Hes been doing well in most all the polling lately and appeared to be headed towards having a good shot at winning the nomination. He must have known it would unleash a shit storm. Why now when it seems things are going so well for him?

I’m thinking he must see some problems ahead and that he may have peaked and can’t get over that 30% barrier and needs to shake things up again. Unwittingly he may have woken the bear.

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