Elizabeth Warren bashes Trump at Democrat State Convention
Turning to the upcoming presidential election, the governor noted how Clinton supported Obama after he defeated her for the party nomination in 2008.
At the gathering inside Tacoma’s convention center, hundreds of delegates met to debate the party platform and rules and to finalize a slate of delegates to the Democratic National Convention next month.
Sanders emerged from the primary with a highly respectable 1,881 delegates.
The Hillary Clinton supporters are ready for unity.
I recently had the opportunity to meet with Secretary Clinton and discuss some of the very important issues facing our country and the Democratic Party.
Hillary Clinton and her Democratic allies have invested at least $41 million in commercials in crucial states such as Ohio, Florida and Nevada over the next six weeks, a series of summer broadsides against her Republican opponent.
“We need your contribution by 11:59 P.M. tonight”, said an email from the Trump campaign to his supporters.
Grass-roots groups like Democracy for America, which grew out of Howard Dean’s 2004 presidential bid, and MoveOn, formed out of frustration with the impeachment of Bill Clinton, have pushed the Democratic Party leftward, political analysts say.
Sanders did not announce to suspend his campaign, but vowed to work with Clinton, 68, to defeat Trump, 70, saying in the next five months, his main focus would be to ensure Trump’s defeat. The list of course reads like a transcript of a speech from “A Future to Believe in” rally, a Bernie rally for those that don’t know.
“It’s preemptive. I say that the national convention hasn’t even been ended – or – hasn’t begun, and so to say something to go against the process, it negates the process all together”, said Gwartney told KING 5.
The lukewarm endorsement of white evangelical Christians, a crucial bloc of Republican voters, could undermine Trump’s chances of winning the White House in November, according to Religion News Service (RNS). “I’m fighting back”, Warren said. His plea was upvoted more than 4,000 times. Clinton won due to more money and to her husband, who is a past president and knows what it takes to win. “I remember when people grieved when Hillary stepped down and Obama took over”.
“Now’s the time”, he said, indicating that the nomination battle is essentially over. The Polk County Democratic convention was “pretty contentious, but at the 3rd District convention it wasn’t quite as much”.
That should be enough to bring the two sides together, Sue Dvorsky, a former state party chairwoman from Coralville, said. “We’ll see if the right things happen”.
One concern Warren highlighted was Trump University, which Warren said Trump created to “profit off other peoples’ pain” as the “fraudster in chief” while citing the billionaire’s lawyers’ action to block the release of taped testimony in an ongoing Trump University court case.
Rather than be a participant in that, however, Sanders on Thursday appeared to be an isolated survivor of the campaign whirlwind, delivering his swan song via video before a plain blue backdrop bearing his name, a performance that lacked the energy and enthusiasm that had marked his campaign while it lived.
