they did with Clinton. Who was it that was bragging about how they drove Hillary Clinton's numbers down on their
Benghazi bullshit? That and James Comey killed her chances in 2016..

He's already attacked several candidates and will no doubt attack our eventual nominee. They'll all have to deal with it.

Expected behavior.

I don't think people believe what Trump is saying but anyone who is paying attention (And caucus goers do pay attention) knows how adept the Cons are at controlling the message may be nervous about it.

I hope I'm wrong. While I'm not a Biden support, Joe deserves better.

But Biden supporters have certainly been showing their ass today. (not directed @ OP)

Joe just isn't performing well, bad debates, confusion and so on.

It hasn't helped, but most Democrats don't care what Trump thinks.

Ironically, I do think Clinton's attacks on Sanders has helped him out.

Not to mention Pocahontas? Sorry but that’s how Trump will frame it. We got to find the candidate that will attract the most voters and forget about Trump.
