At the current rate, Bernie won't have a majority of delegates, which means that delegates can vote for whoever they want in the 2nd round of voting. You'll likely see some sort of moderate compromise here, and that's the Buttigieg strategy. I think Biden is the more likely option, but Pete is a strong one.

Unless Bernie broadens his base, he won't be able to secure a majority. 

Poah, that seems like an awful strategy. I say that because that would severely piss off all Bernie supporters. I'd guess many would not vote for the person that screwed Bernie out of the nomination despite having way less delegates.

Really, that seems like a dream scenario for Trump.

In this scenario, if teaming up anyway in the end is the plan, then playing it straight from the start and going for a shared ticket right away would be way more honest.
