Tells me all I need to know about what’s really going on in our government schools

Does everyone already forget that the one person ultimately responsible for Donald Trump’s impeachment is Joe Biden?

It’s because no one knows who can beat Trump so many we go with the guy who gets the most votes? Crazy idea right?

So democrats 18 to 45 is the age range that doesnt want to work and provide for themselves. I could have told you that. There is no free. Nothing is free. Commies and socialists are chicken hawk scumbags luring these morons with 'free.' We will save them from themselves. 👌

Which means he is splitting the vote and could get the nomination with only 30%... smh

I don’t know what to say to anyone who hates that Trump is a nationalist and votes for Bernie, a socialist... and vice versa.... all of you are voting for historically awful ideologies... Nationalism and socialism only do well at the beginning - then they quickly spoil

Bern baby Bern🔥🔥🔥

Far less but still a lot better than you expected hed do with the older crowd didnt he

So did best among the group LEAST likely to vote, and worst among the group MOST likely to vote - sounds like a winning combo.

Does a SenSanders ewarren ticket make sense in either order?

Far less, but still won?

The ones who remember the Cold War?

Seems (un)legit

FakeNews DNCInterference

Uhm hello? He's leading in that category!

We care about the cause of Trump, not the symptom!

LMAO

So 46%+ of people are voting for Sanders? Well, that's great news!

Boudin has been endorsed by Commie's, BernieTheRed to Hamas-linked 'Women's March' co-founder Linda Sarsour to BLM hate crime hoax propagandist Shaun King to radical Chicago DA & Jussie Smollett fixer Kim Foxx to Black Panther Party commie revolutionary Angela Davis.

Why do they think Bernie can win? He’s the Hubert Humphrey of the 21st century. Humphrey ran four times, each time with the same following and each time he lost

He's winning that category but nice try

However, among those most focused on choosing the candidate who aligns with them on major issues, Sanders soared to 57% support, per preliminary entrance poll results.
