No endorsement from Warren. 3 ways forward:
1. She repeats 2016, endorses Biden in May.
2. She waits till this weekend to endorse the uniting figure of Biden at a rally, the race is over on Tuesday.
3. She waits till this weekend to endorse the big structural change of Bernie at a Michigan rally, the race continues.

I'm sorry berba, you are not made to be snarky
Clout chaser AOC playing nice with Warren to help her 2024 bid. Can't believe this shit. Thought you were one of us
Let's go, she's choosing 3.
This is quite dangerous that you think Clyburn is just bought by the insurance companies. Just give it a rest ffs
I think you need a course in probability.
Bloomberg harmed much more Biden than Warren harmed Bernie. Also, more than 2/3 of the delegates are in play, with the difference in delegates being in double digits. So plenty to play for Bernie, providing that actually the left wing of the party is bigger than the center wing.
Bernie Bro's 2016 - You know I'm not sure I can vote for a women who celebrated turning Libya into a open slave market and who has caused untold misery on millions of my fellow citizens.
Liberals 2016 - God look at these stupid white privilege bro's.
Warren voters 2020 - Actually universal health care is now bad because Stalin69 on twitter called me a ssssssnake.
Liberals 2020 - Oh you poor thing, dam those Bernie supporters are just the worst.

Indeed
i made the mistake of visiting insane person charlotte clymer's twitter page and have liquified my brain. she's so openly manipulative and so popularI'm sorry berba, you are not made to be snarky
edit - 2 days ago someone else wrote a 100-tweet thread, with 10k likes, about a bernie-supporting podcast, and when people started making fun of her, she muted it and charged 5 dollars for anyone to have a conversation with her. this is what i mean by twitter isn't real life.
Nah Biden was playing 5D Yahtzee all along.
I may need one in pedantics too.
Give what a rest? The top industries donating to Clyburn are insurance, health professionals and pharmaceuticals and AFLAC is a top contributor - now, why the f would they do that, because he's a handsome fella?

Spot on - I think this will be a drawn out race, with Bernie sticking until the end. Plenty of things can happen between now and the convention, Biden is a weak candidate.
Presently give Bernie a 20% chance of winning the nomination.
Similarly there wasn't much of a support difference in Buttigieg's voter base either, with Bernie holding the plurality. Seems like the endorsement part matters quite a bit.
Warren's endorsement will also help Bernie. Better late than never and better a salamander than a snake
biden memes are objectively funnier than bernie and trump, so uhh there's that to look forward to.
super tuesday was a mongoose
Like anyone is going to listen to a dude named Emily

Interesting Bernie is cancelling his rally in Mississippi and targeting Michigan Friday. Seems like a reasonable concession to expect the vote there to go to Biden again after looking at Super Tuesday results in the South
SHE DIDN'T EVEN COME TO MICHIGAN FFS... is going to repeated as HE DIDN'T EVEN COME TO MISSISSIPPI
I think its pretty reasonable to assume Biden will get it and refocus and be more strategic now.
Dude looks like a lady.Like anyone is going to listen to a dude named Emily
I get that but my point is that Democrats aren’t above being shady too. As if they’re the only one’s to play democracy fairly.
like it like it like it like it
Shady is relative here. Ultimately, Sanders is a non-Democrat who is attempting to usurp the party to advance his political ambitions. That is always going to garner significant pushback by actual long time Democrats who have put the sweat equity into developing the party for decades.
Sanders has compromised on many major bills, and is much more pragmatic than you're suggesting. You're mixing up the rhetoric with the reality. His voting record doesn't fit your narrative at all.
Maybe Sanders did approach Warren and she preferred the establishment. She didn't endorse him last time even when she wasn't a competitor. That's what seperates the two sides. The forces that support the establishment are far more powerful than the forces that oppose it. Of course no-one ever wants to believe their side is given an uneven advantage, they just celebrate the win while happily dismissing the evidence as nothing more than the losers crying over spilt milk.

Non Democrat by name but his policies were popular Democratic ideals back when they were more a of working class party. Democratic hero, FDR, especially comes to mind. Even JFK argued for universal healthcare and made out of this world promises like going to the moon.
It’s intriguing to see what Warren does. I’ve seen staffers/people with links to her campaign saying that she has no trust whatsoever on Biden to prosecute Trump era crimes or go after Wall Street executives, while she doesn’t think Sanders can get anything done because of his purity so stayed in to accumulate enough delegates to be able to leverage it in a brokered convention.
Now that she’s in no man’s land with ST’s result, I’m leaning towards her brokering a deal with Biden if the latter believe that it’d finish Sanders (which it likely would tbh), he’d never choose her as VP and I think at her age and the fact that she was only re-elected in 2018, she’s not overly concerned by her own political prospects anytime soon.

Agreed. It's interesting how the times (and $ donations) can change what it means to be a democrat.

Nice, this is good. If he spends millions of dollars in anti-Trump adds, it would be good.
Yep, it’s great news I had a horrible feeling he would pack up and go back to funding both D and R candidates.
