Here's an idea: if Bernie Sanders is going to keep saying he's a better canddate against Trump...

[brooklynite]

...maybe he could spend the nxt month campaigning against Trump and show us how he'll do it (instead of cntinuing to beat up on Clinton)

[Smarmie Doofus]

1. I actually agree w. that and advocated his doing so early on.

Including challenging Trump to a televised one on one.

Would have been good for him and .... imo.... bad for Clinton.

That's still true... though probably less so now.

[pangaia]

2. Do you wake up every morning with this nastiness, negativity, spite

and just pure hatred running through your veins?

I mean. it's not really healthy.


Maybe try starting your say with a little green tea.

[brooklynite]

5. Sorry; what did I say that's factually wrong or a bad idea?

Clinton has pivoted to running against Trump. Sanders has not.

8. See? This is why y'all are losing ... y'all keep making it personal.

Not that it's going to change anything at this late date. I'm sure the personal insults and attacks like that will continue, but Bernie will still not be the nominee.

[JaneyVee]

3. This is why he's losing to Trump.

[Trust Buster]

4. Because Trump and Sanders have both used the same pandering philosophy.

Whenever a global economic shift outside of the control of the average American has appeared throughout our history, politicians suddenly appear to exploit that anxiety offering promises they know they can't keep. In the final analysis, there is very little difference between someone who makes the general claim that he will make America great again without offering any detail and a guy that promises an agenda that he knows will not be allowed to see the light of day in our Legislative Branch. They are both pandering and exploiting anxiety.

7. Truman had to battle Henry Wallace and Strom Thurmond.

[Trust Buster]

18. Truman never had a Citizens United financial weapon pointed at his head.

6. Wake up. He does that.

[ljm2002]

9. I'm sure you would like that...

...since it would mean he is no longer trying to win the primary.

Fail.

[Demsrule86]

11. He lost the primary

and can not win...waste of time and money.

[lagomorph777]

16. A wee bit nervous about the upcoming primaries I see...

...begging Bernie to quit does not convey confidence.

Telling California, West Virginia, Oregon, et al that you don't care about their votes is not very democratic (though it may be very Democratic).

[Demsrule86]

10. That would be a first

Of course, Trump has said only nice things about Bernie...do you think he feels the Bern?

[aikoaiko]

12. Except he is not beating up on Clinton.

[-none]

13. The primary is not over until after the convention.

The Republicans are working on a way to replace Trump. If they do, then what? That very well could be two more mistakes by the Hillery camp right there. One for sure.

14. I watched a Bernie Sanders speech last week and he devoted 10 minutes to criticizing Trump.

Sanders concluded that section of the speech by saying that Donald Trump is a bigot who will lose because "Love trumps hatred." The crowd responded by chanting, "Love trumps hate."

[brooklynite]

15. That line I've heard before...I don't think it's enough

He's goint to have to start talking about Trump's policy ideas (thin as they may be)

[Eric J in MN]

17. Sanders has also criticized Trump for saying 'wages are too high'

...and that we shouldn't raise the minimum wage.
