Clinton fury with Sanders grows

“This is the worst-case scenario and the one people feared the most,” said one Clinton ally and former Clinton aide.

“Unfortunately, he’s choosing the path of burning down the house,” the ally said. “He continues with character attacks against Hillary. He continues with calling the Democratic Party corrupt, and he not only risks damaging Hillary Clinton and the Democratic Party but he's currently doing it."

Clinton allies say Sanders is only piling on by insisting that Clinton join him for a debate ahead of California's primary on June 7. The debate would be aired on Fox News, a network Clinton supporters see as fanning the flames between Sanders supporters and the former secretary of State.
Clinton fury with Sanders grows

I've seen discussions about what Sanders will do if he doesn't get the Democratic Party's nomination. I don't understand why there is confusion about that.

Bernie Sanders Says He Will ‘Certainly Support’ Hillary Clinton If She’s The Democratic Nominee
“Sure I will,” he said, when pressed by CBS News’ Charlie Rose in an interview. “Look, as I said a million times, I think the idea of a Donald Trump or a Ted Cruz presidency would be an unmitigated disaster for this country. I will do everything in my power and work as hard as I can to make sure that that does not happen. And if Secretary Clinton is the nominee, I will certainly support her.”

Could Sanders be any more clear than that? How can there be any confusion about his plans if he doesn't get the Democratic Party's nomination?

He sure isn't supporting Clinton right now at all, though. I feel like he's desperate personally. What 74-year-old man wouldn't be desperate facing what he's facing?

This is Sanders' last shot, and he's going to go down fighting...

Then, he'll endorse Clinton.

Good. It should be a contested convention. Her lead is based off of super delegates the ones that do not listen to the voters.

So take them out of the equation and Sanders is still losing significantly. Especially if you go by how many more votes Hillary has, something like 2.5 million + .

Not true. But if you believe Clinton that is what people are lead to believe.

As soon as she releases transcripts of her Wall Street speeches, she will get the endorsement she is deserving. Just because she has declared herself the Dem nominee for president, does not mean she has earned Sen Sanders endorsement.

She needs 77% of the rest of the delegates to win, if not we have a contested convention. Let the fun begin!

But aren't you concerned that, HRC is polling weaker than Sen Sanders against Donald Trump? Myself, it really bothers me the Dems might lose the supreme court nominee to Trump, by choosing the HRC machine as nominee. She has way to much baggage to run against Donald Trump.

The old adage of A house divided against itself cannot stand appears to be synonymous with the DNC at the moment, just like what the GOP is going through with Trump.

It will be interesting to see whether the house (either house) will cease to be divided or indeed fall. I suppose this will come down to whether the voice of the majority voters is listened to by the party establishment.

Either way, this type of in-fighting paints the DNC as a disjointed outfit on the brink of implosion, focusing on each other instead of the important issues facing America imo.

Don't tell me she's been trying to plug him again?...well not her poysonally.

Hillary is leading with Delegates, states won and the popular vote. If the DNC were to steal the nomination from her and overturn the will of the 13,000,000 people that voted for her they would have FAR much bigger problems than refusing to bow down to the demands of the Sanders camp.

Sanders has no room to demand Hillary release anything when he's refusing to release his taxes.

It's not worth explaining, the math they use is made up on the spot.

Bernie math bro

The democrats will rally behind Clinton.

There is contrived drama now, but behind the scenes, they're just laughing at us.

a reply to: Profusion

This is bad...the Dems must choose between a crime lord and a decrepit old fool and frankly the fool looks more appealing from where I sit.

Trump slaughtered any and all comers, 16 in fact, on his way to the nomination and is now sitting back and watching the Democrat slugfest. But as Trump says, "I just win". Yes sir, most certainly do.

Hillary can't beat a socialist from Vermont who didn't have a job until his 40's and can't even stand up straight, or even buy a suit which fits.

Good times.

Do you see a contradiction between the post above and the post below?

Sanders has already done what he needed to do and that was shake up the Democratic party. Trump has done the same for the Republicans. After 2016 politics will be fundamentally changed because of these two men.

Sanders is 74 years old and in my opinion should retire without selling out. His legend will be bigger than his career ever was.
Can idealists be reasoned with?

Neither side will actually do anything. Oh, we may see a few small scale riots, that are quickly brought under control
[ not even close to the infamous L.A. riots ] but on the whole, the American people will do nothing but sit and grumble. There will be no massive uprising, no revolt, no grand movement to bring "justice".
Are people fed up? Yes.
Are people angry? Yes.
Will they actually do anything? No.

Naww, isn't it nice to see people are still all about looks when it comes to picking a president....... so Hillary said she would release the transcripts of her talks when everyone else does.... well I don't see anyone else in the race anymore that has spoken with the bankers.... so where's the transcripts?

Why is it that one side has to pay people to go online and either troll or flame threads. While the other doesn't have to pay he just brings the passion out in people.

Why is it that the oldest running has the youngest voters. Why should my generation be dictated by some one who cares more about business deals then actually providing a proper future for my generation nor am I saying other generations don't care. But we are the ones in 20 years time picking up a the pieces of a smashed society, because if things stay the same there won't even be a chance for the pieces to be put back together, it's why we are the most voiced because we haven't been in this world long enough for a minds to be manipulated to the point where we can't see a way out.

Hell, I'm not even American but America has such a fix on the western world I can't help to care about the future of your nation because it's surely going to effect mine.

The oldest running has the youngest voters because as we age we understand why his platform and policies are cost prohibitive.

a reply to: randomtangentsrme

The money is there it just gets spent on bombs and ammunition and fighter jets and drones. Heaven forbid they stop bombing countries and use the money for education and healthcare. That's just un American!

a reply to: randomtangentsrme

Yeah cost prohibitive yet governments spend billions and billions of dollars on policies that dont work...oh sorry don't work for us but some how always work our for big business. Yeah my government spent over 300 million to buy brand new jets that dont even work. Your government has spent trillions on a war that got us where? That stopped what? You're on a conspiracy website yet you won't have any problems with what mainstream media tells you when its convenient to your opinions.
