9. He has already said...

...he'd be going back to VT after today to decide next steps. Whatever he decides, the outcomes of today's primaries need to be weighed in. People should listen and believe what the man says. A concession tonight was never in the cards.

Wait and see what the man actually decides, and then applaud, or complain, or whatever.

All the angst about what he should or shouldn't do (or should or shouldn't have done) is tiresome.
