Yikes. (and no, he can't do that. Abe Lincoln "freed" the slaves with the emancipation proclamation; FDR locked up Japanese-Americans. But even those executive orders didn't overturn state and federal laws and declare them null and void by Presidential fiat. It just doesn't work that way.)This is not how criminal law works. https://t.co/Eos51EhbCV— Carissa Byrne Hessick (@CBHessick) March 2, 2020
And, you know, Trump kind of recognizes that:
Democrats are working hard to destroy the name and reputation of Crazy Bernie Sanders, and take the nomination away from him!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 1, 2020
Pete Buttigieg is OUT. All of his SuperTuesday votes will go to Sleepy Joe Biden. Great timing. This is the REAL beginning of the Dems taking Bernie out of play - NO NOMINATION, AGAIN!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 1, 2020
They are staging a coup against Bernie!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 2, 2020
Of course he always has to carry it too far. You can't stage a coup against someone who's not in charge, but that nuance will be lost on Bernie Bros. Easier to sell them on the idea that the Democratic establishment (in South Carolina?) is trying to take the nomination away from their saint. As for Buttigieg dropping out, that should clear the way for Bernie to win, and if it doesn't, well....
OTOH, Trump's effort to get GOP voters to vote for Bernie in South Carolina completely fizzled (called it!), so any impact he has on Bernie Bros just proves they were never really Democrats in the first place. Or that serious about defeating Trump. And if they agree with Trump on this well, who needs them? Or their candidate, for that matter.
