And he has more than enough money to pay for his own internal polls - he's seeing his numbers fall.

Exactly. His "problem" is the outright and open contempt and hostility for the Democratic party...

Conflating a premise and evidence as one in the same is an absurdist fallacy.

Zephyr Teachout and Bernie were campaigning together on the "End Corporate Greed" circuit.
