Sanders is on MSNBC doubling down on the lies.

[spooky3]

Said the HRC campaign said it was attempting to "disqualify" him, as quoted on CNN, and reiterating his comments about her qualifications.

Kornacki: "He's standing by his remarks..."

[Cha]

1. Of course he's standing by his lies.

[spooky3]

2. She's giving a perfect response--"look, I'd take him over

Trump or Cruz, whose views are antithetical to"...what we need.

Sorry not exactly right--can't type as quickly as people talk !

[KewlKat]

3. I've recorded most of it.

Listening to Hillary now......also recording

[hrmjustin]

4. And Hillary is taking the high road.

[Her Sister]

10. She is just beautiful!!

smart and qualified!!!!

[BlueCaliDem]

12. Yes, she is! Smart, (over)qualified, hard-working, warm, and charming.

I can't wait for her to be our Madame President!

[LexVegas]

5. He's a fucking snake oil salesman. nt

[pandr32]

40. He is breaking down before our eyes

I really believe he has fantasized about leading a revolution. He went (as a lowly mayor many years ago) to meet Ortega and Castro. Ortega met him, but he was rebuffed by Castro who let some low-level underling shake his hand and get rid of him. Why would he have done this? To me, this is demonstrative of what has driven him all along. It also helps explain why he has been so standoffish with Congressional colleagues, and why he has always held a it's-my-way-or-the-highway type of attitude. He is above everyone else in his own mind.
He really, really, really wants this win, and at this point is getting desperate.

[KewlKat]

6. BS started by quoting the headline in the Washington post then

quoted CNN and a story about someone in clinton camp said they were going to disqualify him.......yada yada.....

[Her Sister]

7. Oh yeah and HRC is also in danger of breaking up the DEMocratic Party too!

or dividing it or destroying it, Whatever projection they said yesterday.
Everything coming from him and his campaign about HRC and her campaign seems to be just PROJECTIONS!
WEIRD!

[spooky3]

8. Now the Sanders surrogate Weaver is tripling down.

[pandr32]

42. Weaver is a nasty piece of work

The first time I ever paid any attention to him was after the Sanders camp theft of Clinton campaign data. Sanders started to indicate that he was sorry for the actions of his staff (though not sorry enough--nor did he admit how high-level that "staff" actually was) and then Weaver took over, as far as the media was concerned. He was aggressive and hostile. he set the new tone of the campaign right there.

[KewlKat]

9. Weaver is referencing Morning Joes' transcript that they new what she meant

and didn't say that he WAS qualified...........yada yada

[spooky3]

14. Now claiming Sanders WOULD support the eventual Dem nominee.

[Cha]

16. They sound just a little paranoid..

[riversedge]

30. Weaver came across--his tone as aggressive and bitter.. Optics not good.

[upaloopa]

11. He thinks it is the only way he can win now. It is his hail mary pass.

So he went from running a positive campaign to a full on negative campaign. I think this will destroy him. He is the leader of a lying, bullying group of malcontents. His campaign is reaping what it has sown.

[KittyWampus]

23. His campaign was EVER "positive". It was negative in its inception...

Demonizing Wall St. and harassing your opponent for transcripts of speeches she gave legally as a private citizen and which are her intellectual property and have NOTHING to do with legitimate campaigning is not positive.

Positive campaigns don't create demons and straw men to whack away on using empty rhetoric.

He has been a demagogue from the start and demagogues are not positive.

[Her Sister]

13. It's good that they're having to explain themselves!

Think they are all acting paranoid.

BUT also think they wanted to change the conversation to TAKE ATTENTION AWAY FROM NYDN INTERVIEW FIASCO!!!!!!!

[KewlKat]

19. Yes, Yes, Yes,......and FREE negative TV time against Hillary

Clinton camp needs to move away from this NOW.....the awful things he's said about her qualifications will be replayed over and over in the obsessive media...........so....get the message back to NYDN interview, or Sandy Hook gun fiasco.....or something else, etc.

[Her Sister]

22. I made it into an OP thread

argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just so infuriating!

[KewlKat]

24. GREAT

[BlueMTexpat]

25. Spot on.

But this has backfired badly. If anything, some are more likely to refer to that very interview.

Bring it on!

[Her Sister]

26. Haha!

Really want it to backfire!

