(10,240 posts)1. I don't see what is keeping him from endorsing him now.
I usually keep my TV on when sleeping and while I hope this might have just been a nightmare, I could have sworn that CNN had Krystal Ball on as commentator early this morning.
If her conspiracy-spouting, Sanders-loving biased ass can be allowed to appear on CNN as a commentator, then surely can anyone else that has decided to openly promote a candidate like she has.

It is unlikely that Krystal Ball got paid like Yang will be getting paid.
