The socialist senator from Vermont and his supporters seem to have the upper hand over a party establishment worried he’s too leftwing

Raging against the machine has taken Bernie Sanders a long way. In 2016, his disdain for “the establishment” and the “donor class” gave progressives a near-perfect foil to Hillary Clinton, who was cast as the “anointed” Democratic candidate for president.

Doesn't add up. If he could be so outwitted by Hillary, how on earth could he hope to beat Trump, the master tactician who even had Mueller cave in despite Dems backing.

All of them? I like Bernie, but like Yogi said its kinda like deja vu all over again🙄

US gerontocracy like Chine before ,where are the new elites for the future ?

Might be the start of something: Cancel brexit, Sanders in the US, reform the EU making it about quality employment and a powerful middle class instead of focusing on deficit and bureaucrats, tax big tech companies and corporations fairly, close tax havens. One can only dream 😅

Never Bernie. The problem is his erratic base will carry him while the large field will stop the good ones. Bernie is the Democratic Trump. Both are Russian products. Follow the money.

'On the Ropes'? Nah! This isn't Hillary's party anymore.

Looks like his ready for the old people’s care home

Just a moment, Joe Biden has been summoned to rescue the Democrats and keep the money flowing...Joe can’t beat the Bernie but the money will still flow in.

The issue seems to be that Saunders and PeteButtigieg are the two Democrats who make sense and offer an alternative but we can write the nasty classless campaign that would be run by the Trump team against either of them - and accept it would have gravitas with the ignorant.

Leading in the polls, most diverse base of any candidate, best outlook for green change and the best voting record. I'd say the question is a bit disingenuous! Why *wouldn't* he be the guy?

I am sure Putin will be pleased.

No

...last time yes, but Hillary robbed him of that, next time, no.

Bernie Sanders?- No. Too old.

Nope

Afraid not..he is not credible enough to swing marginal voters away from Trump

Bias leftist dreams

Hillary Clinton specifically rigged the DNC to remove Bernie Sanders so he wouldn't win last time

No

Stop.

What’s all this ‘Bernie has Democrats on the ropes’ crap? Like ‘Only I can Fix It! 2.0’ is somehow apart? If he can’t act like one he shouldn’t pretend to run as one! NeverBernie2020

hahahah thats the funniest thing I've read today

Nope!!!

The dark horse will beat Trump. He is the only one that can unite americans once again. Andrew Yang, younger, smarter, and a real problem-solver.

NO !

Bernie Sanders has Democrats on the ropes – is he the man to beat orange man?

I don’t care who it is. If they’re blue, vote no matter who. The maniac in the WH needs to go!

Are you not paying attention? The Russians already consider this man an asset.

Bernie is not going to be the nominee. Get over it.

Yes he is.

I'll watch the entire Earth burn to the ground before I cast a vote for Bernie. He needs to run as an Independent or Democratic-Socialist or whatever the fsck he's calling himself this time besides a member of the Democratic Party.

A young dynamic country like the USA does not need another rich old white guy as POTUS enough is enough surely

Yes

1. Biden polls over Bernie and he will announce this week. 2. Based on history, the Bernie bubble will burst - outspoken progs do not advance in prez elections 3. It's WAAAY to early

No

Bahahahahahahahahahaha
