Krystal Ball's co-host says non-Sanders Dems were "just waiting to be told who to vote for"

Saagar Enjeti is a Bernie supporter, like Krystal, and he's now trying to attribute Biden's wins to the Dems who don't back Sanders being sheep.






Looks like many non-Sanders D's were just waiting who to be told to vote for. Biden's relative weakness/ largesse of the field gave Sanders a big advantage

Consolidation and establishment signaling to Joe make this a much tougher race for Bernie

He says nice things about Sanders the way Tucker Carlson does because of populism. But given a head to head they'll still defend/support Trump.

I didn't know who to vote for until the "establishment" told me for whom to vote! No free will in the "establishment". Don't understand the issues in the "establishment"!

Give me a fucking break!

PS, when will my check come in the mail from the "establishment"?

a majority were never going to vote for Bernie-the majority would literally vote for every other Democrat not named Tulsi

Bernie never expanded his base-its smaller today than 4 years ago
