I don't care about Sanders personality. I just don't think he's competent enough to promote the kind of agenda he promotes. His surrogates have turned competency into technocracy and given it a negative connotation. Personally it's the main quality I look for in a president especially after Trump's garbage ass.
Bruh, they equated math and economics with "neoliberalism" while all these patreon socialist keep selling a false bill of goods
Yea you cats calling warren a snake are disingenuous as fukk and it’s not even worth having discussions with y’all. You sound childish as fukk and act like we’re in the coliseum discussing James harden flopping for free throws or embiids bytchassness. It’s funny how you look at other candidates weaknesses and magnify them when you’re own candidate has his weaknesses too. Y’all nikkas in here rushing to post anytime liz points out a difference from Bernie and talk about other supporters being snowflakes.It’s just bad faith arguments and trolling at this point.
It’s disgusting. You would think Warren was Trump the way they talk about her.
Immaturity bro, idk what happened to this section smhYea you cats calling warren a snake are disingenuous as fukk and it’s not even worth having discussions with y’all.

You're right, it wasn't the same situation. Bernie's was even worse. Whereas Liz is in a 6 person race with the frontrunner garnering 29% of the voting share, Bernie was in a clear 2-person race with the other candidate winning a 55% majority of the popular vote, and he still tried to get superdelegates to overturn the popular will of the people and install him just because he believed he was the better candidate in the general election.
Bernie in 2016:
“The sky is blue”
Bernie Bros in 2020:
“He wasn’t saying he believes the sky is blue. He was just existing in the framework that persisted at the time, and at the time the sky was blue. Completely different situation.”

Two quick thoughts looking at this...
1) This is why I keep saying hold up on critiquing the strategies from the Sanders campaign. Not that I'm saying it's definitely good or anything, but it's been outside of the box in ways that are just too hard to judge out the box. The loudest voices in the room have constantly hit the campaign for strategic blunders but the numbers have never really bared out the criticisms...yet...we'll see if it sticks and can evaluate it better when we have more results to work from.
2) On that same "outside the box strategy" line of thinking; I think one of the more interesting bits to explore will be how Sanders has effectively hit locations where Dems haven't always campaigned or shown up. A lot of canvassers and phone bankers have mentioned when people tell them "you're the only one I've heard from" and I'm really curious if this can translate in any of the measurables. It's another one in the "too soon to tell" box but it is one aspect of the Sanders strategy that I'm really intrigued by.

Biden is trying everything to win SC primary.
Speaking of outside the box
I don't think any other Dem campaign has a digital operation like this
His antics make Bernie more popular, though.
