So Hillary is badmouthing Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren says he's a liar and believes a woman can't win the presidency. I think this is backfiring on them. Bernie shot way up in the last poll -- he led Biden by 3 points:

And don't think Sanders can't win. He probably would have beat Trump if he'd been the candidate in 2016. He was leading Trump by 10 points in the polls:

Clinton was only leading Trump by 3.2%, and she won the popular vote by 2.1%.
There are a lot of people who supported Sanders in the Primary in 2016, and then crossed over and voted for Trump in the general election. I believe Chung Tran was one of them. Sanders popularity is reflected among some Trump supporters too, although they won't be voting for Bernie as long as Trump is the opponent. Gnadfly and Jackie S both said they may cross over and vote for Sanders in the Democratic Primary this year, although I'm not sure whether they actually like Sanders or whether they believe Trump would have an easier time beating him than Clinton:
I'm crossing over and voting for Bernie in the Texas Primary. My dead father and mother may also.

Sanders is my worst nightmare.
