Because he's scared of Bernie basically. Like all the billionaires. Prepare for the stock market to take a hit if Bernie wins.
He was shilling for Trump in 2016, he supported Bush. He's basically a moderate republican. But he's got a lot of money and America is a pseudo oligarchy, as Jimmy Carter once said in fact, so he can buy his way onto the debate stage. Once there though he fucking tanked. Lost 3 points at least since Nevada. Biggest loss of all the candidates. Name recognition gonna get him a long way though. Will be interesting to see what happens at the convention... If it's a brokered convention I can see democrats picking him because they all buy into the narrative that he can beat Trump... but if his debate performance in Nevada is anything to go by the Trump machine is gonna fucking carve him to pieces both on stage and in the media.
The people will get punished by billionaires if they elect Sanders just like the people were punished by Anthem, Aetna, Humana, UMR, United Healthcare, Medical Mutual, etc, for electing Obama.
What they are claiming about the economy if Sanders gets elected is more of a threat and self-fulfilling prophecy rather an actual ramifications.
