113. That's funny

People were upset about the treatment Bernie received? Bernie was treated with kid gloves to not upset his supporters.

Now they tried to go after Warren and she didn't just accept it. And all the blame is put on Warren for calling people on their bs.
I actually think Warren needs to sink Bernie. That's just a personal opinion but in a 1 on 1 matchup against Biden, I think Warrren would do considerably better than Sanders.

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