Yes, you are wrong. There are actual quotes from your lord and savior.

Don't be Trumpian. It's disgusting. Bernie flip-flop, and that's what it is, is politically motivated. Strategically it's smart for him to claim it just like Hillary did because he's the front runner.
Where things go afield is when you and other Bernie worshippers here lie or contort to change facts into falsehoods so your exalted one isn't besmirched. Jesus christ dude....be better.

Makes more sense to me to wait and see what actually happens instead of getting worked up over something I read on the internet that may or may not happen.
Sanders is not owed the nomination and he's going to have to prove by more than just a little that he's the best candidate for the general election.
And it's not about supporting you -- it's about discussing how Sanders is better at legislating change than the Democrats you keep complaining about.
Your vision of Sanders is not the reality that others live with regards to his actual record.

I think that's the case with regular people. But some of these folks who pop up in the media, YouTube , etc are straight up phonies who don't belief half of what they say ( Cadance Owens, Anthony Brian Logan, etc). Or they're a little conservative but crank up the pandering for clicks. It just cracks me up when I see comments defending someone like SomeBlackGuy as some sort of "free thinker" when he clearly isn't all that informed on the issues and is just giving hot takes that he knows his audience wants to hear.
Or an unhinged Trump that selects the most non-progressive judges and Supreme Court justices possible.
I found the payment plan on my own but it's still fair to ask how he's going to make it happen.
I'll never say it can't happen, just that the voter should know how he plans to make it happen.

While I didn't really look into if what I came across was "On The Level...", Steven Seagal might have been charged by the SEC with failing to disclose a payment from a "Bitcoin"-sorta outfit for hustling their product.
Michelle Obama petitioned to run as vice-president to stop Bernie Sanders, report says
Anxious party officials float late-entry candidates anticipating brokered convention
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-a9363856.html
"Fearing the selection of Bernie Sanders as the Democrats’ 2020 presidential nominee, a growing number of establishment party officials are reportedly considering Sherrod Brown as a late-entry “white knight” with Michelle Obama as a running mate.
Other potential candidates floated by the party include Kamala Harris, who dropped out of the race in December, as well as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, according to the New York Times’ interview with 93 party officials, all of whom are superdelegates who could determine the party’s nominee should a candidate emerge without a clear majority of delegate votes.
Anxiously waiting for results from Super Tuesday primaries across the US next week, those Democrats are “willing to risk intraparty damage” to stop the progressive candidate’s nomination at the party’s national convention in July, when the party will select the Democratic nominee to face Donald Trump in the general election on 3 November."
WTF, do the Democrats want to lose?

Superbat links to The Independent, but the original story came from The New York Times.
This isn't an rumor. This is what reporters working for the New York Times were told by party officials
Dozens of interviews with Democratic establishment leaders this week show that they are not just worried about Mr. Sanders’s candidacy, but are also willing to risk intraparty damage to stop his nomination at the national convention in July if they get the chance. Since Mr. Sanders’s victory in Nevada’s caucuses on Saturday, The Times has interviewed 93 party officials — all of them superdelegates, who could have a say on the nominee at the convention — and found overwhelming opposition to handing the Vermont senator the nomination if he arrived with the most delegates but fell short of a majority.
Yeah, I corrected my post already to omit 'unsoruced', though I woiuld point out that there are something like 400+ superdelgates in the party, and that these sort of reports are generally inflammatorily designed. The NYT's track record isn't great here. My eyes rolled too preemptively.
It's gossip and speculation, nothing more.
I will point out, however, that if Bernie arrives at the convention with, say, 40% of the delegates, and 60% are out between varied candidates, they're gonna have a big problem on their hands. I honestly do not think it that likely but not imposible.
