Refuses to cover his campaign ads
Refuses to cover his victories
Intentionally leaving him off of nationwide polls when data allow him to be counted (CNN infamous called Sanders "Other Candidate" instead of showing him, but counted Andrew Yang)
Slander about him being sexist when he encouraged women to run for office and only started going in 2016 when he asked Warren to run and she declined.
Mass media campaign about calling the Jewish senator antisemitic for not being "pro killing children"

So when the media is against you, people see it as a bad candidate, and don't vote. Even when he was never a monster, but Trump got more air time saying "Mexicans bring rape".
