and he has thrown in officially as one of Sanders' "goons." And Sanders, a populist rabblerouser himself but unable to speak "Rogan" in public for himself, needs all of them he can get.

Bless his heart, Sanders has so far drawn far fewer of Trump's populists than he'd hoped. That "wave of popular support" he counts on to sweep Democrats out of his way, both as a path to the WH and then to steamroll congress as president, is tightly rallied around Trump in his time of trouble.

Of course, with pandemic disruptions fueling dreams of societal collapse and takeover, the rabble hasn't given in to despair, and their sites are still full of bloviation about marching over all who don't get out of their way.

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