A few weeks before the Maryland primary I was in Washington for the weekend and as I came out of the Metro a group of Bernie supporters were there with their posters etc...
As is always my practice I engaged them in conversation and walked down the sidewalk with them towards my hotel...
They were cordial and we had amiable conversations about my candidate, Trump and our matched enemy, Hillary...
If anything Bernie supporters appear to hate her more strongly...
They know Bernie has little chance of winning the nomination but they refuse to support Hillary even assuring me that several that they knew of might turn to Trump in November should Hillary end up as the Democrat champion...
Trump seems to be preferable to these Democrats..
Amongst the Bernie supporters were students, and older people both professional and working class...
I don’t think they would have refused me aid if I needed it and I on my part would not have refused them if they were stranded and in need of help...
As I said earlier..that tow truck guy wasn’t asked to bake a SSM cake...
He was merely asked to do what he had chosen to set up in business to do...pull broken down cars...
What if that lady was your daughter and she had Cruz stickers all over her car ???
Would you really be so happy that an Obama supporter had refused to rescue her from a strange lonely road ???
You from the Church of We Don’t Know Jesus ???
I think a better response from the tow truck driver would have been to give them a tow, then use the ride to give them a nice long speech about the virtues of his candidate and the shortcomings of Mr. Sanders. Then, if the Sanders voter shot back at him, he could just say ‘Well, thanks but you can’t pay me enough to listen to that’ and leave the car back on the side of the road :P
I hope Trump trounces Hillary and will do my part to help make it happen, but I have no illusions about Trump; he can attract many crossover voters who dislike and/or distrust Hillary because he is non-threatening to many traditional Dem supporters (on racial/ethnic issues in particular, apparently).
