Rep. Dean Phillips of Minnesota didn't seem too happy after getting wiped out on Super Tuesday. "Congratulations to Joe Biden, Uncommitted, Marianne Williamson, and Nikki Haley for demonstrating more appeal to Democratic Party loyalists than me," Phillips wrote on X on Tuesday after losing his home state to President Joe Biden by a landslide.

"And, Jason Palmer," Phillips wrote in a subsequent post, referencing the sole presidential candidate who won the Democratic primary in American Samoa.

As the numbers started to roll in on Tuesday night, Phillips started getting into it with Gov. Gavin Newsom of California. "Appreciate the self awareness. Tonight's the night you should drop out and support our nominee Joe Biden," Newsom wrote in response to Phillips' X post.

Newsom's suggestion earned a terse response from Phillips: "From a self-awareness professional." At press time, Phillips had yet to pick up a single delegate.

I've seen where Haley got approx. 30%.

As to Phillips, he claims he will support/back Pres Biden.

It’s unfortunate that this guy seems to be amplifying magat talking points, suggesting that awareness (woke) is a bad thing.
