 So the elections tonight were a disaster now before I tell you the results I just want you to take a moment and breathe There's a lot of people across the country and even around the world who are watching these results And they're just as frustrated and disappointed as you feel So as you watch the numbers come in know that you're not alone in feeling hopeless and you know really really Frustrated understand that we're kind of all dealing with this together and hopefully you can take some comfort knowing that Without being said I can't sugarcoat this for you. It was a disaster and it's not over yet But tonight did not go the way we wanted it to go So getting to the results when it comes to the Idaho primary with 42% of precincts reporting Joe Biden is winning 47 to 39 when it comes to Michigan a state where I hoped Bernie Sanders could pull off an upset in the same way that he did back in 2016 Joe Biden is winning with 85% of precincts reporting that may change by the time you see this video But currently he's winning 53 to 38 when it comes to Mississippi Joe Biden is winning 81 to 15 percent with 87 percent of precincts reporting Currently Bernie Sanders is fighting to remain viable in Mississippi when it comes to Missouri Joe Biden is winning 60 to 35 percent with 95 percent of precincts reporting in North Dakota with only 10 percent of precincts reporting Bernie Sanders actually is winning 40 to 26 percent Although I will say this state only has 14 pledge delegates up for grabs So it's not gonna change much in the overall state of the race when it comes to Washington State It is a dead heat with 68 percent of precincts reporting both are at 33 percent Joe Biden trailing Bernie Sanders, but you know, they've been going back and forth all night. So that could change and Overall what I really was hoping for was an upset in Michigan I was hoping for Bernie Sanders to win Washington State handily and then to hopefully knock off another state I don't know, you know a North Dakota, Idaho, but It's not good. It's not good Michigan was really the state that we were eyeing the state that can really turn things around and hopefully shift the narrative Right because that is the state with the largest amount of delegates up for grabs And if there was another upset then that could potentially have made a really big difference But we just we didn't get that and now it's admittedly looking Very very bad and then next week on Tuesday We have I believe four more states going and if we don't pull out a victory It may be over now before we talk more about the implications of Tonight's results. I do want to look to some of the exit polls at least from Michigan because it really shows you what's happening This isn't just an ideological battle This is a generational fight because look at this here Joe Biden is getting support from almost all of the older voters and Bernie Sanders is getting support from almost all of the younger voters But the problem here as you can see is that older voters make up a higher percentage than younger voters You know 18 to 24 year olds only account for 7 percent of voters 25 to 29 year olds only account for 8 percent of voters Meanwhile, you know, Joe Biden's strongest demographic 65 or over accounts for almost a quarter of the entire electorate and he gets 73 percent of them You have 32 percent of overall voters being between ages 50 and 64 So this is generational now What's interesting is that when you look at this exit poll from michigan that was posted by cbs news It asks should the u.s. Economic system be completely overhauled 49 percent said yes, but yet voters still went for biden so Really what I think we're seeing is that Older voters who mostly watch msnbc and cable news they They agree with us When it comes to medicare for all right, we've won the messaging battle But all of this talk about electability has been beaten into their brains And they just don't want to take a risk with Bernie Sanders Even if they feel like maybe he's better Maybe you know young people like them and all the energy is is with Bernie Sanders They just they're opting for joe biden now. I am not going to declare the race over Because here's the thing joe biden is such a weak candidate And the race so far has been so volatile that anything can happen. So if Bernie Sanders has a blowout performance at sunday's debate There's the potential there if voters really see just how weak joe biden is That maybe things can change is that likely no, I don't want to get your hopes up because first of all bernie sanders Let's face it. He's just too nice. He just won't hammer biden in the way that he needs to he's too nice And even if it's the case that bernie sanders has some type of blowout performance and you know biden phase plans The media is still very much in control here Older voters by and large Watch cable news msnbc and cnn And they have a monopoly on the political narrative. So even if it's the case that joe biden fumbles Is it going to change much? I'm not sure and the reason why it doesn't look good It's because when you look at polling for states coming up next week. I believe arizona florida Joe biden is poised to do very very well in those states So our last hope Really is that bernie sanders can have a great debate performance And joe biden can have a really terrible debate performance However, holding on to that hope It may not mean much because the democratic party is already talking about possibly canceling the debate because They're willing to wrap it up They want to wrap it up and they're willing to cancel it just to kind of hide joe biden away until november