Okay, seriously media that I couldn’t avoid because it was cardio day at the gym? HILLARY HAS NOT CLINCHED THE NOMINATION. She has 2184 pledged delegates, with 2382 needed to win. She has the plurality of pledged delegates, which is enough in “normal” democratic society to win the nomination. That’s fine.
But if she has this all wrapped up, why is she so afraid of Bernie? You have to respect your opponent, and she isn’t. Apollo Creed didn’t in Rocky One, and that’s why he was the villain. Hillary bowed out eight years ago, and lookie lookie she got a job as Secretary of State. Bernie doesn’t care about personal favors. It’s about what he stands for, and going the distance even in the face of losing.
If the party splits, she has herself to blame. After all, the DNC certainly has their own hand on the media machine, not Bernie. Go on. Bridge the gap. Show us you’re not the corporate chickenhawk we think you are. Be a candidate we want to vote for. I dare you.

THANK YOU.
They seem to be basing it off the fact that a bunch of superdelegates are supposedly definitely voting for her, but the superdelegates don't vote until July 25th. I don't think any more proof is needed that the DNC is deliberately pushing Bernie out of the race.

I hesitated to add something about, well. What exactly happens if Hillary is indicted with legit criminal charges? What's the DNC to do with their killswitch? I didn't vote for her 8 years ago, but gave her a chance this year. She's done nothing but make me feel uncomfortable with her.

That's an excellent point. I honestly don't know what would happen; as far as I know, no one has ever run while under a criminal investigation, or at least made it this far whilst.
