.@MeghanMcCain can’t be any worse than a 73 year old white supremacist who subsists on #bigmacs 🤷‍♂️

[Meghan McCain @MeghanMcCain]

Democrats really gonna nominate a 78 year old white socialist who recently had a heart attack? Really......

Dear Bernie supporters, you’ve gotten inside the head of Donald Trump

[jordan @JordanUhl]

"Bernie Sanders is a phenomenon...he's doing stuff we don't talk about, he appeals to young people, people of color, he's got an army of donors. If anybody else had all that we'd say this guy is our guy. But for whatever reason we talk about everybody but Bernie." -@VanJones68

[Ben Wyman @bwyman2017]

The candidates are afraid of him and by focusing on second and third place the party can downplay the importance of @SenSanders win and momentum. It’s not different than 2016

[Nate Silver @NateSilver538]

I know a Sanders win is somewhat priced in, but I'm not sure why the story is about who finishes in 2nd and 3rd place instead of him winning, especially if it looks like a decently clear win.

[Ben Wyman @bwyman2017]

Will any other state even entertain an incumbent challenge though?

[Michael Socolow @MichaelSocolow]

Big news nobody's reporting: Bill Weld got 9% in Republican primary (Trump, incumbent president, only won 86% of GOP votes).

Shades of Eugene McCarthy and LBJ in '68???!

[Sara Gideon @SaraGideon]

No one should have to choose between buying groceries or paying for insulin. Our health care system is broken—and it’s time Republicans and Democrats work together to lower the cost of prescription drugs like we have here in Maine.

[Frank Luntz @FrankLuntz]

During Trump’s first 36 months in office, the U.S. economy has gained 6.6 million jobs.

But during a comparable 36-month period at the end of Obama’s tenure, employers added 8.1 million jobs.

One of the things I miss most about Barack Obama is his sense of humor. Trump’s only idea of being funny is to give mean and demeaning nicknames to those who oppose him. It’s an index into the man’s unpleasant character.
