Quote for the Day:

Trump can win by keeping Democrats from uniting. Parties typically lick their primary wounds and unite for the general election once the standard-bearer is chosen. The GOP did, to the astonishment of many, in 2016 after a particularly vicious run-up to the convention, and they united behind the person who had attacked the other candidates the most! So, Bernie Sanders’s passionate supporters could join Biden’s campaign in the fall and work for their joint interests, despite their honest differences on many matters. Sanders has said many times that above all else, Trump must be defeated. But Trump’s reelection team, having learned in the 2016 campaign that some of Bernie’s supporters only support Bernie, will do everything possible to keep them from voting for Biden in November.
