Nate Silver gets his snark on

@NateSilver538

The system is rigged in favor of the candidate who's won 3 million more votes. Unbelievable.

1. The victim schtick is tired.

[Lil Missy]

2. It makes them feel better to say it was a coronation, so they can play the victim.

[BobbyDrake]

11. They were the ones who expected the coronation, not us.

We always knew our candidate would earn her victory.

[Hekate]

17. That has always been one of the more amazing claims from the Bernistas -- and the media.

I never heard it coming from either the Dem establishment or Hillary supporters. Nor, for that matter, from supporters of Martin O'Malley and the other Democratic also-rans.

But St. Bernie and his acolytes have always been special.

[TwilightZone]

3. But, there were 12 million people in the caucus states. I swear! Oh, and this:

[BlueCaliDem]

7. Hah!

[workinclasszero]

9. HAHAHA!

[sheshe2]

10. Ha!

[savalez]

16. That should be in your signature!

And then post anything and everything all over DU.

[Gman]

4. Obama did well in the very same system

Against the candidate that win 3 million more votes.

[George II]

5. He has always seemed to be reasonably neutral about things like this. I guess even he........

....has had enough.

This is OVER. Time to move on everyone (psssst, hear that Jane, Jeff, and Tad????)

6. Look at this one!

If Clinton beats Sanders in CA by margin shown in the polls, she'd gain a net of almost 100 pledged delegates there. http://53eig.ht/1TvuIdu

12. Make it SO!

[Hekate]

18. Silicon Valley is going to pour money into defeating Trump after his "boycott Apple" screed...

They aren't Democrats out there, but they see him for the danger that he is. I imagine the money won't be going in Sanders' direction.

[fleabiscuit]

8. I may have to steal that. n/t

[sheshe2]

13. Go Nate!

Snark on.

[UtahLib]

14. Not snark, just the plain old truth. eom

[savalez]

15. Yep.

Next we'll see this

"Sanders blames voters for Hillary's win."

[NastyRiffraff]

19. He's already doing it!

Not in so many words, but he's absolutely ignoring the will of the voters. The "system" is rigged, the party favors Hillary Clinton, yada yada yada. Instead of "the voters have spoken." And they have. So will voters in the rest of the primary states.

[KitSileya]

22. He already did that. He blamed the Confederate voters*, remember?

It's those darn women and African Americans and Latinxs and old people, doncha know?

* Prominent BS supporters on this site think that Black voters aren't capable of deciding who to support in a primary. They think the Democratic party should diminish or remove the say Democratic voters in former Confederate states have in the primary process. For evidence, see the support they give WillyT's and RobertEarl's posts on the subject.

20. Great.. all the smart people aren't buying what burnie is selling!

Mahalo, working!

[anotherproletariat]

21. Funny how that works! nt
