Reporter good morning. Clintons decisive 16point win outstripped many predictions and put sanders on a collision course with mathematical reality. Her aides immediately urged him last night to return to his vow not to go negative on the partys likely nominee. Theres no place like home. [ cheers ] reporter celebrating in times square, clinton extended an olive branch to sanders voters. To all the people who believe there is much more that unites us than divides us. [ applause ] reporter sanders, arriving home in vermont, wasnt as eager to make nice. I am really concerned about the conduct of the voting process in new york state. Reporter he criticized new yorks primary system which did not allow registered independents who often favor him to vote. That makes no sense to me at all. People should have the right to participate in a primary and vote for their candidate. Reporter sanders actually carried most of new yorks counties. But clinton won in metropolitan new york and the surrounding counties, which were home to about 70 of the states vote. Clintons aides argue the senators tough new attacks on clinton backfired.

Cbs news political director and moderator John Dickerson is in washington. Good morning. Trump is winning primaries, hes bet organized, got better better organized, got better leadership. Is anything likely to stop him now . It seems awfully hard to see how he gets stopped. Even if he doesnt get the 1,237 the majority, every one of these big wins is a chance for him to claim fairness. Hes turned into the fairness candidate whos saying if i go to the convention and i have the delegates and votes, san ysidroi should get the nomination regardless of this threshold. This is a huge moment for the argument in the debate hes in with the republican party, every one of the victories he gets. Hes Building Momentum toward hes also building points in an argue. Go ahead, norah what are the challenges for him now, sglaun john . The challenges are to keep draining the Never Trump Movement from getting fresh anecdotes. He stopped the eruptions we saw every few hours. Hes got a new Campaign Team thats added discipline to the process. He needs to basically keep making his fairness argument, one of the best cases he can make for future contests, telling people to rally around the voice of the people should be heard. Thats a great pitch for him to make for the rest of the contest. Bernie sanders outspent Hillary Clinton by millions of dollars here in new york. He had huge crowds, and yet she crushed him on election day yesterday. Will today be remembered as the day that she clinched the nomination . The next three big contests are pennsylvania, new jersey, and california in which shes expected to win panned lyly handily. Youre right. It was a decisive win and proved the underlying rules at that clinton team and most democratic strategist have been arguing are in place which is to say in a closed primary with a diverse electorate that she does well, and does he very, very well. Its mathematically really that you can add the numbers up to get a way for sanders to survive. You almost need to do some voodoo to make it work. Shes really on her way. Other than some miracle happening for Bernie Sanders, shes going to have the nomination. Is it possible that the party now will understand that he is inevitable and that its necessary for them to rally around him . By that, i mean his competitors in the primary process and party leaders. I dont know about the competitors in the primary process. They dont necessarily lose anything by staying in the race. Thats different than the case for Bernie Sanders. It will be interesting to see how he behaves. In terms of party leaders, i think they still, there are a lot of people who write big checks for the party who dont want donald trump to be the nominee. These victories make it very hard for them to go at him. John dickerson, thank you. Thanks. In our next half hour, how the republican campaigns are trying to nail down the support of Party Delegates in case there is a contested convention. Well look at the questions raised by offers of free flights, lavish meals, and hotel stays. President obama just landed in saudi arabia at the beginning of a weeklong trip to the middle east and europe. Growing uncertainty in u. S. Saudi relationship. We have more on what the president hopes to accomplish. Good morning. Reporter good morning. This is president obamas fourth visit to saudi arabia, but tensions have never been quite this high. He will meet today with king solomon to try to heal the rift exacerbated by his recent description of the kingdom as free riders, too reliant on the american military.

The two countries are currently on opposite sides of brutal wars in nearby yemen and syria. The president s going to ask the saudis to pull back. The saudi royals are deeply skeptical of the president s intensions. They already felt betrayed by the u. S. Brokered nuclear deal by iran which gave is new influence in this region. Today, the u. S.
