53. DU is an echo chamber, so divisive OP's simply reverberate among us and no one else

I would imagine most participants here are Democrats. There are, of course, exceptions, but we self-police very, very well.

My problem with Bernie supporters is their effect on the voting public in general. I don't argue that everyone has a right to support the candidate of their choice, i just feel that the 2020 election will be an existential one, and the sooner we endorse a singular candidate to oppose the abject fascism we're faced with, the sooner we can ensure a concerted and laser-focused counter to our archest of nemeses.

In other words, it's time for Bernie supporters to take one for Team USA, not even the Democrats, but Team USA. And trust that Joe has your back and will work with you to bring some of Bernie's ideas to the political landscape.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
