Hmm. Maybe you didn't get the news.

Trump won the nomination against 16 candidates who couldn't attract much of anyone to their rallies. This speaks for itself.

Who cares! It's nothing but a farewell tour, not a rally.

Yes, and their were numerous states where she led in all the polls and then clobbered Sanders when the actual votes were tallied.

You do understand what anomalies are, yes? Silly question, you're a Trumpette, of course you don't understand.

Mr Sanders wins 70% of the under-30 vote. However, Bernie's young voters don't show up to vote, making up just 17% of all Dem primary voters. These lazy Millennials, whom are define as those ages 18-34 in 2015, now number 75.4 million, surpassing the 74.9 million Baby Boomers (ages 51-69).

Daily chart: Young v old votes for Bernie and Hillary in the 2016 primaries | The Economist

http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank...-baby-boomers/

If those young voters had actually showed up at the primary polls Bernie would likely be the Dem nominee, based on Millennials huge numbers, not Hillary. But they didn't bother.

Bernie will need to win NJ by a 65-70% landslide to become relevant again. Not gonna happen.
