Germany has socialized medici- never mind
Can a Bernie bro explain how at this moment a case for government run healthcare is being made?
Please explain how single payer systems around the world are shytting on our system at this moment?
I dont think this pandemic isnt the talking point B-bros think it is... at least not yet.

I can't even..........
There aren't words to describe how disgusted I am with the anti-Bernie brigade in the Dem establishment. They bent over backwards for the two absolute worst possible candidates in Biden and Bloomberg.

What's good fam, I've been having a hell of an adjustment to this working from home ish. So I haven't been as present the past week, but I've been paying attention to the goings on. Yall know I keep Bernie and leftist ideas as a big part of my squad's podcast. This past week we tested our phone line out for the first time (we can take phone calls for interviews now which is hype) and did a Coronavirus focused episode...which meant we got plenty of references to Bernie and strategies moving forward in there. Here's time stamps, gimme a look fam, lemme know if there are topics you'd like to see discussed at all or maybe I can set up interviews if yall have news or an interesting take to drop at this point.
...leftist convo's and time stamps bolded.Intro and day to day – 0:00 (just our personal experiences the past couple weeks)
Sports Cancellations – 8:00 (everything is cancelled, seeing VC's last jumper and the UFC's cursed fight)
Economic Impacts and Relief Efforts – 14:00 (I shout out YangGang here; we talk about using the Defense Production Act to produce the needed inventory for our healthcare workers and how it's quite Bernie-centric; and I go off for a second on making sure they don't half ass the stimulus...but they wound up half-assing it unfortunately)
20:00 – Favorite Pandemic Movies (Lightening the mood with some pop culture)
25:00 – Art imitates life (After I describe how Contagion was written with input from infectious disease experts, we pivot to how popular media predicted these circumstances with the help of science...it’s not proof of some conspiracy)
29:00 – Let Me Remind (Quick hitter topics - Quarantine Congresspeople, City Meals on Wheels, Taiwan donates hospital masks)
32:30 – Treehouse Mojitos (While we're stuck in isolation, we've been dreaming of a vacation. J Boom talks about a Treehouse option that stood out)
34:30 – Wielding Influence; Bernie raises millions for coronavirus (We talk about the tangible success of Bernie raising millions for coronavirus related groups via his donor list. Keeping the infrastructure the left has built going and using it to pull the Democratic Party left even if Bernie drops out of the race. What policies can we push Biden for if that happens?)
39:00 - Outta Line (We call out some people: Biden MIA for too long in a crisis, Rabbi blames Gay Pride Parade for Coronavirus, Congress members who committed insider trading instead of informing the public about Coronavirus)
45:00 – MDC (impromptu and sloppy but we recast some movies and pick new directors to make them)
49:00 – Last comments (we normally go an hour so we took the extra time for some closing comments).

Not mad at this at all.
The pandemic has completely upended everything in America so staying in the race or dropping out at this point won't measure much reaction. And the argument Bernie haters will use that says Bernie staying in the race will only damage Biden's chances against Trump won't hold much weight when it becomes more and more evident that Biden himself staying in the race is what's really hurting his chances against Trump.
I wonder what the results would have looked like if Super Tuesday occurred after the pandemic/business closures and not before. How many peoples minds would have been changed with Bernie organizing charitable donations and being front and center in the Senate negotiations vs "electable" Joe being pitied in interviews on live tv by hosts catching second-hand embarrassment at his responses.
In all likelihood not enough to change the results as they currently stand, but I'm sure more than a few Biden voters would have given it some pause before voting.
