Instead, she unveiled a new line of attack against Republican nominee-in-waiting Donald Trump, hammering him on his past statements over the housing crisis and suggesting that he paid nothing in taxes.

“No president, not Bernie Sanders, not the greatest president you could possibly imagine, can take on the billionaire class alone”, Sanders wrote in a fundraising email to his supporters.
“What kind of a man does that?”
Or will they lick their wounds and get behind Clinton, a candidate they largely don’t trust because of her perceived coziness to the Wall Street establishment that they rail against?
Simpich said in an email Tuesday that he will ask the judge for an expedited hearing and hopes to be granted a hearing as soon as this week. “I’ll tell you what I’m going to do”.
The trip was the 68-year-old Clinton’s 12th to the Los Angeles area since she declared her candidacy on April 12, 2015, and second this month.
Entering the final contests in June, Clinton leads Sanders by 271 pledged delegates according to a count by The Associated Press but the self-described democratic socialist has vowed to soldier on and amass as many delegates as possible.
Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign is requesting a recanvass in Kentucky’s presidential primary, where he trails Hillary Clinton by less than one-half of 1 percent of the vote. The totals do not include Iowa, Nevada, Maine, Alaska, Washington and Wyoming – caucus states where the AP tabulated delegate equivalents, not raw votes.
Sanders has an extremely narrow path to the Democratic nomination, which rests largely on winning a majority of pledged delegates and then convincing superdelegates backing Clinton to switch sides. A statement from the Sanders campaign Monday night said Clinton “reneged” on her prior debate agreement.
State Republicans will send 44 delegates to the July national convention in Cleveland. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. speaks at a rally, Tuesday, May 24, 2016, in Anaheim, Calif.
Washington has both a presidential primary and a caucus system, but Democrats will ignore the primary results, having chosen to continue using the party caucus system to allocate their delegates. Even support Donald Trump? The Associated Press had not called the race, despite Clinton’s slight lead, in the event that Sanders might ask to recanvass the vote.
California holds its primary on June 7.
But despite the math, some Democrats are concerned that Sanders’ tactics could make it more hard to unite in the summer. In an AP interview Monday, Sanders said the process of crafting the party’s platform and holding its convention could be “messy”, adding, “Democracy is messy”.
If three dozen more superdelegates decide to back Clinton in the next two weeks, she’ll reach 2,383 before the last states vote.
Clinton and her top aides are ready to no longer focus on Sanders and have signaled for the weeks that they are turning their focus to Trump whether the Vermont senator is around or not. Ms Clinton has picked six members of the committee, Mr Sanders five and Ms Schultz the remaining four.
