SELF-AWARENESS FAIL: Hillary superfan Peter Daou thinks it's Clinton supporters who have moved on

Admittedly it’s still very early to be making predictions about 2020, but the first Granite State poll conducted by the University of New Hampshire last October put Bernie Sanders on top of the Democratic pile for 2020 at 31 percent, followed by Joe Biden at 24 percent and Elizabeth Warren at only 13 percent.

And as we’re usually quick to point out, Sanders isn’t even a Democrat.

Things might have to change, though. On Friday, the Democratic National Committee’s rules and bylaws panel adopted a new rule that any person who runs for the party’s presidential nomination must fully commit to the party.

Tweeter @AsperGirl framed it this way:

DNC Rule Change Friday Stuns Sanders Supporters

The DNC's moved on a rule that party nominees for President be Democrats. Anti-Democrat Berners attack the party, refuse to support Dem candidates & refuse donations while helping themselves to our resourceshttps://t.co/XPN87QFDWa

Hillary Clinton superfan Peter Daou reacted to that tweet with the least self-awareness we’ve ever seen:

Does anyone else get the sense that @HillaryClinton and her supporters have moved into the future and that Bernie Sanders and a few of his diehards are stuck fighting a primary he lost two years ago? https://t.co/tXuTYWgAoq
