On Apr. 8, Bernie Sanders announced that he was suspending his presidential campaign in a live stream, Sanders stated that he no longer saw himself on the path of winning the democratic nomination.
This move outraged some because it places Biden in an awkward position to win over Sanders’ supporters – a job that will not be easy for him. The presidential race has now become Biden v. Trump, and most fear that Biden is not a strong enough candidate to win, fearing another four years of a Trump presidency.
For this reason, people are encouraging Biden to adopt some of Bernie’s liberal principles to sway some of Sanders’ support his way.
Some have decided that they’re voting blue, regardless of who wins the Democratic nomination, to curb another Trump presidency.
But, people are outraged. And they have every right to be. To some, Bernie was the last source of hope that they were holding onto, the one they believed could save us from another four years of Trump.
We’re in a very turbulent time, and nothing is sure.
It will be interesting to see what November holds for this country, especially is we’re still in the middle of a pandemic.
