Bernie Sanders Says He Won Iowa Based On The Raw Votes

Bernie Sanders thanked Iowa for a resounding victory on Monday at a press conference in New Hampshire.

The Vermont senator, whose campaign has essentially claimed victory this week, said on Thursday that the raw votes in Iowa meant he's won the state.

Asked why he was claiming victory when Pete Buttigieg has also claimed victory, Sanders said, "Because I got 6,000 more votes."

Maybe some super delegates slipped into the vote totals.

Face the facts, Bernie. The DNC desperately doesn’t want you to get the nomination.

I believe Bernie’s correct. Not only that, but the app worked. Its just that the results were Bernie winning big and Biden coming in last.

Well, now we know Buttplug is the designated nominee.

Of course he won, but does he really care about winning? Nope. He knows if he does well again the DNC will pay him off handsomely again! Typical communist. He talks about helping the little guy, but in reality he only wants to help himself. All commies are elitists, and Comrade Sanders is one himself. Maybe he can get another beach house along Lake Champlain or maybe a huge mansion somewhere in the Green Mountains!

That’s not how it works, Bernie.

You are right. He’s a scam artist.

Bernie keeps trying to run in a party that he doesn’t belong to. And it’s got both soroznazi and superdelegates and arkancide Somehow it doesn’t look too promising g for the old commie

Should all responsible people line up in front of the ditches now?

I thought the Democrats worshipped the popular vote, yet they had this Rube-Goldberg-type process decide the Iowa Caucuses.

And each bring a bullet.

Bernie, it seems, is the first high profile recipient of the left's purge list.

(One suspects that the list could be pretty long, and just might include many currently marching so obediently among the fifth column.)

Some of Bernie’s votes got redistributed, he would have wanted it that way.

Honestly, Buttplug is probably their best option. I don’t know how he’d get blacks to come home - probably keep his “husband” stuffed in a closet until after the election, I dunno. But, Bernie’s an admitted communist. Biden’s brain is fried. Poca has a DNA problem. Bloomberg has no appeal inside the coasts. The donks have some serious problems.

Some "progressive" countries are understanding enough to charge the responsible party's family for the cost of the bullet.

The DNC is trying to screw over Bernie again, it’s ridiculously obvious.

They may be able to pay off Bernie again so he’ll go away, but his lunatic supporters are NOT going to go quietly this time. This should be fun.
