So here's what I think the strategy: 1. Rich people run the democratic party and media 2. Rich people don't want to pay more taxes 3. Bernie will make them pay more taxes 4. Democratic party/media will support anyone who they trust to not jack up taxes.
we'll see
pretty sure both the party and the media are owned by big money interests (it makes sense) so it will likely at least be attempted
rich people ain't trying to pay more taxes!
5. They see Bernie as the biggest threat to #4. He was last time and it was rigged to doom him. That said, IMO, Bernie laid down like a coward. 6. So they'll support Warren (who they have in their pocket - she endorse Hillary last time!) or Biden or others similar.

7. They will also support Yang now because they think he splits the Bernie support and has no realistic chance of winning. It's the same thing they did with Trump in 2016 but it backfired and Trump actually won.

8. Biden 27, Sanders 20, Warren 19, Buttigieg 7, Bloomberg 5, Yang 3, Klobuchar 3, Steyer 1, Gabbard 2, Booker 2, Bennet 0 (current national polls). When this shakes out to two candidates you get: Conventional: 27 + 7 + 5 + 3 + 2 = 44 Communist
: 20 + 19 + 3 + 1 + 2 = 45 - 3 more replies
