    The maps says 2019.

    Biden won the primary in 2020 and proceeded to win the presidency.

    You should know because you’re been posting anti-Biden content since then.

        Sanders won the first 3 primaries in a row and then the establishment freaked out and all fell in line behind Biden.

        Okay but before the primaries ended Biden had literally double the votes of Bernie, it wasn’t exactly a close race.

        So?

        Isn’t the point of the primaries to find the candidate most people would want to vote for?

        The primary should always be between two candidates or using ranked choice voting. If there are ten candidates in the primary and the winner has 10.1% of the vote you cannot tell whether they are the most popular one.

        Sanders lost because he was less popular than Biden. Obama calling all other spoiler candidates to drop out ensured the candidate who most people prefer won. After all, if the candidates who dropped out had policies more similar to Sanders, they would have supported him instead of Biden.

          LMAO no. It’s for “party” insiders to nominate whatever ghoul is at the top of their control pyramid.

          if the candidates who dropped out had policies more similar to Sanders, they would have supported him instead of Biden.

          Exactly. These ghouls are loyal to their own pyramid, not humanity.

            Then why be upset Sanders lost the primary? If he didn’t have a chance in the first place there is no way Biden (or anyone really) could have “stolen” his victory.

        Yeah, Sanders lost in 2020 just like he did in 2016

        I remember that really pissing Trump off because he was pushing hard to run against him.

        I don’t think Trump was pushing for Sanders because Trump thought it’d be a harder fight to win.

      Plus I think you’re referring to this poll

      A Monmouth University poll released Monday showed Sanders and Warren effectively tied with Biden, but the survey has a large margin of error and is an outlier compared with other recent national polls, which have usually shown Biden with a lead of at least several points.

      Biden, Sanders and Warren are tied for the lead in one poll. Biden’s on top in another - Aug. 27, 2019

      As someone who’s been here since the beginning of the whole Reddit debacle you are correct. That’s been their posting style from as far as I can remember.

        So, a vast collection of people are just one uniform singular entity in your head?

        Just wondering if you literally consider these kind of posts to essentially be one “person”?
