An agreement between the Sanders and Biden campaigns will allow Sen. Sanders to retain sway over hundreds of delegates he lost by suspending his campaign, giving him more influence at the DNC than party rules would typically indicate.

more conciliatory approach to Sanders

Sanders has endorsed Biden, but is still hoping to accrue as many delegates as possible to the Democratic National Convention, scheduled for August, in order to influence the party’s future.

Why do dems give Bernie, a never-Dem, such power. He can't win an election, his bros never actually go and vote, and he's useless in every aspect of governing.

Now perhaps the platform will include progressive ideas instead of old republicans tired of the Trump GOP. I want to hear about that platform.

Biden is the Dems weakest link! Too much baggage! If he bows out, we need someone to beat DipJ. This whole election is a shitshow! Biden in the basement. Sexual assault allegations and no VP selection! WTF? 🤷🏼‍♀️

This is wrong on multiple levels. Do other candidates get to retain their delegates for bully power? JoeBiden DNC how bout Kamala, Booker, Yang, Pete, Liz, Amy? This is going to cause major problems with the voting base that got JoeBiden where he’s at. We didn’t vote Bernie.

Why? Why are the rules being changed for Bernie?

Good on Bernie. Hope he can use this to influence policy positions

Pretty smart of both of them. Now we can move on. And if anyone is still bitching about single payer insurance they had better be prepared to pay my medical expenses if I get “laid off” from my essential job.

I trust Joe to be shrewd enough to see through Bernie's backstabbing shenanigans, but honestly BS should not be given any concessions at all.

This is horrible JoeBiden Don’t do it!

Nothing will stop the Berners from making up new conspiracies against Biden... from dementia to rape! They won’t let it stop bc they only want their cult leader.

Fresh BREATH of DECENCY.

Here’s the difference: Christine Blasey Ford — Couldn’t remember location, date or time. — Didn’t tell anyone until 3 decades later. — No police report Tara Reade — Remembers date, time and location. —Told numerous people when it happened. — Filed a police report RT!

Do the media think Biden supporters are zombies, uneducated not able to see through BS when they see it & hear it. Bernie is all the way wrapped up tied up tangled up in this Tara BS. He sent his Hound Dogs out to hunt for him & this is what they drug in

I smell something corrupt...

... why!?

Hillary did the same thing -- put Bernie supporters on key committees and it didn't stop a single Berner from showing up and acting like pukes.

Smdh JoeBiden SymoneDSanders dnc TomPerez SpeakerPelosi what is this nonsense? Since when did losers hold this much sway? He was going to lose resoundingly anyway. If the voters wanted him to have much sway they would have voted for him. They voted for you JOE! MAN UP!!

Dumbest thing JoeBiden has ever done. BernieSanders is out to destroy the Party, not help us.

someone needs to remind Sanders that HE LOST. If he wants to have influence at the DNC, he should have WON.

An agreement? Sounds like that was Bernie’s plan all along.

Biden shd be very careful. . .

Sanders has one of the biggest egos I've ever seen in politics.

Shouldn't have done it. It won't matter to berners and it won't change their disruption.

A wise decision Joe Biden from several aspects.

This is stupid, JoeBiden SenSanders cannot be trusted

. . . . .

China and Russia will be so happy if Biden selected as the president of America... 🤣 America will be an internationla joke...
