After the 2016 election, the only difference is that they've been joined by newies who think that behavior is okay. I didn't support Bernie in this primary, I was in the Warren camp and I'm fine with Joe, I've always liked him and he will make a good POTUS if we can get him in there. But I don't think we need the ugliness and negativity.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
