Marianne Williamson's ongoing presence in the primary, in Bernie Sanders's campaign, on the national stage is a problem and it's one that appears to be growing, not shrinking. https://twitter.com/ParkerMolloy/status/1235073459358580738 …

It's not good for Bernie because you're not winning over voters outside the base by acting like normal stuff like endorsements and running an opposing campaign and voting is nefarious dirty tricks they invented to stop him.

And it's not good for the Democratic Party and it's not good for the country. I mean, she's repeating Trump's favorite talking points. I think it's slightly more likely than not that Trump references her deleted tweet to say even wacky Marianne can see it, or something.

Bright spot in this is that she deleted it, which makes me hopeful that someone in the campaign saw it, recognized the problem, and laid down the law. But I don't think her light can be contained for long.

And it's not just going to be Trumpian conspiracy theories. She's... dangerous fringe. I don't mean radical left. I mean dangerous fringe. You do not want Bernie's campaign associated with her ideas. We do not want a Democratic nominee associated with her ideas.

And in fairness to the Bernie campaign I don't think he can really afford the distraction of getting into a spat with her if she feels like he's become "negative". So I understand if she's not shut down or disavowed completely. But, yeah, she's a problem.

Also, a lot of people asked me why I said I was relieved she hadn't endorsed my candidate. This is why.
