11. If most of the Bernie supporters are anything..

Mar 2020

like most of the ones in my social circle, they will wail and moan and disparage Hillary and blame Obama and Warren, and swear they’ll never vote against the revolution. I have some seriously obsessed Bernie supporters in my group whose words and actions and insults turned me against him.

I do know several who are considering their positions thoughtfully and have said they will probably vote blue no matter who, and are not tearing down any other candidate, but most Bernie supporters I know not only drank the Koolaid in 2016, they are mainlining it to this day. I do worry about them.

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