What the hell happened to Bernie Sanders? The elderly socialist was riding high as the democratic party front runner and then all of a sudden he’s tanking as bad as Elizabeth Warren. As the votes come in from Mini Tuesday, in which 6 states held primaries, Sanders isn’t doing too well. Apparently democratic voters prefer crazy to communism.
Bernie Sanders actually won the Michigan primary 4 years ago against Hillary Clinton but that ain’t happening this year. With most of the votes in, Joe Biden will win Michigan with 52% to Sanders’ 38%. The good news is Elizabeth Warren picked up 1% of the vote proving early voting is complete bullshit.
Sanders woes continued in Mississippi where Biden whooped his ass 81% to 15%. Obviously black voters don’t care much for ancient honky socialists.
Giving him the “M” state trifecta, Biden also won Missouri with 60%. Sanders only got 35%.
In Idaho it’s still too close to call but Biden leads Sanders 48% to 42%.
In Washington, which Bernie won in 2016 by a landslide, things are dead even with both candidates pulling 33%. Interestingly enough, Elizabeth Warren has 12% with 60% of the precincts reporting so she might actually get a delegate out of this race, once again proving that early voting is bullshit.
The lone piece of good news for Comrade Bernie is that he’s sort of kicking ass in North Dakota, leading Biden 45% to 34%. Only 15% of the vote has been counted so there’s still plenty of time for Bernie to lose this state too.
You know things are bad when Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie’s biggest supporter, can’t even find a stupidly positive thing to say about Tuesday’s primary contests.
“There’s no sugar coating this. It’s a tough time for the movement,” said Ocasio-Cortez.
AOC can’t even blame this on racist Republicans who are scared of a strong woman of color since Bernie is a weak white woman.
According to NPR, House Majority Whip Rep. Jim Clyburn thinks the democratic primaries are a little league game and wants the DNC to invoke the “slaughter rule.”
“I think when the night is over, Joe Biden will be the prohibitive favorite to win the Democratic nomination, and quite frankly, if the night ends the way it has begun, I think it is time for us to shut this primary down, it is time for us to cancel the rest of these debates — because you don’t do anything but get yourself in trouble if you continue in this contest when it’s obvious that the numbers will not shake out for you,” said Clyburn.
Clyburn added the funniest thing of the race so far by essentially saying Joe Biden is a lunatic:
Clyburn later added that as the process continues to drag on that Biden will get “himself into trouble” and will say something that he “cannot overcome.”
He’s not wrong, but that’s hardly a ringing endorsement for Joe Biden. The liberal logic at play here is that Biden is such a liability that the democrats should just give him the nomination because otherwise he’ll say something stupid and end up losing the nomination.
Bernie is so distraught over whacko leftists rejecting his communist revolution that he wouldn’t even address his dwindling supporters. Fox News reports:
Sanders’ campaign said he would not speak publicly at all Tuesday night — the first time the candidate has declined to address supporters in the aftermath of a primary vote this campaign season.
Now that the democratic primary has narrowed to a two-man race, voters are facing the choice between having all their teeth pulled without anesthesia or a rusty drain snake colonoscopy. So far it appears they like taking it in the ass more as Joe Biden is winning handily.
