Agreed all except for according to plan. This was NOT the plan. They thought they could drag him across the finish line and did not expect his rapid decline and progression of his dementia. He was the most “electable” but watching him now I realize that they could not have picked a worse candidate. The fake Mexican or that Buttgay guy or my 9 year old daughter would’ve been better. At least they can all read a fucking teleprompter
He was always supposed to be a "transitional candidate". That was their own words.
Before the election or after the election, they knew he was ill and deteriorating. A deteriorating temp candidate gives them the excuse to anoint whomever they like, without them having to win through the primaries.
Before he steps down, you'll see the MSDNC start telling the truth about him. About his track record, and his condition. And they'll pretend they're telling the truth because they're good honest journalists. And you'll see posts like this one from the OP. Amazed to see CNN doing the right thing. etc.
There was no way that he was the most electable candidate. I firmly believe Sanders was the only real opposition to Trump, and that was due to his passion and consistency. Bootygay (or whatever is name was) was a close second, but he was so fake that he would've easily been obliterated by Trump. The dems knew this as well, which is why they cheated Sanders out of the nomination twice.
They panicked and pushed Biden through when they saw Sanders winning early on. I don't think they expected his mental decline to happen so quickly, though. I laughed when the media tried to push him through as the "most electable." As if swing voters will choose for this piece of wet cardboard over the high energy Trump.
Yep. Bernie won the first three primaries - Biden finished fourth in Iowa, and an embarrassing FIFTH in New Hampshire. He was all but finished. How can you be a serious candidate when a blue state prefers four other people ahead of you?
Then the DNC had an emergency meeting, got all the smaller candidates - Buttigieg, Harris and co. to drop out and support Biden. And miraculously, Biden started winning (though Bernie still won CA). Bernie should be fucking livid and ought to be running as a third party to screw them. They've done it to him twice now! At his age, what does he have to lose?
One of the other 4 progressives was more electable than him and Kamala. Biden/Kamala is the 'bury all the crap we did since 2008' candidate. I do not see someone like Sanders going to bat for them too much. They could not control him. Biden they can, he has always been a party man. It became pretty clear months ago Biden is not all there. So they are planing to 25th him. Ginsberg ending up in hospice a few weeks ago changes the whole thing with the cheat they want to pull. They may need to change it up a bit and switch out who the primary candidate is. But that will cause a shitstorm with the green party and West. and rightfully so. Never mind what the RNC would do too. Switchout is too late at this point. 25th amendment is their plan they are committed to it wither they like it or not.

Sanders is no longer principled, assuming he ever was. He sold out.
The fact that Bernie was popular among Democrats does not mean he has more chances than Biden in a general election.
Someone who calls himself a socialist is still difficult to elect for Independent voters, let alone Republicans that they are trying to win over.
I genuinely believe Biden was the best candidate they had, by far.
And to answer the previous poster, blacks and hispanics wouldn't vote for a homo.
