Hillary Clinton says the primary race is over: “I will be the nominee”

Hillary Clinton, now leading the democratic primary race by more than three million votes with just a few states to go, and having amassed the kind of delegate haul which has placed her on a path where she’s absolutely certain to mathematically clinch the nomination on or before June 7th, is done being diplomatic about it. During a CNN interview today, Clinton finally stated the obvious: “I will be the nominee for my party.” It was just one of several assertive remarks on her part during the interview.

“That’s already done, in effect,” Hillary Clinton stated in reference to the fact that she needs fewer than ninety delegates to clinch the nomination and she’ll automatically pick them up from proportional delegates in places like New Jersey and California whether she wins those states or loses them. “There’s no way I won’t be.”

Clinton is not calling on her democratic primary opponent Bernie Sanders to drop out, as she’s seemingly fine with his plan to remain in the race until the final states have voted in June. However she is being far more blunt toward her general election opponent, republican nominee Donald Trump. When asked if Trump is qualified to be President, Hillary Clinton stated “I have concluded he’s not qualified to be President of the United States.” This is the first time she’s been willing to affirm as much in those exact words. So why the defiant turn in her public approach today?

After a weekend in which Sanders supporters tried to violently hijack the Nevada democratic convention, in a failed attempt at stealing delegates for him in a state that Clinton has already won in popular voting, Sanders himself put out a press release in which he mostly sided with their behavior. That prompted numerous respected party leaders including Harry Reid and Barbara Boxer to denounce the entire incident and his handling of it.

Now it appears the incident has pushed Hillary to the point where she’s no longer willing to diplomatically pretend that the democratic nomination is still up for grabs. But she’s still refusing to attack Sanders over the matter, instead aiming her criticisms at Donald Trump, presumably in order to remind her own supporters that he is now her main opponent.

I do agree...its over for BS

[Iamaartist]

3. Yep ,she is...

[Thinkingabout]

2. Yes she will, I have seen several post about Hillary withdrawing, nope will not happen.

[Iamaartist]

5. She has to start now........

[TwilightZone]

8. If your strategy is based on your opponent withdrawing with an insurmountable lead...

you might want to question your campaign's management and leadership.

[Thinkingabout]

10. More so when Sanders finished second out of a two person race the thought

Of giving the nomination to the last place finisher would also question the leadership.

[Thinkingabout]

21. Moving the goal post and raise more money. On one report it looks like they

Will end in debt.

[BlueMTexpat]

19. This ...

[leftofcool]

4. Yes, she is!

[Iamaartist]

6. I agree

And as her supporters she would want us to trust her judgement she knows best....

[Stand and Fight]

7. I agree. However, I can't read anything from DailyNewsBin.

It's a site that is brand new and completely in the can for Clinton. Nothing wrong with that, but anything that guy says I take with a grain of salt. If it was called DailyOpinionBin, maybe that would work. He doesn't do news, he does OPINION about the news slanted in one direction. Even if I like the slant, doesn't mean I support it.

Come at me, bros.

11. Slant? Perhaps your Rashomon effect? n/t

[Stand and Fight]

15. I'm not sure what that means, but if it's an insult you can stuff it.

We're allowed to have differing viewpoints. Implying I'm anything other than a supporter of Hillary's- if that's what you're doing - is about as low as it goes.

[Stand and Fight]

17. Yeah, I looked it up and you can stuff it.

[fleabiscuit]

18. Ask any cop, three witnesses to an incident can give three different perspectives.

It's criminology 101. We look at everything through biased lenses. Arguing against what we believe is a way to clear those lenses.

And Bill might be full of crap Que Sera, Sera.

12. A lot people use it here...not the only one sorry you cant get it.....

A lot other articles and media trash her to much I have enough confidence she will be our nominee...

[Stand and Fight]

16. Sure. Enjoy your echo chamber.

Just be sure to not attack the Berners for the same thing.

20. I do see your point, but at the same time, when HRC has less positive news stories than Trump

in the general media, having sites that report obviously favorably for Clinton isn't making the picture lopsided, it is rectifying an already lopsided picture.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2016/05/18/research-firm-trump-getting-more-favorable-news-coverage-than-clinton/

There is no way in reality that there is less positive to write about Clinton than Trump. No way. So the general media is demonstrably biased.

9. Yes she is - now she can go get Trump

[Iamaartist]

13. Yes she can....

14. Finally! I've soooo been waiting for this.

[liberal N proud]

22. I can't think of anyone other than a BSer that would bet against her

There is no mathematical way the BS can beat her.
