Watching this part of the interview felt gross in the context of Bernie releasing that deceptive ad today, because it looks like Bernie is trying to box Obama in and keep him from objecting.

“I’m not going to tell you he’s my best friend,” Sen. Sanders says of fmr. Pres. Obama. “He kept his word … not getting involved early on. I know that there’s an enormous pressure on him to support Biden, and the fact that he’s not doing that makes me respect him even more.” pic.twitter.com/hXR1CLnXhL
