I knew more Never-Trumper “Republicans” than I did Bernie-Bots. Several BB’s went for Trump yay!
As well they should have!

This isn’t going to make me very popular but I believe a Trump-Sanders election could have seen Sanders win.
There was maybe 5 percent of potential Hillary voters who opted out because of what was done to Sanders, add those to the number of blue-collar, anti-establishment voters who voted Trump because they couldn’t stand Clinton but who would have been attracted to Sanders and you have a situation where Bernie could have pinched it.
The Dems did Trump a huge favour by putting up Hillary rather than Bernie.
