There is no rigged system.

He has lost. There is no mathematical path to victory. “why do you care” because staying in he can still do damage to the party and make it harder to focus the entire party on Trump. It really isn’t that hard to figure out.

It is when she can’t attack him and he gets to go around airing negative campaign tactics against her again and again. Sanders hasn’t had a single attack ad run against him. He hasn’t had his feet held to the fire on any of his positions except in that one editorial board interview, which people said was unfair.

To be fair, he’s also losing in the popular vote and the pledged delegates, so his argument about superdelegates really holds no water.

Fun Fact: Hillary conceded to Obama 8 years ago tomorrow—the 18 million cracks in the highest glass ceiling speech was on June 7. She was out by early June. She didn’t fucking contest the convention, she started campaigning for her party’s nominee. And this after being MUCH closer to Obama than Bernie is to her…

He was called out on this (I think by John Dickerson?) and refused to see the hypocrisy of trying to sway superdelegates away from Clinton even in the states she won. I have so little respect left for how Bernie is running his endgame.

This isn’t the democratic process. He won the caucuses, which are incredibly undemocratic. He also isn't following the rules of our democratic process, which for better or worse (worse), include super delegates. He's the one who can't handle it.

Hillary won the POPULAR vote in ‘08! Bernie is down by 3 million votes at this point. It’s not the same thing at all.

Not really. It was much much closer in 2008, and the second that it was clear that Obama beat her, she packed it in and began campaigning for him immediately, long before the convention. In fact, she was the one to nominate him at the convention.

That is what I was thinking as well. His ego is driving the bus now and if he doesn’t acknowledge the near impossibility of his nomination he could very well pull a repeat of what Nader did.

I’ve been called a fucking Hillary shill cunt so many times I no longer hesitate before saying what I think.

I didn't vote for Sanders in my primary but I liked the things he said about high minded ideals and grass roots change and a positive, down to earth campaign. Turns out he's just a delusional narcissistic prick only in it for himself and he'd be happy to burn the DNC down for a few more headlines. Time to drop out and…

Looking forward to the part where Bernie does this at the convention then.

08 was much closer (especially on gross vote count, since Obama did much better in caucus states). By the numbers she still should have dropped out in May, but Bernie should have dropped out in late March...

His ego and him being an old, entitled white man who can’t believe he’s being beaten by a woman.

“Let the voters decide! This is not an anointment! Superdelegates shouldn’t matter.”

For all that I admire many of Senator Sanders’s positions, I get the feeling that this is much more about his ego and about his really bad case of Presidential Fever than it is about the integrity of the system. Just tossing the dice and letting the chips fall where they may, with a possible Trump presidency as one of…

Oh, Abe.......I mean Bernie, it’s time to go.

This just seems like an exercise in delusion or ego on the part of Sanders. He’s not going to win the nomination. He needs to realize this and start discussing coming together to defeat Trump.

I can’t even with this guy anymore. I’ll be donating money to whomever challenges him for his seat in the senate.