[riversedge]

34. The NY press will not let him. Sanders underestimated the nypress once he stepped his toe

back in NY. Meanwhile Hillary is well aware of it. See how well she did with the impromptu presser on the streets of NY just a bit ago on msnbc. As another poster said---Hillary was shinning

[Her Sister]

38. I am in NY too! So probably that's why I won't let him neither

Sorry you not gonna fool me! NOPE!! SIREE!!!!NO WAY!

Ah yes HRC is just beautiful! Thanks for that! Kinda a lil furious today!

[KewlKat]

15. Weaver - she's not run a fair campaign...........

what about BS's small donations..........I'd like to know about the 10M, foreign contributions.....etc

[Cha]

20. Weaver talking shit and projecting again. He's the mastermind of the UNFAIR campaign.. he and

his sidekick devine.

Notice how they're always the victim? Always whining?

[riversedge]

27. I cross posted

this from gd-p. (to a sanders fan). Anyway.......it was a contrast for the world to see.


34. yes, I just heard Bernie double down on his crazy remarks. Shame on Him. He had an opportunity

to do what is right. But he did not.

While Sanders was up at his podium sounding bitter --

Hillary was shining and thoughtful on the streets of NY just now.


What a contrast for the viewers to see.

[Cha]

33. So good to hear about Hillary!

Thank you for reporting, rivers.

[BlueMTexpat]

28. Weaver and Devine are

indeed despicable - especially Devine's disingenuousness about SDs when he himself was an instigator of the concept. But the buck stops with Bernie.

And yes, it's always the victim card. Had Bernie actually lost WI, there would have been a great outcry about WI's voter ID law, etc.

I personally think that there should be an outcry about that fricking law and a lot of other things that reek to high heaven about WI. But that is not because Hillary lost. It is the general principle.

For Bernie & Co, it's only when they lose that a stink is created. Do you believe for a moment that they would have been upset about the situation in AZ (an outrageous situation, I agree) had Bernie won? I certainly don't.

[SaschaHM]

17. Jeff Weaver

is a terrible person. I hope the Clinton campaign oppo dumps the hell out of him.

[redstatebluegirl]

18. I think the problem is he has not been attacked the way he will be in the general.

The honeymoon will be over if he somehow, wins the nomination. We can all write the ads, likening him to a communist (the masses don't understand democratic socialism). They will trot out what this will cost in taxes and scare the crap out of the middle class voters. He has proven that he doesn't handle negativity very well. He has weaknesses he and his followers refuse to acknowledge. He doesn't have the intellect of Hillary. I like him and will vote for the nominee, but after yesterday's diatribe I will do so with little enthusiasm.

[BlueMTexpat]

29. All they will have to do is to describe

his life up to age 41 - the first year he ever had a full-time job. If there is any data on his ever receiving food stamps, for example, it will be played to the hilt.

And THIS is the person who dares to call Hillary unqualified.

[redstatebluegirl]

32. I don't think he or his followers have any idea how bad this will get.

The Koch Brothers hate him more than President Obama. They will break the bank with negative ads that will have their heads spinning.

[redstateblues]

21. Bernie is despicable

[Stuckinthebush]

31. He is sickening

and sad. Pathetic.

Many liked him a little. Now, we can't stand him.

Don't. Screw. With. Hillary!

[liberal N proud]

35. Do you think he knows its over?

[George II]

36. And Jeff Weaver just said on CNN that Sanders "has raised millions of dollars....

....for Democratic candidates". That is a blatant lie.

[Satch59]

37. Bernie seems to be thin skinned...

One bad Daily News cover and he goes to pieces... Welcome "home" Bernie... The optics of HIllary in the Bronx and on the subway were brilliant.

[George II]

39. She was great this morning. Sanders is trying to be "more" of a New Yorker than Clinton....

....by claiming "I was born in New York", yet he left New York 50 years ago. He couldn't make it in New York, so he fled to a place where he could survive for years without a bona fide occupation.

[Cha]

41. Yeah, no way he'd make it as POTUS.

[sarae]

43. Can you imagine

if he had to withstand even a fraction of what Hillary's been through? He would implode so fast.

[riversedge]

44. I just do not

want to wake up in the morning and see that bitter grouchy man lecturing everybody for the next years-If the impossible happens.

[sarae]

45. Fortunately...

it won't happen. I'm with you, though. I have to change the channel when he's talking.
