I said struggling before South Carolina. Am I wrong? Let's go by the actual facts, rather than going by your pathetic partisan re-writing of history, shall we?

Iowa was the first state. The results, in order of votes:

1. Sanders
2. Buttogieg
3. Warren
4. Biden (13.7% of the vote)


Then New Hampshire, with results as follows:

1. Sanders
2. Buttigieg
3. Klobuchar
4. Warren
5. Biden (8.3% of the vote!!), one position ahead of Tom Steyer

Then Nevada, results as follows...

1. Sanders (40.5% of vote)
2. Biden (18.9% of vote)

Those were the states before South Carolina, Pete.

I say Biden was struggling at the time.

You deny that.

This might be the most pulverizing yet, of the thousand times you have humiliated yourself here and just been mercilessly bitch slapped.

What are you afraid would have happened, if you just said, "yes Biden was doing poorly before SC"? That's what happened. I'm sorry if you don't like it, but that's what happened.

Do you ever, ever get tired of being so wrong?

Here's the data.

Biden desperately needed a win in SC. He needed that black congressman to endorse him, and he got that endorsement immediately after promising to nominate a black woman.

From the New York Times...

"Mr. Biden made the promise at a debate in February 2020, just days before facing his Democratic rivals in the South Carolina primary, where Black people make up a large portion of the party’s voters. At the time, his campaign was struggling amid losses in two of the early presidential contests."
