Why would he close the door? He can grift money and attention from supporters in the meantime, feed his ego, and keep open a chance in case Biden/Harris goes down in flames and the party can't support either of them (increasingly unlikely).

Bernie running continues to be the worst thing for the left.

We need someone less stupidly polarizing on the left. Everytime that dude runs for anything a small subgroup of leftists work very hard to make it seem like any of his opponents are pure evil.

I would much rather he gave up on the presidency and focused on the younger politicians that could be more positive leaders. We can't continue to have these elderly people running the country.

I agree but given the rules we have in place now, he is still our country's best realistic chance at saving itself followed by AOC. You can't disqualify his following.

More like the primary rules keep changing because the DNC doesn't want him to win?

If you think republicans gerrymandering and voter suppression was a thing, wait until you hear about the establishment dems.

He has great policies but should be using his influence to continue to push for progressive reform from within (like how he changed the party platform in 2016) and should be building up more progressive candidates like AOC.

But AOC doesn't want to run, so we need someone else. Someone young, preferably. Pro-worker, anti-war, and climate conscious.

I'm sure he doesn't expect to win, but just being involved and bringing up his points means his opponents have to talk about them too.

Great choice but if she becomes governor I think she would be better off holding the Georgia GOP at bay.

Same if Mandela Barnes beats Ron Johnson in WI this midterm.

The DNC did fuck him over in 2016.

But I see nothing to suggest he was ever going to win even if they hadnt. I guess its a well never know scenario, but I think I know. Im sure some minor things can be pointed to in 2020 but I wouldnt consider it remotely the same.

Well no, Bernie wasn't going to win in 2016 even if the DNC didn't peddle bad press about him. He lost by a significant margin.

In 2020 he mainly lost because party leaders united their endorsements behind the runner-up (Biden) while Bernie was in the lead, but while scummy it wasn't against the rules.

Yes, it is logical that the elite establishment would put their own interests over the people's, the people who collectively decided Bernie was their candidate.

Bernie, I love you, but please don't run unless biden dies and Trump is in jail, alright?

The last thing we need during such an important fucking race is for Trump to win because of some idiot with a heart of gold splitting votes in the democratic party, or even giving people the slightest amount of doubt over the democratic nomination winning, turning away any possible voters/votes from people who don't believe he could win.
