Sanders is remaining in the race for now, and explained that he’s winning in every way not counting electability:
SANDERS: While our campaign is winning the idealogical debate, we are losing the debate on electability

Sanders: “We are losing the debate over electability.”
Says at the next debate, he’ll press Biden on health care and whether he’d veto a M4A bill if passed in Congress.

It almost sounds like Sanders has decided to remain in the race at least long enough to try and Bern down the DNC.
Well yes, being surrounded by anti-semites and praising mass-murdering dictators will have that effect. https://t.co/O6LcAHsIyf

What Bernie lacks in delegates, he more than makes up for in likes and RTs. https://t.co/ru8SbJwEzz

A moral victory in Sanders’ eyes.
