Super Tuesday lived up to the hype with Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders battling all night. Michael Bloomberg and Elizabeth Warren face tough path ahead.
President Donald Trump weighed in on the Democratic primary results last night during an unscheduled appearance at Vice President Mike Pence's White House meeting with airline executives to discuss coronavirus.
“Sometimes you don’t have what it takes," Trump said of Bloomberg."I said to him, It’s not that easy doing what I did.” Story continues“It sounds as though Bloomberg really is going to follow through on his pledge to spend a billion dollars or more on behalf of the eventual Democratic nominee,” Sabato said. “Without that, I don’t think Democrats would have a prayer of even coming close to what the Republicans are going to spend.”
"The followers of one candidate cannot be moved en masse to another, even with candidate A endorsing candidate B," he said."I would agree that most of Bloomberg’s supporters would end up voting for Biden, but by no means will it be unanimous."

Granholm's remarks, along with the fact that Biden mentioned the auto industry briefly in remarks on Tuesday night, makes it certain that he plans to campaign hard on the topic as he tries to beat U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont in Michigan.
"The Democrat establishment came together and crushed Bernie Sanders, AGAIN!" Trump tweeted early Wednesday after a series of primaries generated more convention delegates for Joe Biden. He also said Warren helped Biden win Massachusetts, saying"the fact that Elizabeth Warren stayed in the race was devastating to Bernie and allowed Sleepy Joe to unthinkably win Massachusetts. It was a perfect storm, with many good states remaining for Joe!"Trump slams Sessions, who faces Alabama run-offPresident Donald Trump suggested Wednesday he will back Jeff Sessions' opponent Tommy Tuberville in the Alabama Republican primary for Senate.
The run-off will happen later this month. The winner will face Democratic Sen. Doug Jones in the November general election. The Justice Department itself initially investigated the Russia allegations, but officials decided to appoint a special counsel after Trump fired then-FBI Director James Comey in May of 2017.
“I think President Trump just ended the Alabama Senate contest with his tweet," said Jason Miller, who was senior communications adviser for Trump's campaign in 2016."Whether or not there’s a formal endorsement is secondary at this point.
