( CNN ) In the last 24 hours , the following things have happened in the Democratic presidential race :
1) Former South Bend, Indiana , Mayor Pete Buttigieg ended his campaign and he’s endorsing former Vice President Joe Biden in a Texas rally tonight.
.
2) Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar decided to drop from the race and endorse Biden. She’ll also be at that Biden Texas rally.
.
3) Former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid ( Nevada ) announced his endorsement of Biden , citing the former vice president’s ability to ” assemble the largest , most diverse coalition possible to defeat Trump and lead our country following the trauma of Trump’s presidency.”
.
4) Illinois Sen. Tammy Duckworth , as well as a slew of other House members , former senators and former governors who represent states set to vote either on Tuesday or later this month , endorsed Biden.
.
This is what it looks like when the party establishment , deeply concerned about the prospect of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders as the Democratic nominee against President Donald Trump , starts putting the necessary pieces in place to try to keep the Vermont democratic socialist from winning.
.
How large are their concerns ? Within 72 hours of Biden winning his first state in the nomination fight — a larger-than-expected victory in South Carolina — the entire field of pragmatic / moderate / establishment types have left the race , with the exception of free-spending billionaire Mike Bloomberg.
.
And you can bet that if Bloomberg doesn’t wind up with more delegates than Biden after tomorrow , the former New York City mayor will come under huge pressure to put his ego aside and get behind Biden too.
.
( Now that doesn’t mean that Trump’s Twitter claims implying that Democrats are trying to ” take it away ” from Sanders are accurate. There is nothing nefarious about endorsements and drop-outs , this is just Politics 101 ).
.
Nothing nefarious ?!!! … This ‘ reporter ‘ from CNN ( of course ! ) just got thru with pointing out the details of the deeply embedded ‘ establishment ‘ withing the Democratic ( Now that’s an oxy-moron !!! ) party …
.
Two contenders , one that was leading , and another that both of course , quickly endorse the man they have repeatedly campaigned against … Their senate leader , after all this time , comes out finally ( within the same 24 hour period ) and decides to endorse Gropey Joe … Tammy ‘ Never Heard of Her ‘ Duckworth endorses him ! … Ah … She’s from Obama country !! …
.
Which reminds me , … Barry has kept his mouth shut all this time … Does the establishment now get on the phone and call in its’ favour to Barry ? …
.
Then … In the next stanza … This moron points out hims that the above is what it looks like ” when the party establishment … stats putting in the necessary pieces in place to keep the Vermont socialist from winning “…
.
Now everyone has to understand , Bernie sits as an independent … He’s not a ‘ Democrap ‘ … But twice now he’s attempted to take leadership of the party …
.
Then he goes on to say that ” they’ll pressure Bloomnuts to endorse … Biden …
.
BUT NO !!! … Their’s nothing nefarious about it !!! …
.
Now since we all should know now that 99 % of the MSM is full o’ shit , never mid this asshole … Just ask Bernie ( Like THEY did !!! ) …
.
Asked about the movement on Monday , Sanders told reporters , ” Look , it is no secret … that there is a massive effort trying to stop Bernie Sanders , that’s not a secret to anybody in this room … The corporate establishment is coming together. The political establishment is coming together and they will do everything. They are really getting nervous that working people are standing up.”
.
Still , it’s not at all clear to me that the Democratic establishment can actually stop Sanders.
.
For all you people out there that still don’t get it …You and I don’t get to vote on the ‘ establishment ‘ … The ‘establishment ‘ is huge portion of the sludge and muck on the floor of the swamp that DJT is trying to drain …
