From a report at the link below:
Former Vice President Joe Biden just finished addressing his supporters in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He didn’t gloat. In fact, as CNN’s Dana Bash noted, he offered many olive branches to the far left of the Democratic Party. Bash also noted the tone: Biden spoke as if Bernie was already out of the race. Is he? Well, we don’t know. Sen. Bernie Sanders (pictured) isn’t going to speak tonight. He’s pulling a Hillary Clinton and not making an address.
Sanders was just outright destroyed all over tonight. He lost Mississippi, Missouri, and Michigan, the latter of which he needed to mount something of a comeback to at least have some claim in staying in this race. Bernie had an upset win over Hillary Clinton in Michigan, winning white working-class voters in the rural areas. Now, those supporters have gone to Trump and this multi-racial, multi-generational grassroots movement that spans coast-to-coast that was supposed to wipe out Trump in 2020 hasn’t netted him any wins since Nevada.
Once again, South Carolina was the state that broke him. Once again, Black Democrats in the south killed the Sanders insurgency. It’s questionable if Bernie hits the 15 percent threshold in Mississippi. It’s also possible he doesn’t clinch 40 percent in Michigan. And now, his lead in California has dropped immensely.
It’s no wonder Bernie is quietly licking his wounds and is not speaking to anyone.
