Admits he's voting for Trump. Wants a "clear choice between an authentic, traditional socialist and all the people who just pretend to be"

In other words he wants the candidate ( traditional socialist) he thinks most of the voting moderate and center right voters would either vote against, or not vote. Using Bernie as a ruse.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
