Bernie Sanders won't commit to leaving the race if he fails to secure the Democratic nomination |
2019-06-28 |
[THEHILL] White House hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders ...The (I-Vt.) declined to commit to exit the presidential primary race before the Democratic convention if he fails to win the party’s nomination. "I intend to be the Democratic nominee," he said on MSNBC Wednesday. "Some people say that if maybe that system was not rigged against me, I would have won the nomination and defeated Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... . That’s what some people say. So I think we’re going to play it out," he added. "So our goal right now is to win it, and by the way, as you may know, poll after poll shows what against Trump? It shows me beating Trump by 8, 9, or 10 points. We’re going to beat Trump, we’re going to win the Democratic nomination. " Sanders faced widespread criticism from across the party after the 2016 race that his insistence on carrying out his campaign through the Democratic National Convention even after it became clear he had fallen short of the necessary delegates to win the nomination forced Crooked HillaryClinton ...former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world,usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away... to continue battling an intraparty dispute and hurt her standing in the general contest against Donald Trump. He has long railed against the Democratic National Committee for overseeing what he slammed as a "rigged" nominating process that favored Clinton over his bully boy progressive campaign. While hacked emails revealed a preference among top party officials for Clinton over Sanders, no steps were made to materialize those desires. |

#5 He's not a Democrat. What's he doing trying to steal their nomination? He tried that last time and they rigged the primary against him. And then they won in court claiming they didn't have to respect the vote and could nominate whoever they liked. |
