Ana is just sitting there texting, real mature.  30 Under 30!  What a star among millenials.

Ana is just sitting there texting, real mature.  30 Under 30!  What a star among millenials.

She's not even on Twitter. But funny enough her last tweet says:

Quote
You must be logged in to read this quote.

Ana speaks for the first time in twenty minutes!
Cenk:  What I underestimated was the STUPIDITY of the Republican voters!
Ana:  Yaaas!

Cenk is being the quintessential smug liberal right now.  Trump speaks at a third-grade level so whenever anyone says Trump speaks for them, they're saying "I'm a third grade dummy."  Anyone read that Vox essay?
EDIT:  Oh gosh, one of them actually said "this is that smug style of liberalism that you read about online by the way" and Ana said "I like it!  It feels good to be smug."

Ana 30Under30 endorses Trump over Hillary!
She looks like she's about to cry.
Why does she have to swear so much?  No one else on the show has such a foul mouth or gets so hysterical.

Holy sh*t, she wants Trump to cut revenue to 30% of its current level and slash all the social programs so people will suffer and realize how stupid they are for voting Republican.

"Bernie Sanders is never going to stop fighting for us" dang this is hilarious.

People need to start believe in themselves and not politicians. This is not a jab at Bernie, it's a jab at people who think he's a God who will always be there and can fix anything. I like that Bernie wants to encourage them to work hard and that he would do what he can to help. But there's no free rides.

How can people watch this show every day?  90% of it is just Cenk monologuing, making fun of Republicans and talking about how Republicans and Hillary supporters are stupid and Bernie-supporting Democrats are smarter than everybody else.  Insult, insult, insult.  It's like listening to some drunk guy at the bar go on and on and on about his simplistic political views (Republicans are idiots).  I don't know how I could stand it, even if I agreed with him 100% I couldn't listen to this all day.

Sanders camp released a statement tonight. Re-shifting from winning to making sure that every contest is contested and that they will fight for their policy points.

Maddow declared the race to be effectively over.

Can you copy the statement?

Oh, I saw this, it seemed pretty standard though.  He's not going to drop out and wants "issue-oriented campaigning" as always.

I would be terrified to be at a Clinton rally. Literally any time the networks cut away to one, you can hear "Fight Song" in the background. Jesus Christ: is there some sort of subliminal brainwashing technique to it?

That song rules. I work out to Rachel Padden.

It's a fine song. It's not fine to play the song on an endless loop at any and every campaign event, which is the impression I keep getting every time I see coverage of one.

Very late reply here...

They played tons of different songs at the event, but whenever she takes or leaves the stage they play Fight Song. That's why it seems constant.

She's borrowing from Bill.  I imagine in 1992 and 96 people got really sick and tired of Fleetwood Mac

PA: Honestly, I started getting Michigan flashbacks when Bernie was ahead in Philly with <1% in. This must be PTSD or something.

Ugh, tell me about that.  I wonder how long it will be before I stop worrying that polls are underestimating Clinton by 20+ points or she's going to lose major urban areas to Bernie.

MD: Slaughter! As expected. I'm sad Edwards lost, but Van Hollen is cool too, so whatever.

I've honestly never been more revolted by a candidate than Edwards.  She was obviously inferior to Van Hollen when you compare their records as congressmen, but tried to make up the gap with an unholy combination of Cruz-style justification of incompetence (I sucked in Congress because I was busy fighting the establishment), Sanders-style attacks (he took money from Wall Street to vote for their favorite bill!) and heavy-handed borderline-racist identity politics (isn't it about time you had a Senator who represents YOU instead of another white man?)  She's basically the ultimate tea-party-of-the-left candidate.  Her losing is my favorite result of the night.
