ABC Asshat Jonathan Karl Questions of Bernie on "This Week"
After doing a 15 minute phone interview with Donald Trump at the beginning of the show, he did about a 5 minute interview with Bernie Sanders, who actually went to the trouble of showing up at a studio so he could be interviewed on camera.
1. So you won big out there in those 3 states. You're still way behind in the delegate count, but does that...what does this mean for the race, does this mean you are absolutely going through to the end?
2. But you still need 73% of the delegates going forward, which is a huge..... (interrupted by Bernie: "No we don't. No. No. No. I don't accept that. That is not the case. You're assuming that every superdelegate that now supports Secretary Clinton will stay with her. You're not taking into account that there are hundreds of superdelegates who have not made a decision....."
3. You've heard Democrats saying it's time to lay off Secretary Clinton, keep this positive now, stop the attacks on her Wall Street ties, her SuperPacs, all of that. Are you going to start laying off or are you know, going to start putting the pedal to the metal here? (this prompts a response from Bernie that contrasting his record with Secretary Clinton's on a variety of issues that he then goes through is talking about the issues, not a personal attack)
4. So you said in an interview this week, uh that, she may not be liberal enough to be in your cabinet, so let me ask you now after these wins, is she liberal enough to be your running mate, would you consider her?
5. So Senator Sanders, we saw a situation this week where an ISIS leader was taken out by American ground troops, Special Forces on the ground in Syria. You are firmly opposed to boots on the ground. Was that something that raised concerns for you? (prompts Bernie to start with "No, that's not quite accurate. What I have said is that I support what President Obama is doing....) Once Bernie started talking about how ISIS is in retreat and has lost 30-40% of the territory it had, Karl realized his gotcha question had not worked and started to cut him off and end the interview.
Karl asked all but the last of these questions with a grin/smirk on his face, as if the whole thing was a bit of a joke.
= new reply since forum marked as read
Bernie is only about 1,000,000,000,000 X smarter and he stood up to him.
Jonathan Karl. ABC News really had to dig deep to pull that piece of shit out of the septic tank. What depths they will go to when they want to try to trash a noble man.
So Karl...guess we ALL are supposed to get in line and support her Wall Street ties, SuperPACs and all that?
NO!
...have never been never been able to stomach this idiot.
