Hillary Clinton loses to Sanders in West Virginia primary
U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton lost West Virginia primary on Tuesday night to Bernie Sanders. Clinton is fighting on two fronts and has a near-lock on the Democratic nomination, but
continues to lose states to Sanders. The loss slows Clinton’s march to the nomination, but she is still
heavily favored to become the Democratic candidate in the Nov. 8 election.
Trump 69, won contests in West Virginia and Nebraska handily on Tuesday. The presumptive Republican nominee is set to meet with party leaders in the U.S. Congress on Thursday, including U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Paul Ryan and has spent the past week directing jibes at Clinton.
Trump zeroed in on Clinton’s protracted battle with Sanders, a 74-year-old U.S. senator from Vermont and has taunted Clinton in recent days by saying she “can’t close the deal” by beating Sanders, her only rival for the Democratic Party’s nomination since Feb. 1.
Clinton, 68, has said she will ignore Trump’s personal insults, including his repeated use of his new nickname for her, “Crooked Hillary,” and instead will criticize his policy pronouncements.
Trump’s called her “Crooked Hillary” and resurrected his attack against Bill Clinton’s past sexual relationships with women, painting Hillary as an “enabler” who wanted the women “destroyed.” At a rally in Washington on Sunday, Trump said Hillary was playing the “woman card” to get support. “You know what? The women get it better than we do, folks. They get it better than we do. If she didn’t play that card, she has nothing,” he said.
Clinton gave several TV interviews the past week where she called Trump as a “loose cannon” who can’t be trusted with the nation’s security.
She playfully pushed back on Trump’s “woman card” attacks. “I have never gotten a discount when I got to the cashier,” she said. Clinton repeated her defense of Trump’s woman card attack, saying that if caring about women’s health means playing the woman card, then “deal me in!” The crowd shouted the words in unison with the candidate.
