Caution: MSNBC galaxy brain at work. . .
Here’s the latest from Howard Fineman:
.@BernieSanders is trying to put @ewarren and @amyklobuchar campaigns out of their misery by beating them on #SuperTuesday in their respective home states of #Mass. and #Minn. Mistake. He should be focusing on bigger hauls in bigger states, not trying to humiliate female rivals.

Yes, Howard. Bernie is sexist for trying to win states. That’s totally how this is all supposed to work:
Campaigning for an election is now misogyny. Everyone please adjust your political careers accordingly. https://t.co/XVsSIXr3sA

He can’t win:
Campaigning to win elections is now sexist if you’re @BernieSanders https://t.co/6wZY6czBTE

Does Howard Fineman know how insulting this really is to Sens. Warren and Klobuchar?
“I’d just like to inform everyone that Bernie Sanders is a misogynist because he’s running for president against two women.” https://t.co/BO5t5qXgEr

We assume Bernie isn’t dumb enough to fall for this as every delegate will matter:
Unbelievable to me that @BernieSanders–who the Democratic Party establishment told @nytimes they plan on blocking at @dnc convention–trying to win as many delegates as possible (205 between Massachusetts & Minnesota) is now….sexist. https://t.co/dZpCkPo6Ur

MSNBC really is knocking it out of the park with their Bernie punditry this year:
Besides absurdity of expecting a candidate not to complete in a competitive race (that has proportional rules, btw), this is also strategically weird after Obama won in 2008 partly bc he didn't get distracted by just "big states" & he built huge delegate leads in small states. https://t.co/uIHUXn3fQw

Bernie really isn’t doing anything wrong, but we all know that:
He should be playing to win — and knocking out Warren of the race and winning the lion's share of Minnesota's delegates is a really smart way to do that. https://t.co/Z4j907nt9D

It’s happening:
#NotAMistake. Bernie is gonna win the big states and the small states. Pass it on… #Bernie2020 https://t.co/as0N3x3Tvw
