What happened was an incredibly well orchestrated move by the Democratic establishment - which is to say, Obama. Biden had his first adequate debate, perhaps because he was drugged up. Buttigieg dropped out and endorsed Biden, despite having plenty of money to continue his campaign. Klobuchar dropped out and endorsed Biden, despite having plenty of money to continue her campaign. Bloomberg didn't drop out - his endorsement would have been worthless - but he switched from running ads for himself to running ads attacking Sanders. In a campaign with no earlier negative advertising, those ads were very effective at shaking Sanders supporters up, and at scaring Sanders opponents into turning out.
The globalists win again. Sanders could go negative on Biden but he's too nice - plus small dollar donations just can't hold their own against the multibillionaire now backing Biden's campaign.
