t just get out. He is what he is and we’ve all seen this movie before.



If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
