As Twitchy told you earlier, Bernie Sanders has caved to the same Democratic establishment that kept him down and officially endorsed Joe Biden for president.
Naturally, even Bernie’s most ardent supporters are struggling to process this shocking(ly predictable) development. Shaun King, for example, is utterly beside himself.
But while it’s one thing for a Bernie Sanders surrogate to be upset, it’s another thing for a member of his staff to confront what’s happened.
His campaign’s former national press secretary Briahna Joy Gray just can’t get on the Biden Train with Bernie:
With the utmost respect for Bernie Sanders, who is an incredible human being & a genuine inspiration, I don't endorse Joe Biden.
I supported Bernie Sanders because he backed ideas like #MedicareForAll, cancelling ALL student debt, & a wealth tax. Biden supports none of those.

You hate to see it.
As expected, Bernie Sanders' most loyal supporters are refusing to support Biden for President. Here's his Press Secretary: https://t.co/ON0Z3VRWsM

So awkward.
Can you blame them? It doesn't feel good to be used. Especially twice in a row.

Bernie Sanders’ supporters are gluttons for punishment. In so many ways.
But maybe all is not lost for Joe Biden … there might be a way yet for him to win the hearts and minds of the Bernie Bros:
I look forward to seeing what these task forces come up with: The support of a multitude of progressives hinges on Biden making meaningful concessions to the left — not just lip service — not merely symbolic overtures. https://t.co/coVsKMPAcM

On the livestream today, Biden said he thinks it's ridiculous that we don't treat healthcare as a human right. If that's true, I look forward to him embracing #MedicareForAll.

You do that, Briahna. You go and do that.
Just one question: Will that wash away the allegations of sexual assault you boasted of knowing about and refused to bring up?
