Wind at his back. Sanders is in a worse position than he was at this point in 2016. And its all happening organically. Yet some want to give Sanders supporters excuses to keep fighting by short circuting this. I actually don't think it's trolls. Some people are just so blinded by hatred for him because they blame him for 2016 (inaccurately in my opinion) that they aren't thinking rationally or strategically. It's why i was hoping he wouldn't run again... just too divisive. But he did and here we are. And he's losing worse and yet some people just aren't satisfied with that. Go figure.

Nothing will endear these people to vote for Biden, if Trump doesn't already do it. Nothing.

They will NEVER support Biden. They elected Trump the first time and will do so again.
