So yeah Bloomberg not only quit, but endorsed Biden instantly.
"RiggedPrimary" is now trending on twitter :rofl:

Warren supposedly meeting with her team in realtime right now, will presumably announce her campaign suspended within minutes/hours, doubt it will be more than 24 hours. And the real question is whether she'll endorse Biden or Bernie. I'm quite sure it will be Biden at this point, she waited until the dust had already settled and Biden won before quitting, so it would be really silly to endorse Bernie knowing it serves no purpose but division.

how does endorsement affect delegates? i assume not at all, but am too lazy to google it.


they're forced to vote for the 'dead' candidates on first ballot
on second ballot they're released to vote for whoever they want, but an endorsement almost guarantees they will vote for the person their preferred candidate endorsed.

I love that Warren is sticking in the race.

She is going to cause a riot. The Bernie Bro's will not go down quietly.

Delicious.

So sleepy joe pulled it off, huh

These debates are going to be fantastic


Yeah, he did.

I'll gladly vote for Creepy Joe over Trump, but these debates are going to be horrible. Going to be a lot of cognitively impaired, incoherent, testosterone-fueled rambling.

in most regards it has been a one party system for quite a while. some nuances on secondary issues that both parties managed to characterise as defining and significant in order to divide america, but they have both been complicit in selling politics to their corporate overlords, and it was an overwhelming success.

Consensus is USA are ruled by a political class and power concentration is reinforced due the size of the country, which is right wing for both parties.
