Clinton: Sanders has every right to finish campaign

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Democratic Presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt, speaks to an estimated 5,000 people during a rally at Vado Elementary School in Vado, NM, Saturday.

WASHINGTON >> Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton says persistent rival Bernie Sanders “has every right to finish off his campaign however he chooses.” But she says she wants to focus on presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump because his is not “a normal candidacy.”

Clinton noted in an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday that she’s won 3 million more votes than Sanders in the Democratic primaries. She said it’s time to talk about Trump because his candidacy poses “immediate dangers” to the country.

Clinton criticized Trump for being open to pulling the U.S. out of NATO and allowing some other countries to have nuclear weapons.

She said she’s willing to talk with Sanders and “take into account” what the Vermont senator is asking for at the party’s national convention this summer.

    So arrogant. She should drop out and the choices will be clearer for many. She is just as hated, if not more, than The Donald. And therein lies the problem. You don’t hear large sums of despise over Bernie.

  2. BuhByeAloha says:

    I say we bring in Michelle Obama. If we’re even thinking of going with Bill’s ball and chain, let’s just vote in Michelle. She does seem “less awful” than Hillary.

  3. Keonigohan says:

    How wunnerful a statement from Crooked hiLIARy for PRISONdent.

  4. calentura says:

    Hillary Clinton thinks she is normal. That’s a good one.
