(2,061 posts)5. Sanders completely cratered after 16.
It's blatantly clear that people see much better choices than Sanders this time around. It's becoming hilarious how people keep trying to cling to hope by making absurd comparisons and arguments.
It's only fitting that this is how he goes out. He is running a campaign that has equated increasing the number of insured to a terrorist attack, surrounded himself with people who gave Trump an assist in the last election, and rails against some of our strongest institutions. The guy is simply out of control. His heart attack explains a lot of the earlier confusion in his campaign. Not sure if that is still it or it's more about the people he has put in place around him.
