pretended to drink it as a stunt, but then: "Obama sends the Pentagon in to use Flint for target practice and for ten days and nights in a row, fires missiles and bombs into abandoned buildings, troops firing their guns. Nobody was told in advance they were coming, people thought it was a terrorist incident."

Superdelegates
Hillary got questions in advance and Bernie didn't
More people in Michigan showed up for the primary than the election in November
Obama obviously wants to kill everybody in Michigan
