Psst! There will be no contested convention. The first round of votes will happen and Hillary will have enough pledged and supers to win the nomination. Just because Sanders has been bleating on about how it’ll be contested doesn’t mean it’s based in reality.

he’s one of the few non-millionaires in the Senate so he IS different.

Nope - it’s coming directly out of the WIC budget, apparently.

Because it seems petty and childish. Sanders has said multiple times that Trump is the real enemy here. His shot at beating Trump is effectively over. When Hillary lost she campaigned her ass off for Obama. Of course Bernie isn’t a Democrat so he likely doesn’t feel loyalty to the party which just highlights all the…

It’s not sexist that you don’t want to vote for Clinton. It’s sexist that a guy who lost by every conceivable measure is acting like he has some right to dictate her positions.

Except, of course, that Clinton addressed income inequality before this primary season. Here’s one example from 2014.

The way budgets work, the service would just find other ways to spend it to justify spending in the next cycle. those agents will still be paid as employees and assigned to other duties.

Just because the money doesn't go to exactly where you want it to go it doesn't mean there aren't more effective ways to spend it within the secret service.

Trump thanks you for your support.

And yet she conceded far earlier in ‘08 even though she was much closer in delegates to Obama. No one was telling her she had “every right to be there.” The opposite in fact.

Of course politicians have egos! Duh! Bernie and his stans really liked to play up the “I’m honest and an outsider! I’m doing this for the poor!” schtick. Dude no. He’s a politician like the rest of them no matter how much he and his supporters want to pretend he’s different.

Is he really though? She’s been outright ignoring him for weeks. And the longer he continues this, the more likely the Bernieorbusters are to refuse to fall behind Clinton. He’s not pulling her left anymore.

To me, it’s insanely disrespectful to Hillary that he hasn’t conceded yet. He has clearly lost. It’s not a contest. She has more votes and more pledged delegates. It’s over. I would like to see him graciously admit defeat and attempt to work with Hillary. He needs to put his ego aside, call off his rabid fan base and…

Whoa, wh0a, whoa. This site has been pretty impressive in NOT having a bias towards Clinton. I would venture to say that Gawker as a whole has actually been biased TOWARDS Sanders.

I don’t think these secret service costs are even in the top 15 reasons that Sanders shouldn’t be running anymore... But I do wonder what he thinks he’s accomplishing right now?

Lol. Oh yes, the secret service budget will immediately flow into Clintons appearance budget. GTFO.

Ah, yes, because funds for Secret Service details get converted to funds for people’s clothes. What are you smoking?

Why isn’t Donald trump paying for his own security? He knows the best, classiest, most luxurious security people!

Things like this make me feel like his refusal to concede are purely egotistical.
