(39 posts)9. Sanders needs to drop out even if all are postponed
You have to question his motives in the event that he fails to call it a day, because theres no path to the nomination and an extended period of attack ads and strife would only help Trump. It would be a beautiful thing for Bernie Sanders, knowing he now cannot win, to suspend his campaign and get working with Joe Biden; I guarantee if he did that now hed end up having far more of an influence on the general election platform.
In fairness to DeWine, this is consistent with his closure of bars and restaurants. Regardless of affiliation, I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, even though June 2nd seems like an incredibly long delay. I believe moving to 100% absentee voting would have been a better, more pragmatic move.
