Bern madly trying to back-pedal his "messy convention" and "lesser-of-two-evils" comments.

Bwaahaaaaaa! What an amateur piker.

Bern: You've asked me questions about two remarks out of context."

Reporter: "But, those were the lead headlines from AP..."

Bern: "You media people are always taking things out of context."


STILL MORE VICTIMHOOD AND WHINING. He looks and sounds so pathetic.

And we are not supposed to correlate the two?

Too many similarities of late.

His fanning the flames of discontent could give us a trump in the whitehouse...his weakness is glaring...his ego in control...and acting more like trump every day....a shame we ever let him run in our primaries....

Bernie getting impatient and testy when the media asks him to explain his words. Bernie blaming the media. Bernie doesn't like messy questions.

He practically called for unrest. I hope for his sake that he has some control over the mob of 30,000 angry marchers meeting in Philly. He is going to be blamed for everything and anything that happens.
This could be the end of Bernies' "Movement"!

He is on record and he is responsible for the health and safety of his marchers, the police and everyone else who may be injured in some way.
