An individual attempted to place an obituary in a Nevada newspaper declaring Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton was dead, according to a Friday report in the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
The bizarre incident spurred the paper to report the incident to the Secret, the newspaper said.
According to its own account, the Las Vegas Review-Journal, reported Friday that Don Schubert tried to actually drop off a Las Vegas Review-Journal “obituary form identifying the deceased as Hillary Rodham Clinton.” On the form, Schubert allegedly wrote that Clinton died on Feb. 20, 2016. That is the day of the Democrats’ Nevada caucus where Clinton and Sanders are battling it out to win delegates in the state.
Then, the paper says Schubert drove away from its offices in a Prius that was spotted with Bernie Sanders decals. The paper reported the incident to Secret Service and Schubert told the paper later that night that he had been contacted by the Secret Service about his effort to put the Clinton obituary in the paper. Schubert told them that he had only meant the stunt as an exercise in “political humor.”
Fucking hysterical. Should go on the road with that humor.
What is wrong with people. I hope the secret service made him wet his pants.
That is disgusting and something the GOPers would do. I can see Trump wholeheartedly chuckling about it. Bernie needs to make a forceful statement about how wrong this was. And not just a simple one line statement.
Political Humor from the Sanders camp. He thought it would be funny. The Clinton’s and President Obama brought guys like Sanders to the dance and this is how Sanders pays them back? Do you think that in a million years the American people would listen to a 74 year old Socialist atheist Jew if it weren’t for the way that Obama and the Clinton’s established the political lanes for him to coast into as a newly proclaimed Democrat? After 30 years as an Independent? And now his people want to write Hillary’s obituary and crow about it? Fat chance
Why should Bernie have to make a statement for each dumb supporter he has? How absurd. All candidates have dumb, classless supporters.
They reported it to the Secret?
