Sanders: The Dem Nominee Must Beat Trump [View all]

Bernie just made the best case for his nomination on Rachel's' show tonight. We must beat Trump. Rachel and Chris must know what we all know. Everyone of us have seen the polls with Trump vs Bernie and seen Trump getting burned in almost everyone of them! It's not just Bernie's team that has seen those polls.

Maybe someone should drop out of the race and support the other Dem candidate. Maybe that person should NOT be Bernie!
