4. So "narrow" that Jeff Weaver advised BS to Drop out..

Apr 2020

Beyond Shakir and Jayapal, longtime strategist Jeff Weaver has privately made a case that exiting the race more quickly and on good terms with Biden would give Sanders more leverage in the long run, according to one of the people; the other said Weaver has used a light touch in presenting his case. Weaver and Jayapal did not return calls and messages seeking comment. Shakir declined to comment.

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