here's what put trump over the top: a small group of unpledged delegates decided today to back trumpention, and it is rock solid support, like one pennsylvania delegate who says he will back trump on the first ballot, but "if there's a second ballot, i won't vote for donald trump, he's ridiculous. there's no other way to say it." now, come on! (cheers and applause) now, come on. that's not fair. there are plenty of other ways to say it. you could say "he's a bloated leather sack stuffed full of steak and ego." you could say, "he's got a head for bankrupting business and a body for sweatpants." you could say, "he's a microwaved circus peanut someone rubbed on a golden retriever. ly" dick louse. ridiculous. ridiculous. it was so comfortable down there. can i stay down there between now and the election? they're telling me i have to stand up. but wait. there's more. because hillary clinton has said she absolutely will not be debating bernie sanders anymore. so, today, trump announced that he will debate bernie sanders! that's right. two angry new yorkers shouting at each other -- it'll

and it will be very difficult for him to flip any unpledged delegates at this point.ut i think he wants to really help shape what the democratic party will look like. and i think clinton will start to make overtures to his supporters now that she's kind of shifting into the general election. she's going to be campaigning in general election battleground states coming up here soon. >> kelly o'donnell was saying it's tough. both of you know it because you have to travel during this campaign season. for candidates themselves to try to select one event versus another, tough. bernie sanders there in washington, d.c. does it sort of intimate based on his comments this morning that he is looking towards coming together, unity? because he again was mentioning that. and he by not being on the campaign trail at least overnight show that he is getting closer to that himself? >> he is not going to win this nomination. he's not going to over take clinton in delegates. what's the point of being in indiana trying to narrow the vote margin? it's still not going to get him ahead of he

our process allows for both pledged delegates and our unpledged delegates to cast a vote towards thel votes that eventually our nominee will earn. >> i'm asking because when we've talked to bernie sanders and his campaign, they offer two different scenarios here, for how they see themselves winning the nomination. one is, they say, if we can win the pledge delegate count during the primaries, we'll say we have the will of the people behind us. the problem s there's no way to see them winning that in the primaries. you confront them with that, they'll say, we'll go to work on the super delegates and make an electability argument, and say, bernie sanders does better than donald trump than hillary clinton. you should support him even though he didn't win the pledged delegate count. so is that a legitimate way for somebody to win the nomination, to get fewer delegates out of the primaries, but then rely on the super delegates to put him over the top? >> you know, steve, frankly, it's not appropriate for me to comment as the dnc chair on the strategy that either one of our candidates has
