16. If he believes that, he's living in a delusional fact-free political bubble. He's lost any and all

leverage he had before the NY primary by attacking the Democratic Party, the DNC, Hillary Clinton, President Obama, and any and all Democrats who didn't bow their heads to his "awesomeness". Now he thinks he can get the support of those very people?? Don't think so.

I am truly angry that he still refuses to concede the primary race to Hillary Clinton. It's as if he can't believe that he's actually lost against Hillary! I guess it's because of that cozy little bubble he can't seem to break out of.
