And why should he? The truth is, before 2016 (or so), hardly anyone outside of Vermont had heard of Bernie Sanders, much less took him seriously. Why should he do or say anything to upset that apple-cart now? I believe there was a time when Sanders had the best of intentions for his country and would not have tolerated the level of abuse coming from his supporters. But, I also believe there came a point when he grew frustrated with not being taken seriously; and so, in that moment, Bernie the Demagogue was born. Perhaps he does agree with the racist, misogynistic, xenophobic and other deplorable things his supporters are saying and doing online and in public. But, if he doesn't, then I have to believe he's allowing it all to continue, because to him, the "revolution" is what matters.

Guess this means she won't be officially endorsing Bernie Sanders?

Yes, and it's precisely those double standards that continue making the Democrats look like pencil-necked geeks to the Republicans' bullying jocks.

It might have been stupid -- or, "inappropriate" and "dangerous," to quote the GOP -- but so were B**** K********'s words at his SCOTUS confirmation hearing, which I believed Schumer was echoing. (Especially the part about "reaping the whirlwind," or whatever). Yet, because it was a Democrat saying those things this time around, of course, the Republicans want to accuse him of making a deliberate threat on individual's lives. (And Schumer, like all purity-striving Democrats before him, caves almost immediately and apologizes, even though he did absolutely nothing wrong.) Meanwhile, Donald Trump accuses the left-leaning justices of political bias on little more than his legendary golden gut, and John Roberts remains silent. I'm so damn tired of this country. Too damn tired, in fact, even to CARE about Aaron Schock. So, the bastard's out. Congratulations, Aaron. You're still not invited to Pride Week.

Joe Biden haters/Bernie Sanders supporters: "If he can stay awake long enough!"

Agree. In a way, Elizabeth Warren sits in the catbird seat. Her endorsement could mean plenty to Joe Biden's or Bernie Sanders' campaigns. So, if I were her, I would just say, "I will support whoever the nominee turns out to be," and then leave it at that.

I hope she gets the chance, too. I would have gladly voted for Elizabeth Warren, had I believed she stood the best chance of defeating Donald Trump. She actually came into this contest with plans and not just rhetoric. I just believe that we still aren't ready for a female president, and that after everything we have been through with Trump, people are too skittish -- maybe more skittish than ever -- to break that glass ceiling. Nope. If there's one thing I know about Black women, it's that they don't like their names in other people's mouths without their permission. By the way, has anyone else been following the back-and-forth between John Roberts and Chuck Schumer?

So, according to the Washington Post, our president told Fox News' Sean Hannity that he has a "hunch" the mortality numbers on the coronavirus are being inflated. (The CDC says the mortality rate is 3.4%. Donald Trump believes it to be more like one). Mind you, he has no intel to back up his latest claims; he just has a hunch. If I've said it once, I've said it a million times: this [!@#$%^&*] is gonna get us all killed. In that regard, Bernie Sanders is a lot like my ex-sister-in-law (who is a conservative Republican, by the way). Neither will address the issue of racism in this country, because neither believes racism exists or exists anymore.

JESSICA FLETCHER 2024! Again, I'm just saying.

Except for Cabot Cove. They're satisfied with do-nothing Sam Booth, thank you very much.

Whoopi would be better off hoping for another movie starring Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd.

Yup!

Mama Khan heard on some crackpot YouTube channel that Joe Biden is rumored to be considering Michelle Obama as his running mate. "And what would their campaign slogan be," I asked. "'Reunited, and It Feels So Good'?" I swear, as much as people hate the Clintons and the Obamas, not only do they talk a lot about them, but they also appear to be more willing to see them BACK on the political stage more than folks who actually love them!

"Forget the Jheri curl, Bernie, just head straight for the Kangol hat and FUBU jersey!"

Oh, I get it: Black people shut his "revolution" down last night; so, now, he's gonna do whatever it takes -- even use our president -- to get us to vote for his basic ass. Someone please stop this s.o.b. before he takes it upon himself to get a Jheri curl, tap dance or eat fried chicken. On second thought, let Bernie get the Jheri curl. I could use more hard laughs.

Two thoughts: 1. The only way a woman will ever get to be president in this country is if she can straddle the hood of a car like Tawny Kitaen. 2. Next time Mike Bloomberg wants to blow through a ton of cash in a hurry, he should do like the rest of us and go to Vegas. But seriously. Same. It's way past time for many people in this country to admit that their revolution is not coming. That ALONE should make rational people think twice before voting for Bernie Sanders. It cannot be said enough: the South Carolina primary changed everything. EVERYTHING. And, like @marceline said upthread, all it took was giving African-Americans their chance to be heard.

Texas hasn't been called yet. Nevertheless, the fact that it remains so close between Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders proves (to me) that Sanders' supposed stronghold over Latino voters isn't all that strong after all. If it were, I think we'd be more sure about the results there. If Elizabeth Warren were to drop out tomorrow, to whom would her followers shift their support? Would they align themselves with Biden, or with Sanders? On the one hand, it seems like a no-brainer that they would go to another progressive, like Sanders. But, on the other hand, Bernie Bros have been so toxic that I actually see Warren's followers' support shifting toward Biden instead.

SYMONE SANDERS 2024. I'm just saying.

And this is bad, because...? Who needs the Secret Service when you have...your wife? But seriously. Jill Biden was taking a TREMENDOUS risk to protect her husband like she did. I hope she's okay.

Dairy protesters are like, well, like dairy products. If you're not careful, both will "repeat" on you.

"Supporting Trump Ruined My Acting Career!" As if you had one, boo!

Pretty much, lol! For most of Bernie Sanders' supporters, getting rid of Donald Trump isn't enough, because they have convinced themselves that every politician on either side of the proverbial aisle is a corrupt elitist whose hands are in the pockets of every Wall Street billionaire. Ergo, electing Joe Biden (or any politician other than their designated savior) would be just more of the same kind of politics that puts the interests of the rich over everything else. To them, only Bernie is "pure" enough to dismantle the system, as it exists, and bring about a revolution that would finally put the working class first. At least, that's what they surmised when a few saw him in the upper room and felt the stigmata in his hands. Translation: "Welp, that's a billion dollars I'll never get back!"

His so-called large coalition dwells mostly in a far-off land called Brigadoon.

PREACH.
