I forgot which primary, but conservative democrats formed a coalition where everyone but Biden withdrew, forcing Bernie to split the vote with another progressive candidate .

Wow it's amazing these powerhouses of national politics pulled out just to screw Bernie over.

I mean Rick Ojeda, sure, he's always hated Bernie, but Mike Gravel? You'd think he and Bernie would be friends!

That's called Politics. They all want to win and they all make deals to help themselves at the expense of their opponents.

Bernie could've offered Pete and Klob the VP spot or whatever prestigious position they wanted to stay in the race and keep splitting the vote.

But the real issue is that Bernie never solved his problem from '16 which was that he is not popular with black people in the south. It killed him twice.
