21. What happens on DU is irrelevant to what Bernie does.

It will have zero impact. It certainly isn't stopping him from fading into obscurity. It doesn't have any effect whatsoever.

There's nothing wrong with criticizing his campaign for, just in the past month or so, claiming Biden has dementia via a doctored video being pushed by the Trump team, claiming that he's "disappeared", and pushing a shaky rape story from a Putin/Sanders surrogate that not even Fox News will touch.

Frankly, I'm more concerned that some seem to have no problem with any of the false claims and just summarily brush them off. Though, that's par for the course for the past five years.

Edit: clarification

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