NBC: Democrats Divided as Ever with Recent Turmoil, Defiant Bernie Sanders
NBC: Democrats ‘Divided As Ever’ With Recent Turmoil, Defiant Sanders (The Washington Free Beacon)
The Democratic Party is steeped in turmoil and as divided as ever amid Nevada’s chaotic Democratic state convention and Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I., Vt.) confrontational rhetoric toward the party, NBC reports.
NBC’s Kristen Welker described Wednesday on the Today Show how “the Democrats are as divided as ever this morning” after Sanders won the Oregon presidential primary by a comfortable margin while his opponent, Hillary Clinton, eked out a victory in Kentucky.
Clinton is still expected to be the Democratic nominee and maintains a virtually insurmountable lead in delegates over Sanders, but the Vermont Senator promised Tuesday night that he is not leaving the race, preventing Clinton from turning her full attention to Donald Trump.
