Democrats were in for a surprise shake-up this week as 14 states and territories cast their votes for Presidential nominees. Just over a week ago, seven of the Democrat candidates lined up on the debate stage in South Carolina to defend their ambition to become the next President of the United States. Little did we know that shortly after, 4 candidates would drop out, and most would endorse Joe Biden.
Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigeig announced their departure only one day before Super Tuesday. In a twist of events, they both threw their support behind Biden which gave him the leverage needed over Bernie Sanders. Biden now has 513 delegates, a 52-delegate advantage over Sanders, toward the 1,991 goal to become the Democrat nominee.
Shortly after the results were called this week, Mike Bloomberg decided to close-up-shop and endorse Biden as well. While Tom Steyer quietly dropped out previously, he has not endorsed a candidate. This leaves Elizabeth Warren and Tulsi Gabbard in the race with the two front-runners, and their outcomes have been pretty bleak. Warren’s campaign staff has stated that she is “talking to her team to assess the path forward,” and Sanders echoed that sentiment after speaking with her. Although their relationship has been rocky, Sanders is poised to take an endorsement from her.
The timely coordination of Biden’s endorsements is reminiscent of the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) efforts to push Sanders out of the 2016 race. Former DNC Chairwoman Donna Brazile leaked debate questions to Hillary Clinton to give her an extra advantage over Sanders. This week, when Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel brought up a similar effort happening again, Brazile became unhinged telling McDaniel to “go to hell!” This type of outburst only shows that Democrats are under extreme pressure and are willing to get nasty when called out on their shenanigans.
Just a reminder, all of the Democrat candidates are for taxpayer-funded abortions, government-run healthcare, and open borders. They openly talk about taking guns away from the American people. Just like House Democrats have attempted to destroy President Trump’s progress, a Democrat in the White House would have power to reverse the gains that America has made.
