After failing to win a single primary during Tuesday night's Democrat contests in Florida, Illinois and Arizona, communist sympathizer and socialist Bernie Sanders is reevaluating his campaign.
"The next primary contest is at least three weeks away. Sen. Sanders is going to be having conversations with supporters to assess his campaign," Sanders campaign manager Faiz Shakir released in a statement Wednesday morning. "In the immediate term, however, he is focused on the government response to the coronavirus outbreak and ensuring that we take care of working people and the most vulnerable."
In Florida, Sanders got completely trounced. Biden's delegate lead is insurmountable.
Sanders would now need to win 62% of the remaining delegates to win the nomination.

President Trump has weighed in on the development.
The DNC will have gotten their fondest wish and defeated Bernie Sanders, far ahead of schedule. Now they are doing everything possible to be nice to him in order to keep his supporters. Bernie has given up, just like he did last time. He will be dropping out soon! MAGA/KAG
