Thank you Bernie, fucking thank you. Please for the love of everything decent, can we kick the piece of shit Trump out of office. Save my damn country, please
Bernie evidently thinks better things are possible with Joe.
I agree with Bernie!
He is head of Biden's policy task force, I don't t hink Sanders would just take an empty position.
Well fine, if Trump gets re-elected you can revel in how right you are. I don't what else Bernie was supposed to do.
I'm not going to waste my time explaining what a false equivalency is to Trump voters. You know what you are and what you're doing to your own movement.
Bernie is a Senator -- Joe will need him to help him pass things/govern.
A joint task force on policy with Sanders is making the calculus they can win without the left? Biden literally said he needs him to win and to govern.
Haha yep, it was mentioned in his very first campaign speech. Come on, people.
Biden calls for $15 minimum wage, public-option health plan in first campaign speech
Former Vice President Joe Biden endorsed a $15-an-hour federal minimum wage and an option for anyone to buy into Medicare in his first 2020 presidential...

Heh, 3rd time. We've been having this fight for over 60 years.
that's not true. Hillary did veer more Leftwards and the 2016 DNC Convention was the Lest-most and Wokest DNC Convention ever
Wonder if all the clowns who thought he wouldn't endorse are feeling humble?
I'd personally prefer Warren in the Senate, but I can't think of any prominent women that are as progressive as Warren that also have a lot of political experience.

It's not banned because it's true. You can tell yourself whatever you want. Not voting for Biden is voting for Trump. There is absolutely no way around it.
Newsflash: Trump will win the ~~~white working class~~~ because they're racist and vote on racial animus. Black and Hispanic working-class people have no problem voting Democratic and for some strange reason don't vote for the GOP.
Biden just has to peel off enough of those voters from Trump, which a lot of polling shows him doing.
lol
Just... lol. You by contrast don't know a damn thing, haven't learned a damn thing, and never will learn a damn thing. Best of luck because the two are clearly more different now than they were before, but expect apathy regardless if this is the finest Liberals have to offer.
Bernie joined up before Warren, surprising.
I really hope this silences the haters, because we can't afford that now. Criticize him once Trump is gone, it's night and day.

Not only is this message self-evidently false, it doesn't answer what I actually said.
I'm not a fan of Biden myself but we need to cut the shit. If Biden doesn't win we have Trump for four more years.
If you don't vote for Biden you are supporting Trump's re-election. It really is that simple.
I'm terribly disappointed in Bernie Sanders for doing this, though I understand why. The ironic thing is that Sanders was criticized as an outsider during the primary, but he's too much of a team player tbqh.
Still not voting for Joe Biden myself. His policy history and rape allegations are disqualifying.

No. I do not support Trump like Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Tom Brady.
And Bernie will be the one that's blamed if Biden loses, despite democrats taking a giant shit all over Bernie's campaign.
It's projecting at its finest.
You're completely bonkers if you think the political landscape now is anything remotely similar to even 2016
Barring a great VP pick, Biden is going to lose to Trump IMO. They're both accused of sexual assault, both aren't great to undocumented immigrants (Trump is far worse of course but bad is still bad on Biden) but Biden picking up more of Bernie's policies (expanding medicare, student loan forgiveness) will help him. If he picked Warren as VP that would help him, but I'd be happy with Castro as well.
Though I think Abrams and Harris are strong contenders for his pick too.

somehow people will still say he dragged his feet when Biden loses in November
Glad to see Bernie learned from 2016 and
1) didn't go scorched earth
2) dropped (relatively) early
3) endorsed quickly
It is a shame he didn't learn about widening his coalition though.

people seem to be under the impression that resetera and rose twitter are singularly representative of sanders voters and non-voters
If your response to someone who doesn't want to vote because the better candidate is a rapist is that they're a Trump voter for thinking that, I need you to explain what makes you okay with that.
The calculus is either that Bernie's voters are electorally irrelevant and shouldn't be listened to, or they could swing the election and their concerns need to be addressed. It can't be both.
If you're gonna insult Bernie supporters and call them Trump voters that's your prerogative. Just something to keep in mind. November's a long way away, plenty of time to build up a winning campaign if you play it smart.

I'm going to vote for Biden (and I voted for Bernie int he primary). I just can't see myself not voting.
But I don't like how some people are dismissing the rape allegations at all. If they are true, eventually, Biden should be held accountable - just as anyone should.
Trying to shame people that are uncomfortable voting for a rapist is pretty shitty.
I'm legitimately curious what certain people would have preferred Bernie do.
I could give a fuck about Brady. My avatar has always been trolly on purpose. I care about the Supreme Court and the rights of my LGBT friends. Bernie stans here have made it abundantly clear that they do not care.
