Well first off, that is far from the truth. He has never nor does he now “trounce” Trump in every poll. I read the polls every single day both on the polling accounts on Twitter and at Real Clear politics and Biden has consistently beaten Trump by wider margins. Biden has the black southern vote, which Bernie does not. At least not now. The polls for Bernie right now look pretty good, I’ll grant you that. Where the Russians are involved is by boosting Bernie in Facebook groups and on social media, which does help boost his popularity over all. But Bernie’s anger is, I think, connecting too with a lot of people who feel MAD about Trump but helpless to do anything about him. I would argue that once Bernie secures the nomination you will start to see the polls shift in Trump’s favor. I think we lose Florida, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania. Can we still win without those? No. But I also think we can’t win with or without Bernie Sanders. If you want to get rid of Trump — this is the worst way to do it. No one on Team Bernie is factoring in how badly the billion dollar attack machine Trump is about to employ. Bernie won’t accept any funds to combat it. So.
