Losers joshed each other with memories from the campaign trail.<\/p>\n<p>Notably absent were de Blasio, whose bid failed to gain traction, and Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, who is reviled by mainstream Democrats for her views on foreign policy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can think of this sort of like \u2018Survivor\u2019 on the out-interviews of all the people that got voted off the island,\u201d New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBernie \u2014 Bernie don\u2019t you laugh because I got a question for you: Like, why does my girlfriend like you more than she likes me?\u201d Booker added.<\/p>\n<p>Former Texas Rep. Beto O\u2019Rourke, universal basic income advocate Andrew Yang, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, and former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg all joined.<\/p>\n<p>Buttigieg, who won the Iowa primary delegate count, spoke of meeting Biden there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRemember the steak fry when we were waiting to go on? It worked out where I was there the same time he was,\u201d Buttigieg said, recalling a heartwarming story about Biden pointing out \u201csomebody who\u2019d gone through a family tragedy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Klobuchar said she was touched by a phone call from Biden after she gave a speech on the Senate floor that she was certain nobody watched.<\/p>\n<p><span><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HzRlD7zLrLI?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;autohide=2&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent\" title=\"Video\" width=\"640\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought I wonder if my mom was even watching this on C-Span,\u201d Klobuchar said. \u201cAnd at that moment, the cellphone rings, and I actually thought maybe my mom was watching it. And you know what, it was Joe Biden \u2014 and that kind of goes to not only his kindness for calling me and being a mentor, but it also goes to how much he cares about our government.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The losers were effusive in their praise for Biden.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Joe Biden, you have a human being who is empathetic, who is honest, who is decent,\u201d Sanders gushed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe magic of Joe Biden is that everything he goes becomes the new reasonable,\u201d Yang said, endorsing Biden\u2019s pick of fellow failed candidate Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) as his running mate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf he comes with an ambitious plan to address climate change, all of a sudden everyone\u2019s going to follow his lead,\u201d Yang said. \u201cYou can see with him choosing Kamala too. He wants to build the best team. Let\u2019s do it together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One loser was elevated above the rest. Bloomberg, who spent $188 million vying against Biden, got the prime slot just before the nominee\u2019s acceptance speech. He did not join the \u201cSurvivor\u201d reunion.\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If you want to read more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> articles, you can visit our <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/en.buradabiliyorum.com\/general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General category.<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>if you want to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">watch Movies<\/a> or Tv Shows go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/dizi.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dizi.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a> <\/span> for forums sites go to <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/forum.buradabiliyorum.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Forum.BuradaBiliyorum.Com<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: black;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/08\/20\/failed-candidates-have-reunion-at-dnc-without-de-blasio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Source<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;#Failed candidates have \u2018Survivor\u2019 reunion at DNC \u2014 without de Blasio&#8221; August 20, 2020 | 10:48pm | Updated August 20, 2020 | 10:56pm A group of seven failed Democratic presidential candidates held what resembled a \u201cSurvivor\u201d reunion of losers before Joe Biden accepted the party\u2019s presidential nomination \u2014 but New York Mayor Bill de Blasio&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":51071,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[56606],"class_list":["post-51070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general","tag-failed-candidates-have-survivor-reunion-at-dnc-without-de-blasio"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51070"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51070\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51071"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
