Most conservatives would rather vote for Bernie Sanders than a GOPe candidate.

We ex Republicans have always thought that they way to defeat statist, Godless communism was to elect Republicans.
Now we realize that has not been true since Bush took over the party in 1988.
Worse, we now realize the GOP shares the very same objectives as the Democrats and we're mad as hell.
The GOP is the conservatives' greatest obstacle to sane governance that exists in the world today.

Trump is a huge middle finger raised at both the Democrat and Republican parties.
