Shes 19 delegates away after weekend wins in puerto rico and the virgin islands. Still, Bernie Sanders is adamant hes not going anywhere. It is extremely unlikely that secretary clinton will have the requisite number of pledged delegates to claim victory on tuesday night. At the end of the nominating process, no candidate will have enough pledged delegates to call the campaign a victory. They will be dependent upon superdelegates. In other words, the Democratic National convention will be a contested convention. But Clintons Campaign is already looking ahead to the general and putting increased pressure on sanders to bow out of the race. Senator sanders said that he wants to do Everything Possible to make sure donald trump doesnt become president. Thats going to entail supporting democratic nominees. The party in doing it to energize the party as early as we can. And that should happen as soon as it is clear to Hillary Clinton, it is the nominee of the party and that will happen tomorr

Double down on the muslim ban throwing out mayor Rudy Giulianis name as a possible overseer. We have to be extremely careful. Im thinking about setting up a commission perhaps headed by Rudy Giuliani to take a very serious look at this problem. Meanwhile, the trump veep speculation, telling the Associated Press it is now down to five or six choices, all of this as president ial candidate Bernie Sanders refuses to back down against Hillary Clinton despite the damning delegate math. Please do not moan to me about Hillary Clintons problems. That was just a few moments ago here on msnbc. We have all the action covered on both sides of the aisle and in between as well. We start with our resident trump expert, katie tur who is over at trump tower once again. As we have donald trump preparing to meet tomorrow, now talking about getting Rudy Giuliani to head this commission on muslims.
