59. if Bernie & his aides think they can persuade voters he can oust Trump, they are delusional

Sep 2019

the GOP's scare tactic to their base is to cry "SOCIALISM". They are not going to change any minds.
Bernie's overused message is like leftover food in the fridge from your last party - stale and needs to be thrown out.

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