I will say that Biden seems like he is well on the way to being the nominee.

And, I've got to admit that, as much as I like Bernie's platform, and I do, I think Biden is our best candidate in the face of the pandemic and economic crash.

Now if it was Warren still standing against Biden and not Sanders, I'd be singing a different tune. But for me, between Biden and Bernie, Biden inspires more trust. I think Biden can juggle the conflicting priorities you have in a crisis like this. I do not think Bernie can. I know Warren could.

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