The disgusting reason Bernie Sanders is staying in the race
Bernie Sanders appeared on television last night and announced that he’s remaining in the 2020 Democratic primary race because he still has a path to victory. Meanwhile, back in the real world, the primary race has been over for weeks, Joe Biden is the nominee, and Sanders’ only “path” is to disaster. So what’s he doing?
If you want to figure out why someone is doing something, start by looking back at when that person has done the same thing in the past, and what that person’s motivation was the last time around. In the case of Bernie Sanders, he got blown out in the 2016 Democratic primary race by millions of votes, but he kept running a zombie campaign for months after he’d lost. Then FBI Director James Comey finally admitted that there never was any criminal case against Hillary Clinton, and suddenly Sanders dropped out of the race just six days later.
It wasn’t difficult to figure out that Sanders was remaining in a race he’d already lost because he was hoping that Clinton would end up being indicted. That’s right, Bernie Sanders is the kind of guy who was rooting for the 2016 Democratic nominee to be arrested on imaginary crimes, so he could take her place.
Four years later, Bernie Sanders has gotten blown out in the 2020 Democratic primary race by millions of votes, yet he’s continuing to run a zombie campaign long after he’s lost. Based on his past behavior, it’s clear that he’s rooting for something awful to happen to Joe Biden. Given what’s currently going on, it’s fair to conclude that Sanders is hoping Biden catches coronavirus and drops out.
That’s right, Bernie Sanders is the kind of low down dirty thug who is rooting for the 2020 Democratic nominee to catch a deadly virus that would probably kill him. Just like Bernie Sanders is the kind of low down dirty thug who was rooting for the 2016 Democratic nominee to be falsely imprisoned. On top of that, Sanders is still seeking donations for a campaign that literally does not exist, which is fraud. Sanders is both a thug and a thief, who simply doesn’t care how much damage he does to the left, and doesn’t care if his selfish antics hand Donald Trump another four years. Sanders has now failed his progressive supporters on every level.
