President Donald Trump has turned his attention to former Vice President Joe Biden and other 2020 Democrat hopefuls in the wake of his Super Tuesday wins.
On Wednesday morning, Trump took to Twitter with a response to Biden’s win. Trump blamed the Democrats for Biden’s win by suggesting that they had worked together to defeat Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). Trump also touched on Biden’s big win in Massachusetts, a state many predicted Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) would win.
He tweeted:
“The Democrat establishment came together and crushed Bernie Sanders, AGAIN! Even 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!”

On Super Tuesday, roughly 1,400 delegates were up for grabs in multiple states including: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, and Virginia.
So far, Biden has garnered roughly 47% of the delegates at stake. Sanders managed to snag about 40% while Warren only earned 5% of the votes, out of the delegates counted so far.
Following Biden’s endorsement surge ahead of Super Tuesday, there was lots of speculation that he would score big at the polls.
Nearing the end of Tuesday, Trump took to Twitter to troll the candidates who didn’t perform as well so far. The president shared his opinion of former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg.
Trump described Bloomberg as “the biggest loser” noting the whopping number of cash he has invested over the course of his presidential run.
He tweeted, “The biggest loser tonight, by far, is Mini Mike Bloomberg. His ‘political’ consultants took him for a ride. … Way to go Mike!”

After mocking Bloomberg, Trump moved on to Warren. The president touched on Warren’s previous heritage controversy.
“Elizabeth ‘Pocahontas’ Warren, other than Mini Mike, was the loser of the night,” Trump tweeted. “She didn’t even come close to winning her home state of Massachusetts. Well, now she can just sit back with her husband and have a nice cold beer!”

Over the last several days, Trump has taken aim at the Democratic party multiple times. As previously reported on IJR, Trump suggested that the Democratic primary was “rigged.” However, Sanders has asked him to “stay out” of it.
