Streaming out of the hangar into a cool Los Angeles night, some Sanders supporters appeared to heave heard two completely different speeches. | |
Fong Chuu, 54, a nurse, heard a candidate who planned to fight on until the end, still determined to get the nomination. “We never had any doubt, he’ll go all the way.” | |
Asked how the campaign can circumvent daunting arithmetic, she shrugged. “He’s a smart man. And there’s been so much corruption, you never know.” | |
Tong Chuu: 'Never any doubt. We'll go all the way.' Arithmetic? 'You never know.' pic.twitter.com/KyrZPrsUBM | |
Others echoed this argument: the nomination process has been corrupted – by the media, the Democratic National Committee, big corporations – and that revelation of a smoking gun may yet tilt the nomination Sanders’ way. | |
However supporters like Mel Horan, 57, an art teacher, heard a coded concession speech in Sanders’ reference to the movement, and the struggle continuing, rather than seizing the White House. | |
“He’s trying to start his pivot so that the movement survives him, for all this energy to beyond him. He didn’t want to disappoint people tonight but I think he’s starting to prepare.” | |
The “inevitability of the arithmetic” was clear, said Horan, as ebullient supporters streamed past. “But there is a lot of denial. Many are not hearing what he was saying.” | |
