There are 774 pledged delegates left. She has 1776 and needs 2383. She needs 597 of the remaining 774 pledged delegates, or about 77% of the remaining delegates.
It's about as realistic as Sanders overtaking her in the pledged count. Well nah, she's slightly more likely to do that I suppose

These scorched earth tactics are making me lose respect for Bernie.

Do you think that it's possible for Hillary to snatch the majority of pledged delegates (2027 I believe) though? If she did, it would nullify and Bernster argument that it would be a different story if supers weren't a thing.

It's only 2026 but anyway she will. If she didn't do that she shouldn't be the nominee - but she's only 250 away from that. To get to 2026 she only needs 32.35% on average in all the remaining states, including PR, to get the pledged majority.

Bernie Sanders' Excuses Tour - 2016
Iowa - coin tosses were rigged, used weighted coins to land on heads, magic coins, election fraud
Nevada - Clinton supporters pretended to be members of a Union to sway votes, latino's were told the wrong date, election fraud, Clinton's logo on registration sheets, a handful of Clinton voters may or may not have registered, too hot!
South Carolina, Alabama, and Georgia - "Southern blacks are too dumb to vote for Sanders"
Massachusetts - Bill Clinton blocked 20k people from voting. Should be arrested.
Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Louisiana, and Mississippi - Sanders didn't "compete" there because "black people"
Florida - old people retire there, election fraud, voter suppression
Arkansas - Clinton's home state - "dumb black people"
Illinois - Clinton's home state, election fraud, voting machines were rigged by Rupert Murdoch, Clinton hired protesters to dress up like Bernie supporters to shut down the Trump event
North Carolina - "more dumb black people"
Ohio - John Kasich stole our votes!
Arizona - Election fraud, voter suppression, old people retire there, ballot shortages (nevermind that this was being controlled by a republican election board, and this happened in a county in which Hillary won by over 15%)
New York - Clinton's home state, closed primary, election fraud, voter suppression, rigged voting machines, southern state, exit polls actually prove he won. 125k+ voters were purged from the voter database (nevermind that they were long-term democrats in an area in which Hillary won by over 20%)
Delaware - Part of the confederacy
Maryland - TIL: Northern blacks are just as dumb as their southern counterparts
Connecticut - All the corrupt Wall Street execs commute from there.
Pennsylvania - My mom made me clean my room so I couldn't vote. Clinton's campaign posted **** to our FB pages.
Indiana - The Clinton campaign is calling Bernie supporters to tell them he's dropped out..... oh wait, WE WON??? Well never mind then, there's nothing to see here, move along
Nevada (lost again!) - Some of our delegates showed up to a democratic convention in a democratic primary, but weren't registered as democrats, and they didn't let us in! Some showed up without proper ID, and they didn't let us in! We worked hard to steal the state away from Clinton, and them stealing it back is unfair!!! We clearly SCREAMED louder than the old ladies that were representing Clinton, therefore, we obviously should've won!
Kentucky - Election Fraud! Several complaints were filed in Jefferson County (which is the largest county, with the biggest minority population, and Hillary won by 15%)
Virgin Islands - Tax haven for the establishment! Not a real state. Shouldn't count
Puerto Rico - Election Fraud! Bernie pollsters couldn't get certified because they showed up too late. Bernie supporters stole ballot boxes (oh wait!). Deep south. They just don't know Bernie there. Dumb black people.

There's a 0.5% chance neither candidate receives the pledged majority Tuesday as there's only one democratic contest left the week after.
So there's an extremely high possibility she gets the pledged majority Tuesday. And it wouldn't nullify his argument. He would still rail against the system that gave her that pledged lead

That's so cool! 
I don't think Jessie has ever mentioned Hillary but I'm sure she will before the general election which would be good for her campaign!! I know Demi, Katy and Beyonce have already endorsed her so if she can get Jessie and Rihanna to as well she will be huge.
