I still have a soft spot for Bernie and think he might have some of the most underrated political instincts out there...but MAAAAAAN...if you take him at face value he really fucked up the way he suspended his campaign without extracting any concessions at all. The most charitable way to interpret it is that they repeated it enough times he actually internalized the B.S. that he was partially responsible for Trump's 2016 victory.
The old man was useful, but he's not the fighter we need. We need someone who for better or for worse will commit to actually beating Dems. No holds barred, just promise us you'll hurt their party and extract SOMETHING of a win
I think a lot of people are overlooking how much covid factored into him suspending his campaign. Who in good conscience is going to have people go to the polls to vote for you in a already losing battle in a pandemic? The DNC was pretending that covid wasn't even happening whilst the rest of the world was shutting down.
