What is the point of de Blasio PUBLICLY pressuring Warren to endorse Sanders?

Does he think Warren will endorse Bernie if he, de Blasio, shames her into it?

Is he trying to make himself look more important?

Is he trying to make her look weak?

What is de Blasio trying for here?

All these people TELLING Elizabeth Warren what she should do is ridiculous. After tonight's results she should come out and endorse Biden and say it's because of all the harassment she's gotten from the Sanders camp since she withdrew.

telling Senator Elizabeth Warren that she should endorse Senator Bernie Sanders feels like "mansplaining" to me.

He should just stop with all the media stuff he is generating. Just shut up, Bill. Quit while you're ahead...sheesh...
