Why Is The Establishment Smearing Bernie Sanders More Than Ever?

6. Lie

of the week. "English only" a while back. All Sanders fans are sexist ("Berniebros", this election cycle's "Obama's boys&quot . Did any of you apologize for those lies? No worries. So, this lie has been repeated on this site by lots of posters, politicians, and the DNC chair. Net result for this monumentally bad decision? Two, three delegates? Bravo!

2. He's doing it to himself

People show who they are when they're backed to the ropes.

8. What exactly has Bernie done?

[morningfog]

5. They want him to drop before June 7.

That will be Hillary's clinch the nomination night and she is going to lose 3-4 of the 5 states.

Bad optics.

7. I actually think she could lose potentially all the state on June 7th except New Mexico...

California allows undeclared to vote, and New Jersey allows undeclared/independents to register as Democrat when they go to the polling place. And Montana, South Dakota, North Dakota are assured victories for Bernie.

New Mexico is the wildcard since it is a closed primary. But Bernie won his first closed primary in Oregon and came very close to winning another in Kentucky (a state Clinton decimated Obama in 2008 with) so it isn't impossible.

(Also there are 6 states voting on June 7th. Imagine if she lost all 6; that would be terrible optics)

11. Six states vote on June 7. Bernie will win MT, ND and SD. Hillary will win CA, NJ and NM.

9. Because he has gotten way bigger then they ever could have imagined.

And they are scrambling to do whatever they think will stop what is happening and going to happen at the convention.

But smearing him on every tv show is most likely just stoking the fire for the anti establishment people which probably make up 75% of his following.

I also think they are starting to realize they have lost about 25% of his followers to the point of no return and they think by smearing him, they will salvage the other 75%.

13. That would be a pretty bizarre strategy

"We'll smear your candidate, but you will learn to love us".

12. Because HRC's Poll Numbers in the GE continue deteriorating & they're in all out panic mode
