1. Disgusting!

Can’t biden just win on his own?

[blm]

10. Why are Sanders supporters trying to hound Warren out of the race

this past week?

[riversedge]

27. Warren is the progressive that is trying to compete with Sanders.

[redstateblues]

13. Biden is a Democrat Bernie is a Socialist

It stands to reason that Dems would circle the wagons

[onetexan]

22. +1 K&R

[Magoo48]

52. Oh, "socialist" as in the weaponized form of the word, how, well, Republican.

[coti]

14. Can't Sanders, or does he need the rest of the vote to be split five ways? nt

[Indykatie]

32. Bernie's Only Plan Was to Win 30% In a Fractured Field and Have More Delegates

than the other candidates. With that he thought he would come out the winner in a brokered convention. He NEVER thought the other candidates would coalesce around one candidate so soon in the process. Biden has turned his 30% crowded field strategy on its head.

Go Joe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Codeine]

16. Your candidate's campaign is currently

begging Warren to step down, so what’s the issue?

Besides, consider the source.

[Dem2]

49. Lol

Please. The hypocrisy!

[dem4decades]

51. why can't Sanders win in a head to head match up with Biden? If he can, let him.

[madaboutharry]

53. Maddow just responded and said this is not true.

Making shit up on twitter is what is disgusting.

Maddow responded she reported no such thing.

2. Shaun King .... bwaaaaaahahahahahahahahahaha

If people ask Bloomberg to drop out, it is not some evil plot. It happens all the time.

[hlthe2b]

3. +1

[blm]

4. Shaun's team has no problem demanding Warren drop out to help Sanders.

They really must not own mirrors.

[NCProgressive]

6. +1,000,000

[Mike 03]

19. EXACTLY THIS

[RandySF]

5. So?

Bernie can attract his voters, right?

[mcar]

7. Go away Shaun

Talk about sour grapes.

[bearsfootball516]

8. Uh huh. Shaun King literally has "Bernie Sanders surrogate" in his Twitter bio

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

9. So what? Nothing illegal or shady about asking

[we can do it]

11. Not buying the BS.

[Hav]

12. It's rigged! The repubs said so, too!

The "senior officials" cannot do anything if the voters elect who they want.

[Otto Lidenbrock]

15. Shaun King is the Jacob Wohl of the left

A total grifter and conman.

[nolabear]

17. Oh Lord, Shaun King. The QAnon of the Bernie Bros.

There are reasonable Bernie people. He’s not one of them.

[we can do it]

18. Did you actually see this or just regurgitate SKs BS?

I looked at Rachel’s twitter and see nothing.

[LizBeth]

20. So what? Bros are calling Warren C word and everything else to get her out.

They asked. So what?

[Squinch]

21. This is called politics.

[pampango]

23. Hardly shocking news. When two moderates drop out the day before Super Tuesday

to clear the way for Joe while the other leading left winger stays in the race despite doing worse in the primaries than the two moderates, the 'interference' is pretty obvious. I'll vote for Joe and I'm glad that Bernie has shown enough support for his radical agenda to make 'senior officials' nervous.

[renate]

24. I'm not seeing this on Rachel's Twitter feed

Am I missing something?

[getagrip_already]

25. THAT's NOT WHAT SHE SAID!!!!!!!

I'm listening to the friggin show. They discussed how a lot of people in the party are pressuring bloomberg to drop out, but nobody said party officials.

There is a huge friggin difference between democratic activists and the dnc acting qs a political agent.

It didn't happen.

Bernies camp is LYING!

[Faux pas]

26. Not again!

[Blue_true]

29. It's a lie. nt

[MFM008]

28. Senior officials wouldnt

Effect my vote for Joe.

[LiberalFighter]

30. I don't consider Shaun King a person with any credibility.

[lapucelle]

31. "Democrats are interfering in the Democratic primaries"?

That reminds me of Trump's claim that "Democrats colluded with Democrats".

This one's for you Shaun.

[Sunsky]

33. Shaun King is a propagandist

Rachel did not say that. Fake news.

[Codeine]

35. Turns out Shaun was a big fat liar.

[NurseJackie]

36. Here you go...

Rachel Maddow:
What?

No. I didn’t report any such thing.

Shaun King

[SharonClark]

37. Thanks for clearing that up.

[Scurrilous]

47. Thanks.

I'm surprised people don't know about this guy. Anytime you see the name 'Shaun King' on something think x 10.

[LongtimeAZDem]

38. That sounds like BS to me

[we can do it]

56. It is BS. Divisive BS.

[SidDithers]

39. Maddow herself tweeted that she reported no such thing...

Don't believe anything Shaun King posts.

Sid

[mindfulNJ]

42. So Rachel is on the conspiracy too???

[nini]

40. Rachel called him out on that lie on twitter

Shaun king is an embarrassment.

[Pisces]

41. This is not interfering. It's called politics. The voters are still deciding, and they want Biden.

If Warren and Bloomberg both drop it still will be a Biden gain. Elizabeth Warren’s voters are not feeling warm and fuzzy to Bernie due to the nasty treatment they are receiving.

[mindfulNJ]

43. Rachel Maddow herself replied

to this tweet and disavowed it herself.

[Scurrilous]

44. Shaun King is a grifter and is not to be believed.

At all, ever.

[MrsCoffee]

45. LIES.

Rachel herself denied this. But it’s the perfect snack food for the BoBers. They eat it up.

[Johnny2X2X]

46. The voters are behind Joe's surge

This is a garbage take, the voters resoundingly gave Joe wins last night. Party had nothing to do with it.

[bdamomma]

48. I guess

those senior officials do not want to listen to the will of the American people. No donations to the DNC.

[Dem2]

50. So you believe everything you read on the internet?

Bernie's not doing the same with Warren? C'mon. Stop using a post like this to express your irritation about things not going your way.

[CousinIT]

54. This guy is notorious for making shit up

Maddow just called him out on a lie.

Verify anything he says. Not trustworthy.

[we can do it]

55. This is BS. Please delete.