in fact on npr cliber and said just that I think we will be at a point Where joe biden will be the prohibitive nominee of the party And I think the dnc the democratic national committee should then step in making an assessment And determine whether or not they'll have Any more Debates and if you think that the dnc wouldn't do something like that They absolutely will do anything in their power to protect power They've got all the institutional advantages that we lack and they will use them to make sure that we are thoroughly defeated Every single time and you see individuals going on msnbc like james carville saying hey, let's wrap this puppy up You see andrew yang endorsing joe biden saying look i said i'd support the nominee and it's gonna be biden so i'm falling in line and you know Basically, it's not looking very good now my philosophy is we fight until the very end bernie should stay in until the convention because guess what he has a lot of money and resources We've been donating we've been phone banking and text banking and canvassing for him and we put a lot of time And resources and our own money into this election with that being said it just doesn't look good and at this point in time it seems as if joe biden will very soon emerge as the presumptive nominee which sucks because Just like a week and a half ago. It seemed as if super tuesday could have been the opposite result with bernie sanders emerging But the establishment came out for joe biden all these endorsements helped right it helped um, so what i want us to keep in mind is that bernie sanders built up a movement and it's not just going to go away when this election is over if we do in fact lose which Seems like that's going to be the case not to sugarcoat it not to be too down But i'm just trying to be realistic here um and rather than just remaining hyper focused on electoral politics even though that's important because we need power We also have to make sure that We continue organizing when the election is over right in the way that occupy did bernie sanders took the energy that existed During the occupy movement and he harnessed that into this huge mass movement And you know a lot of people will be talking about who's going to be the new standard bear because i think there's no chance bernie runs again in fact, i don't think he should run again because Running these types of presidential campaigns where you travel you're you're going to different states You know in the same day that's just that's exhausting and bernie has done enough It's on us to make sure that this movement is alive and in a way We've won in the sense that we have Basically convinced everyone in spite of all the propaganda astonishingly that medicare for all is the way to go um, it's just that that propaganda didn't work At least you know not as much as the electability myth did And voters at the end of the day who are older just trusted msnbc and cnn And they're going with the safe bet In their minds, uh, which is joe biden and they're gonna find out in november that that wasn't the safest bet because i think that joe biden will most likely lose to donald trump so if that's you know, that's not the case then um Great i guess that you know donald trump's out and defeated But then we have four years of no change with joe biden four years of stalling on climate change So, you know regardless This is a really bad situation currently and i don't want anyone to get blackpilled I just want you to take some time to realize that This energy that was created by bernie's movement. It needs to be harnessed now. It can't just dissipate, right? um, and look, I don't want to talk as if it's over because again I really believe that bernie should stay in until the convention will he do that? Probably not he didn't stay in until the convention last time he endorsed hillary clinton and what like may or june um, so look we just we keep on going we keep on fighting because we can't afford not to The election results tonight absolutely just we're devastating and i feel genuinely depressed And i'm sure that a lot of you feel the same way but just know that you're not alone We all are kind of grappling with this defeat And we're just gonna keep going Because if we quit then all of the haters are going to be enjoying that But one thing i find interesting is that you're going to slightly see the narrative shift from corporate democrats and msnbc You're seeing individuals like james carville kind of you know Tass at least suggest. Hey, you know bernie sanders coming back us by saying that you know bernie sanders did a lot You see um senators like brian shatts say we need everyone in this fight everyone When just like a couple of weeks ago. They were telling the progressive left to fuck off so um They turned a blind eye to a large portion of the party And they're going to see once again what happens when you run someone who is just not very popular Who is disliked who won't excite the base who doesn't speak to young people? I mean I saw a tweet and i wish i can you know uh reference this person and give them credit but You know the trajectory that joe biden is on He is on pace to do worse than hillary clinton with young people Which is a very very bad sign for november It's a very bad sign So it is what it is. We just keep moving We keep going forward because we have no choice these crises that exist aren't going to correct themselves These people who are marginalized and vulnerable They don't have the voices to fight for themselves So we have to do what we can to empower those people and just keep Keep going. I don't know what else to say
