See The Proof: Activists Now Prefer Harris, Warren Over Biden | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC

POLITICO's Maggie Severns crunched all the online donations from grassroots Democrats. The evidence reveals democratic activists are flocking to Kamala Harris, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders and cooling on Joe Biden. Severns reports small donations are important because democratic grassroots donors have managed to be ‘a bellwether for which candidates are going to surge.’

    1. Dont feel too bad, They didn’t even mention Yang and he’s raised 3Mil in a month. 66% from donations less than $200. But that doesn’t count right? WTF

    2. So you admit Trump was right about fake news? Looks like a lot of sad democrats will have to get a job lol no free money

  1. lovely how they left the name of the top small dollar fundraiser’s name out of the title… it just so-happens it’s bernie. honest mistake, i’m sure…

    1. Can’t say how happy I am to see the comment section… very unusual to find a good comment section.
      Also your comment is ON POINT.
      Couldn’t have said it better.

    2. Corporate media & dnc have spoken, who cares what the people want? We need bigger government to control.. er support for the people. Bernie can get another lake house out of this however.

      Feel like 2016 election all over again?

    3. @RS H $30M from the NRA is totally small donor… not to mention democrats are fundraising in a primary…

    4. RS H – There is virtually one Republican candidate for grassroots donations with no challenger of significance from his own party.

  2. ”small donations” is called normal donations in other developed countries. “big donations” is called bribery outside the US, and it’s a CRIME

    1. We should follow the examples of other more successful democracies…Election cycles should be no longer than 6 weeks, and all funds for campaigning should be capped at a maximum and should come from the government, not individual donors. End citizens united, aka legal bribery, NOW.

    2. Im still waiting for any of these candidates to give low to mid income families (like mine) a reason to vote for them.

  3. Sanders not in headline on purpose. They are trying to manufacture consent of people who are not looking in depth into the primary race. They are pushing anyone not Sanders, they grudging have to acknowledge in the segment, but leave it off the headline

    1. Dont feel too bad. They didn’t even mention Yang and he’s raised 3Mil in a month. 66% from donations less than $200. But that doesn’t count right? WTF

    2. @Michael H the funny or unbelievable thing is corporate hacks REALLY prefer drumpft over bernie. they are more “ok” with 4 more years of this charade, than bernie. enjoy…

    3. Jared Wagner, Bernie is at 99-100% small donors.

      So, yeah. In that rare air, Yang couldn’t breath.

  4. More bias coverage against Bernie Sanders. Sanders leads all other candidates in grassroots donations and his name is not even in the title of this video. MSNBC is not real journalism.

    1. @Wendy Pastore Kind of hard to do when he’s leading in individual donors, small money totals and widest range of national support.

      Come to think of it, I’m not sure why they bothered including him at all, he’s clearly the least electable.

      Feeling it now corporate Dems?

      Bernie 2020

    1. Im still waiting for any of these candidates to give low to mid income families (like mine) a reason to vote for them.

  5. MSNBC working hard at trying to top their 2015/2016 propaganda pushing who the DNC wants to win. Anything BUT the facts, ma’am.

    1. @ladianamc you want to talk about agendas when you support Democrat clowns that are clueless LOSERs and will not make anything great but the amount of jobs lost the second ANY democrats attempts to pull their cash grab HOAX the green New deal for fake man made climate change, the stocks will crash and you will still be down in your mommys basmemt where you have lived your entire life and you will be asking her why your elementary school custodian job still hasn’t raised the minimum wage to 15$ for you 😂😂

    2. @ladianamc This is not the first time America wanted to buy Greenland…it was tried 3 times going back to the late 1800s.

      Also, Denmark states Greenland is autonomous yet still makes sure they speak for them…

      What Trump said is true. Greenland costs Denmark more money that they can afford and it is a place that is more strategic for America and does nothing to benefit Denmark. It makes sense for both nations to sell to America, far more now than in the past.

    3. @Richard Depaola jr Well, this is clearly debunked now. It was a joke of an idea, never on the agenda for the planned US visit to Denmark (now cancelled). Of course, this is only making people around the world laugh and ponder what is wrong with Trump. Who would be idiotic enough to make such a plan without doing a tiny bit of fact checking first – or consult with Denmark and Greenland. Sorry, I feel really sorry for anybody that could take this seriously. Clearly, it makes zero sense to Denmark or Greenland (that should be abundantly clear now). I guess Trump got punked by somebody.

  6. MSNBC cannot even disguise their hate for Bernie as evident by the clip title which mentions Harris, Warren and Biden but not Sanders who they acknowledge is getting the most grassroots support and individual small donations.

    1. EAGLE SHIELD, well, since I support Anti-Fa, I should care, but I don’t.

      Drumpf being a Fascist and all, I know it’s not him.

    2. Alex Rosales, we KNOW who the kkk and neo-Nazis support.

      @EAGLE SHIELD agrees with those guys.

    1. Not only that, but Buttigieg isn’t even mentioned and he’s currently second in this fundraising after Bernie!

    2. Jon Hillery, this piece is about GRASSROOTS activist donations.

      Buttigieg, like Harris and Biden, are corporate sock puppets.

    1. Im still waiting for any of these candidates to give low to mid income families (like mine) a reason to vote for them.

  7. Are you sure it was an accident that you forgot to mention the clear leader in the single donations category in your title MSNBC? His name is Bernie Sanders and we know what you are trying to do to him.

    1. W.A M.P, well, given that most citizens agree with his policies, is possible that the moron here is….YOU?!🤔

    2. Censored 1, this may come as a shocker to you, but A LOT of Americans have been to the USSR. Especially politicians.

      ESPECIALLY in the 1980’s.

  8. Very sleazy to delete Bernie’s name from the title. Very. Your arrogance is showing and it’s exactly that kind of BS that caused the Hillary loss and Trump’s rise.

    1. Just Another Old Guy No. Bernie being near tied with Hillary and suddenly dropping out in support of Hillary is why Trump is in office. Bernie took pay somewhere.

    2. Dan C Other topics? Ok. Have you seen the new wall coming up under your noses? MSNBC wont tell you that. Oh, the 9th circuit approved his green card revocation policy.

    3. @Dan C other topics tham the economy? How about preventing World War 3 with China, North Korea, proving there is an emergency at the border, proving there was no Russian collusion with anyone except the Democrats and a strong economy. I could go on and on. Maga2020

  9. Dont worry Harris killed her chance by skipping out on the climate change event to go be with big donors

  10. Bernie is the top fundraiser and he isn’t even in the headline?! We’re onto your game corporate media and we’re not playing!

  11. As of August 1st, individual donors:
    1-Bernie – 745,000
    2-Warren – 421,000
    3-buttigieg(sp?) – 390,000

    and Bernie is not in the title?

  12. Thanks for being honest MSNBC. Real Democrats will vote for Bernie Sanders because he’s not bought by corporations.
