Michelle Goldberg on Trump Admin's Corona Whistleblower

Super Tuesday will mark the beginning of the end for some candidates. For those who do garner enough support, it will likely be the beginning of a new conversation: How, if it comes down to it, should the party navigate a brokered convention? In the wake of outrage over what his supporters considered the outsized power of superdelegates (elected Democrats and party elders) to decide the nomination in 2016, Sanders successfully lobbied to remove them from the first convention ballot. Now, with the strong lead he's gained, he's arguing that the nomination should go to whichever candidate goes into the convention with the most delegates, even if it's not the majority needed to clinch the candidacy in the first round of voting. If Sanders does enter the convention in Milwaukee with a leading plurality, but not a majority, the congressional Democrats, acting as superdelegates would be put in a sticky position: put some someone at the top of the ticket that they fear could hurt their odds to keep their House majority, not to mention their own seats; or, vote against the candidate that has proven most popular, albeit polarizing, among their party's voters. On Today's Show:Michelle Goldberg, op-ed columnist for The New York Times, talks about the Trump administration's response to the corona virus, and the latest news in the 2020 presidential campaign.
