Looks like Sanders won't go down without a fight. This might be just what he needs heading into ST2.

 

[boiled goose]

This is a little bit like a serial killer telling you people are inherently evil. From a different source it might be interesting, but in context it should really just frighten you more.

It is important to understand this though. This is his angle against Hillary.

This is his appeal.

 

[JABEE]

lol that hostility line.

 

[Gigglepoo]

Why does Trump think Clinton won't be allowed to run?

 

[Square2015]

I just did the math from the CNN Exit poll:

Bernie wins Michigan 52% to 46%! Holy crap.

Also Bernie won 32% of the Black vote.

 

[davepoobond]

edit: never mind, i misread it

 

[Steel]

I'm sure you'll forgive me if I don't shed a tear for the plight of today's "journalists."

Of course. The news media has become a ratings hunting machine first and foremost, no doubt. That being said it's become a weak get-out-of-jail-free straw-man used to dismiss facts.

 

[gamz]

lol that hostility line.

I can't stop laughing.

 

[dave is ok]

Why does Trump think Clinton won't be allowed to run?

He thinks she'll be indicted by the FBI

Which is why I don't see it happening.

But even if it does, what difference does it make? We need to be looking forward to a Clinton/Trump GE matchup and hope that the turnout is strong.

 

[B-Dubs]

That's wild.

Wonder what's up with the sample.

Detroit literally hasn't come in yet. There's like 600,000 black people in Detroit. Unless Bernie made insane inroads there, that's going to be what decides the state.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

He's already taking questions like a president

Holy shit

the flags behind him, the podium, the press core in front of him... he's been doing this for the past three contests and it's so smart.

 

[shanafan]

I just can't change the channel on this. Trump has me glued.

 

[Prompto]

Michigan sounds like it's going to be down to the wire for Clinton and Sanders

 

[Nipo]

WSJ disgusting poll!

 

[JABEE]

Disgusting poll. lol

So many ways to spin that.

 

[Tesseract]

Trump is a genius. Like, actually gifted in intelligence. I don't think anyone else could manipulate an entire political party of the most powerful country on Earth like he is doing right now.

Yup, it's freaky how much he's bending reality to his favor

Dude's brain is in constant deal making mode

 

[MThanded]

Michigan reporting is very odd right now. Won't know anything till they get stuff straight

 

[Triplicates]

Trump is just dismissing Bush as "another person" now.

I’m looking on the Wayne County clerk’s website to try to get an idea of where the vote is being reported from in Wayne County. It seems, at least as of earlier this hour, that Detroit was at 0 percent. The nearly uniformly white areas of Grosse Pointe Shores and Plymouth were at 100 percent. In other words, the percentages coming out of Wayne County right now don’t really reflect how black areas are voting.

Maybe this is what they meant by low turnout in Detroit.

Wayne County is closer than it should be for Hillary. Not looking good.

 

[Calamari41]

Dude Trump is icing the GOP right now, the whole political sphere is breaking

People are amused and laugh at The Donald's antics, but what he's doing is historic. The party is ready to put a bullet into its own head with a brokered convention. It won't recover.

Trump is a genius. Like, actually gifted in intelligence. I don't think anyone else could manipulate an entire political party of the most powerful country on Earth like he is doing right now.

This. None if this is an accident.

And what percentage vote? Millenials are technically the largets voting bloc but we all know they arent a major group (yet).

 

[massoluk]

Sigh, America. This man is totally Un-Presidential

 

[sangreal]

this guy arguing about polls from a month ago lol

 

[B-Dubs]

Wayne County is closer than it should be for Hillary. Not looking good.

Detroit reporting is still at 0%.

 

[Nipo]

Is he actually talking about the Racists for Trump ad?

 

[boiled goose]

I just did the math from the CNN Exit poll:

Bernie wins Michigan 52% to 46%! Holy crap.

Also Bernie won 32% of the Black vote.

If Bernie wins Michigan it would be his biggest win and upset of the campaign. This will scare Hillary and she will strike back

 

[smokeymicpot]

the flags behind him, the podium, the press core in front of him... he's been doing this for the past three contests and it's so smart.

Yeah. Trump is a dick but knows how to present himself to his audience that he is talking to.

 

[eyeball_kid]

also, while we were paying attention to Trump, Hillary pulled ahead of Sanders

Not sure where you're seeing that. NPR has Bernie 51.4% (205k) - Hillary 46.7% (187k).

 

[Miles X]

Did you read what you just quoted?

 

[brainchild]

I'm pretty sure I know exactly why the polls aren't matching the results we see in Michigan right now, but I'll wait until most of the precincts are in

 

[bwahhhhh]

Sigh, America. This man is totally Un-Presidential

he heard you

 

[pigeon]

CBS channels President basically laid it out. Trump may be terrible for the country but he is amazing for the ratings. Unfortunately ratings before country

I mean, to be fair, if a presidential candidate was amazingly awful, racist, and hateful, I would actually want the media to cover it as part of the process of shaming them into withdrawing from the national stage forever.

Clearly with Trump this has not been super effective because he is a superhuman being without a sense of shame, but I honestly don't think the theory is wrong.

 

[bluelightningduo]

Detroit reporting is still at 0%.

The hipsters living 10 per studio apt in Detroit will carry it for Sanders

Michigan has open primaries, and it appears as though some voters who were interested in both races wound up voting on the GOP side. According to exit polls, 7 percent of Michigan Republican primary voters were Democrats; by contrast, 3 percent of voters in the Michigan Democratic primary were Republicans.

Thank you Michigan democratic voters who decide to muddy Trump waters or voted Trump

Spoiler

lol

 

[davepoobond]

misread, i dont see in lines correctly sometimes

 

[MThanded]

He can be more presidential than anybody.

Other than Abe Lincoln lol

 

[Geist-]

he heard you

Damn, he must have super powers.

 

[Hexa]

LMAO. Someone asked him about the anti-Trump ad about him cursing and he just said that its better than any ad that he put out for himself.

[GoldenEye 007]

he heard you

Yeah, he's literally addressing it right now. Basically adjusting his tone to the audience or situation.

 

[Dennis]

Lincoln still the king.

 

[nocturnalis]

So either Bernie wins or he loses and his crazed fans blame the black people in Detroit. Great...

 

[Downhome]

the flags behind him, the podium, the press core in front of him... he's been doing this for the past three contests and it's so smart.

I was literally just telling my wife why he was doing it this way instead of a normal crowd. It's so smart, and that shouldn't be understated. I say it all the time, but he knows exactly what he's doing.

The amazing part is that from what I remember, unless it has changed, that he pretty much makes these decisions on his own. The guy that was in charge of his campaign quit, still supports him, but he quit because he didn't see the point in being there since Trump just did whatever he wanted to do anyway.

 

[Pineapple]

Trump bringing vulgarity to the White House confirmed.

 

[CrocMother]

Sanders only losing black vote by 32% according to exit polls in Michigan

 

[Kickz]

Michigan feeling the Bern

 

[shanafan]

What did that guy just say about being PC?

 

[pigeon]

It is important to understand this though. This is his angle against Hillary.

This is his appeal.

I do understand it, I just think that Americans are not that stupid and racist.

Ah yes, because voting for the party that fed children lead poisoned water is always a bright idea. Ugggh.
