Trump is getting away with a lot bs. I'm convinced CNN is getting paid, he is on all the time talking about nothing that matters and saying outlandish things. He need to stop that bs about his taxes but Republican Party are the worst for allowing this clown to get this far. Smh

The Republican party and Donald Trump are playing the good cop/bad cop game.

Trump says/does some foul shit, then Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell release statements pretending like they're shocked and disappointed. It's all a game. If they were really disappointed, they wouldn't be endorsing him for President.

Lmao no. The whole point of Good Cop/Bad Cop is that its an act and they're really working together. This is no act. He's fuckin up in a way that forces them to repudiate his comments. This is like Good Cop/Drunk Cop. The good cop leaves, the drunk cop stumbles in ranting about his ex-wife and throws up on the suspect's shoes, the good cop has to come back in to carry dude out while muttering a half apology.

Meh, it's small potatoes, but I gotta respectfully disagree because I believe they are actually working together. If they were against Trump's views, they would simply rescind their endorsements. They're playing good cop to position themselves better when these Senate and House elections begin to feel the effects of Trump's racist views.

Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan are just as racist as Trump, so they know with the rapidly changing demographics in the country, their only chance of winning is allow Trump to rile up all of the closet racists to convince them to pull the lever for him in the voting booth. The only difference is they don't publicly speak on their racist views like Trump does.

They are using this strategy because it's their only chance at keeping control of the Supreme Court. They need the court in order to further gut the voting rights act and also to use the court to swat down appeals from lower courts that challenge these new voter suppression laws that are popping up in multiple states. The only, and I repeat ONLY, way for the GOP to remain competitive in upcoming Presidential elections is for them to suppress the vote of the soon-to-be Minority Majority.

Per NBC, Clinton & Obama discussing endorsement.

I predict once Clinton is projected as the nominee Tuesday, Obama will endorse the next day.

Pres. Obama is itching to get at Trump. He's sent a couple of shots, but once she's clinched the nomination, it's on

 

[Recaptimus_Prime360]

Welp...Hillary won it.

Well that's what they're announcing...on MSNBC

 

[Fosheezy]

the pres WILL NOT endorse because indictments is looming around the corner

and she doesn't have the nomination and neither will she get it with the remaining contest, only way she does have it is when you assume super delegate count. this will be contested

The POTUS Obama can't wait to endorse Hillary. There are reports that he talked to Bernie over the weekend, presumably to tell him chill the fuck out.

and she doesn't have the nomination and neither will she get it with the remaining contest, only way she does have it is when you assume super delegate count. this will be contested

This is no different than when Obama clinched over Hillary in 2008.

I pondered if he would endorse her. I knew he wouldn't endorse her during the democratic elections but now that she's clinched the nomination I could see him doing it within 3 months. At the end of the day his endorsement helps his party and pushes his agenda of change bringing a woman in as the next president.

At the end of the day I get the feeling Obama is someone who's conscious of how his legacy will be perceived.

i seriously doubt ppl voting for Clinton want 'change'.

yall listening to the same media that told yall for months Trump would NEVER become nominee, was no threat, and that suggest that Bernie would get nowhere near where he is now, and now they saying Clinton has the nomination, im saying she will not get it..once them indictments drop it's over

I'm pretty sure she will after tomorrow. Soooo...yeah. Bernie been in Congress long enough to know how the election process goes. I don't recall Sanders giving this kinda reaction when Hillary was losing to Obama in 08'. Don't recall him saying how the system is rigged. Where was he then?

Still lol @MSNBC the only network reporting that she's clinched the nomination. I like MSNBC, but I think they should've just waited until tomorrow. I think they kinda gun. It's like they wanna be the FIRST to announce it.

I get all my shit from CNN lol fuck a MSNBC haha

 

[janklow]

B-b-but he'll protect your guns, the only thing you care about! So what if he's a narcissistic fascist bully with no principles that thought "assault weapon" bans were as good as gold until a year ago? He's totally pro gun now and stuff. The NRA said so, that's good enough for you right.....?

if you think i trust Trump on guns...

but then Clinton and Obama have started this week being colossal shitlords who won't even acknowledge the Second Amendment in turn acknowledges a right. so you know i wouldn't vote for that fucking mess either.

 

[janklow]

Mitch McConnell and Paul Ryan are just as racist as Trump

seems unlikely

Welp...Hillary won it.

Well that's what they're announcing...on MSNBC

Hmmm, you've been lowkey defending Trump in this thread. Now you're defending McConnell and Ryan.

McConnell kept dancing around the answer of if Donald Trump remarks about the judge Mexican descent was racist or not, he kept saying I disagree with his statement but never said it was racist remark.

Jet fuel can't melt Bernie sanders!!! Don't believe the media narrative that Hilary won the nomination tonight, We need to win every state by 40 points in order to overtake the majority of pledged delegates. And I believe he will do it cuz super duper secret sources are claiming that Hilary will be indicted TONIGHT!!! Although previous investigations couldn't pin anything on her, the fifth times the charm. Persistence is our friend!!!! it is now time for the Bernie campaign to unite the party. To all the 3 million+ people who preferred Hilary over Bernie please realize that you guys were just misinformed voters. And to the minorities who voted her over me realize she supported the CRIME BILL OF THE 90s!!! Yes Bernie voted for it to but he had legit reasons cuz there was some domestic violence stuff he liked in it! Wake up sheeple!!!

MSNBC called it because the AP projected it so they based it off that.
