In reply to the discussion: Why Bernie Sanders' radicalism can take out Trump [View all]still_one
(92,136 posts)10. Don't underestimate trump. He isn't that weak. And for those who believe Sanders could take trump
out in the general election, I sure wouldn't count on that, especially based on the mediocre record his endorsements had during the midterms.
The red and purple state states are not chomping at the bit for Sanders, and my state of California is going to favor Harris, and California has moved its primary up to Super Tuesday
I donated to Harris today, but still am undecided who I would like to see as our candidate.
Personally I think Biden has the best chance to take trump in the General Elections, though he hasn't announced yet

Almost any of our candidates can take out Trump. He's a historically weak president.

I am sure when Susan Sarandon and Cornel West endorse him, that will motivate those of us who voted

I will not support Sen. Sanders. He is not a Democrat and has not released his taxes.
