Bernie Sanders scored a commanding victory in Nevada’s presidential caucuses, cementing his status as the Democrats’ national front-runner. Next up: South Carolina's primary on Saturday and then Super Tuesday on March 3.

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., with his wife Jane O'Meara Sanders, waves his hand during a rally in El Paso, Texas, Saturday, Feb. 22, 2020.

In a show of confidence, Sanders left Nevada for Texas, which offers one of the biggest delegate troves in just 10 days on Super Tuesday. While Sanders’ victory in Nevada encouraged his supporters, it only deepened concern among establishment-minded Democratic leaders who fear he is too extreme to defeat Trump. Sanders for decades has been calling for transformative policies to address inequities in politics and the economy, none bigger than his signature “Medicare for All” health care plan that would replace the private insurance system with a government-run universal program.

“Before we rush to nominate Senator Sanders in our one shot to take on this president, let’s take a sober look at what is at stake for our party, for our values and for those with so much to lose,” he said. “Senator Sanders believes in an inflexible, ideological revolution that leaves out most Democrats, not to mention most Americans.”

Klobuchar, campaigning in her home state of Minnesota Saturday night, claimed Nevada success no matter her poor showing.The first presidential contest in the West tested the candidates’ strength with black and Latino voters for the first time in 2020. Nevada’s population aligns more with the U.S. as a whole, compared with Iowa and New Hampshire: 29% Latino, 10% black and 9% Asian American and Pacific Islander.

That's probably all he's gonna win.

The DNC will never allow Bernie to be their nominee. Bloomberg is their chosen one.

Yeah good job BURNT u an your 3400 voters lol

From what I've seen from all the democratic candidates. They aren't worth voting for. If a chimpanzee was running against any of them for the nomination. I would be better off voting for the chimp ! They can't manage a McDonald's let alone be President of the United States.

It's time for the bottom two candidates to suspend their campaigns.

Lol so you all think every millionaire black athlete actor and business owner is gonna vote for a white socialist that wants to take away what they earned by taxes and distribution? 😂😂😂😂

Another one! POTUS

No!!!! We need someone who can make sure Trump doesn’t win again.

Look at Bernie, the face of senility. I hear he wanders and constantly forgets where he is at. Hell he doesn't even comb his hair anymore.

Sucks to be a liberal!

How could BernieSanders have momentum when momentum fabricated GOP/Republican supporters who voted in open DemocraticPrimary in Nevada & New Hampshire at urging DonaldTrump who rather face Socialist Sanders in GeneralElection than MikeBloomberg Dems BlueWave Mike2020

now let the two extremes go at it between the democrats and the republican s this will be fun.

Doomburg will pay him to drop out or have him removed

Hilarious Bernie is stealing the Democrats nomination. The reality is there will be no democrats even running against Trump because Bernie is a socialist period. The Democrats keep shooting themselves in the face repeatedly. Entertainment.

Bernie is a communist. Do you all want gulags or something?

Homophobia was extremely evident at the coverage of PeteButtigieg😮👎🏽 on the news stations. I am very disappointed that DISCRIMINATION is still taking place in a very flagrant way and people seem OK with it. COLOR ME 😔 SAD 👎🏾

Sanders Yang GANG 🇺🇸

Well this is good news. I like him and Warren very much.

FeelTheBern ! !

One step closer to reelecting Trump

Only three contest, Bernie has small lead, bernie DOES NOT have a majority of delegates... So maybe we should not call the race just yet.

Looks like Trump is going to be an 8 year guy after all. Political parties jus can’t get out of their own way

_Politics BernieSanders had every conceivable advantage in his life, yet failed to become 'rich' until he ran for president. He IS what his cult claims to loathe.

Did anyone take a history lesson at your school or college? The message this guy is preaching will make the USA a banana republic and we will stand in long soup and bread lines. Nothing is free, he and his friends will be busy lining up their pockets!

Thank you, Russia?

I dont trust any of it anymore

After 3 small states, just 3 small states. This thing just started. Whew.

3500 votes out of 7200 total WOW

I’m wondering if any of Bernie’s supporters would be surprised if Bernie chose Tulsi or AOC as his runningmate. Would that dissuade them at all?

What a mess 'Presidential Election 2020'. While I will never cast a vote for Trump. the same can be said as 'I will never cast a vote for Sanders. Trumps is an idiot, Sanders and his canned 'speach🥱' from the 2016 Elections. My option, write in 'Fred Flintstone or Barney Rubble'

But majority of Democrats don’t want him. Fact. If he wins it will be a trump move. A trump win. Trump and Russia know this.

Bloomberg's gloves are laced, receiving shoulder massages from his handlers...When is the next debate?

NeverBernie

Like I’ve said before, I’m a moderate, if CRAZY Bernie is the nominee, I will NOT be voting for him. I’ll do a write in!!!

I expect Biden to signal strongly that Warren is his first choice for VP and Warren to signal she's amenable.

Do you think maybe all the Dem contenders will finally start critiquing him NOW Now, when it's almost too late? Take a break from destroying evil Bloomberg and go after the actual frontrunner? Leave each other alone for a while to go after the real danger? Time'll tell.

bernie is the climate candidate Nothing else matters in 2020 and beyond bloomberg is another useless billionaire buttigieg is the zuckerberg puppet. So, it's Bernie/pro science against trump/anti science Vote for climate stability

Thanks Democrats! Making 4 more years easy.

Elect the one guy with absolutely no shot to win the national election... solid strategy...

Go Bernie!

Nerver Communism NeverBernie Disgusting creature. This is the end of the democratic party.

So much love! 😍😍😍🔥💙

Imbeciles voting for a communist---

Sen. Bernie Sanders takes control of Democratic race with resounding Nevada win: ANALYSISWhile votes continue to trickle in, it’s clear Sen. Bernie Sanders secured a convincing win in Nevada, leaving with a jackpot likely to land him a delegate lead. I can’t believe it’s going to be a Trump Sanders race. Literally, worst case scenario. I’m so done with politics. This electorate is stupid af Democrats are the laughing stock of the world. Nominating an 80 year old Socialist to head your party... brilliant. I'd be excited if he were a REAL Democrat.
