One way Bernie is hampering Biden's efforts against Trump [View all]

If Bernie were to drop out, Biden will be the presumptive nominee.

Then, every time there is Trump admin pressers, propaganda and any kind of circus, the media would ask Biden's side in order to maintain objectivity. Biden would have a lot of exposure to shoot down wigged orange memes.

By not dropping out, Bernie is tacitly supporting Trump's propaganda machine. Is this by design or just a coincidence?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
