I must say, Ted Cruz making poorly executed memes while riding in the quiet car of the White Supremacist Express is pretty on brand for both him and 2020
@EmmaVigeland What if Obama calls Warren and asks her to suspend her campaign and unify behind Biden. At first, she thinks, well, I was going to anyway, I want to help Ber...
It's then the fog lifts, and Warren realizes the progressives left her long ago.

This tweet has been radically misunderstood, willfully so in many cases. Bernie is saying that party power brokers will/should not determine the winner. The People should. This wasn’t an arrogant or anti-democratic call. It was a call for democracy.
For those upset about critique of establishment politics:
There are D reps in SAFE blue seats who side w/ the NRA, are anti-LGBT+, and yet are protected because they advance the interests of big donors, Wall St, fossil fuels, etc.
It’s not “wrong” to take that on and do better.
As crappy as cable was tonight, I predict several commentators will start backing Bernie overnight.
Bernie will have to be more represented on cable moving forward as the nominee. Their contracts depend on it; they don’t want to give them up to the Bernie people.
Just watch.
