Senator Sanders might well not have known some things about Joe Rogan. [View all]

He knows them now, though, so when does he disavow the endorsement?

I would not be surprised that Bernie doesn't know a lot about a lot of people. He's eager for endorsements, so he might not be checking on the people who offer their endorsement. I can understand that, but once people let him know that there's an issue with crowing about an endorsement, he needs to explain that he didn't know that about that person.

Will he? That's an important question for many people, I'd think.

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