In reply to the discussion: Is it okay that Joe Biden paid family members from campaign? [View all]The Magistrate
(95,247 posts)So long as he persists in showboating, and so long as he is kept in countenance by devoted supporters, 'Bernie' does harm to the prospects of turfing out this cheap thug Trump.
Once Sanders accepts reality and leaves go his illusions, no one is likely to say one harsh word towards him. Or pay him much attention at all. One suspects this is why he will not abandon his destructive course....
"From Bernies perspective, dropping out of a race once you have no chance of winning is peculiar behavior that can only be explained by the work of a hidden hand. For most politicians, though, it is actually standard operating procedure. Only Sanders seems to think the normal thing to do once voters have made clear they dont want to nominate you is to continue campaigning anyway."
"When things are not called by their right names, what is said cannot make sense. When what is said does not make sense, what is planned cannot succeed. When plans do not succeed, people become uneasy. When people are uneasy, punishments do not fit crimes. When punishments do not fit crimes, people cannot know where to put hand or foot."
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
