It still blows my mind how people like TYT underestimated Biden. People on the far left are so far past reality that they couldn't wrap their minds around the fact that nobody liked Bernie. The average Democratic voter didn't want socialism, and so they were never gonna vote for him. They also completely underestimated Biden and how much people like him.

If the Democrats give Biden the nomination, might as well just give Trump his congratulations phone call.

So the DNC are saying that Joe is “unstoppable” after winning just one primary ? Sanders just won 3 and yet they try so hard to downplay it as possible. It makes me wanna change to independent.

I’m here in S.C., I’m embarrassed, sorry everyone

Health care??? Biden does not offer anything new, it's the same we have now. Only Bernie offers a huge change.

[srgreeniii]

If Biden if nominated he will hand Trump a second term.

What’s going on with South Carolina? Have they all lost their minds? Four more years of Trump?

I'm from the south and I must say we make good food, but crap political decisions.

Status Quo Joe has won ): Extremely disappointing. Hoping the gap closes once all the votes are counted. Tom Steyer has dropped out, hoping his supporters will consider Sanders.

[sirius]

How the hell did he go from never winning a single primary contest, despite running 4 times, losing the first 3 contests badly while Bernie pulled off a historic clean sweep of the first 3 states, and the polls showing him on a negative trajectory and Bernie closing the gap, to not only winning, but winning by a more commanding margin than even Bernie's impressive Nevada win, with a near if not actual majority of the votes??? Does Clyburn really have this much power in South Carolina??

[zanbrocal]

I'm absolutely crushed by my people, especially older black people who decided to vote for someone who lied to them about his involvement in civil rights, his "Nelson Mandela arrest", him writing the 94 Crime bill.

[erichitsthewoods]

Wow after 30 years of running for president he gets a state.

[janefreeman]

I guess I'll cross SC off the list of places to move. 🤗

[mnl]

Boomers: We just won SC!
COVID-19: Hold my beer...

[RudeGuerilla]

Holy shit how many confused elderly are there in SC

[gagaplex]

Not a shock. But what's annoying is that the media are already using this to argue Biden won the primaries, period.

[dianefarley]

Another railroad job? Clearly not the best candidate out there.

Apparently no one in South Carolina has internet access.
