Warren staying in siphoned votes from Bernie as they shared similar demographics despite Bernie being on the winning end. It was so clear that Warren's inclusion sabotaged Bernie that even Trump had to tweet to blame Warren for screwing him over. Warren didn't "stay in," though. She dropped out mere days after most of the others dropped out, and either the day of, or only a day after, Bloomberg dropped out, and Bloomberg took votes from Biden. People like to say Warren "sabotaged" Bernie, but... She didn't. She and Bloomberg both stayed in until Super Tuesday, and then dropped out within two days of it, before any other major primaries took place. EDIT: Super Tuesday was March 3rd. Bloomberg dropped out March 4th, Warren dropped out March 5th. Both dropped out before the next major primary. Thus, this idea that Warren "stayed in" and siphoned votes from Bernie doesn't make sense, since both she and Bloomberg stayed in past Super Tuesday, and while Warren likely took more votes from Bernie than Biden, Bloomberg took more votes from Biden than Bernie. Spoilers: If the basis of your argument is literally Donald Trump, there are problems with your argument. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! ...
