FULL TITLE: "DNC leaders flee Nevada State Dem Convention, call in sheriff’s deputies and hotel security as dispute over delegates escalates into violence"(video at link)

Bitterness and violence erupted yesterday at the Democrats’ Nevada State Convention in Las Vegas, as 64 Sanders delegates were disqualified, allowing Clinton to take 7 of the 12 delegates up for grabs. Party officials there ignored a motion from the floor and rammed through a vote according to the wishes of the Clinton campaign. It’s almost as if the Hillary faction genuinely fears for the nomination it supposedly has sewn up.

Along the way Barbara Boxer was booed:

Our Founders referred to democracy as mob rule. Looks as id the berned ones are taking it back to the original Athenian model.

Yes but Hillary will receive a massive cemetery vote no doubt with Vince Foster and Ron Brown voting in every state.

Hahaha. DMC: “bullies” come home to roost. They’re only bullies when they interrupt Democratic Party functions.They are otherwise peaceful protestors at violent Trump rallies.

Bernie gets the wins and Crooked Hillary gets the delegates.

Some believe that in the end, Bernie supporters will lick their wounds and get behind Crooked Hillary for the general like lemmings. I don’t think so. There will be too much bitterness and acrimony. Some will come over to Trump as he will be the anti-establishment choice.. Others will sit this one out or vote for some hopeless fringe candidate.

Clinton will steal the delegates now.

Trump will win the votes in November.

Hmmm. Winning the votes won’t guarantee he gets to move to d.c.

Some conservatives will stay home if their chosen candidate doesn’t make the nomination ... But not one will throw a punch at somebody they disagree with.

Wanna bet?

The suck-ups at the New York Times and Washington Post WILL NOT GIVE A DAMN ABOUT THIS STORY...

But they would be breathless about this IF it had happened with Republicans.

Remember - a VOTE for Trump is THE way to give the MSM the finger...

Bernie Sanders, the last hippie. The Ben and Jerry’s candidate. Free land and free food and free healthcare and free school.

The flickering last ebb of the age of Aquarius.

All it takes is winning the same stars Romney won and flipping Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Focus.

The national Dem Convention looks to have a chance to be more ‘interesting’ than what the Rats have planned for Cleveland.


The Rats will be wreaking havoc at both conventions. Neither will be boring.

At the RNC convention there might be a few arguements and fist fights. But, at the DNC convention they will go outside and break windows, burn garbage cans, tip cars over and burn them, and loot.

Some of my acquaintances of the liberal mind set(yes, there are two or three) are beside themselves that the majority of delegates are going for the hildeast in Philly.

My public schoolteacher brother is a Bernie supporter. He's actually sent him money. If there's three things we both agree on, it's that Hillary Clinton is a criminal, she belongs in prison, and the Democratic nomination is rigged in her favor.

I'll have him a Trump voter yet!
