This only cross over appeal I’m observing is from blue dog or blue collar type typical Dems..
I may be in a unique situation as I currently live in the Madison WI area - but all the Sanders people I know and see are your typical walleyed barking moonbat lefties...
There’s no cross over there.. Just insanity, communism, political correctness and self loathing...
They are both populists.....both rage against the system.....there’s a lot of Bernie followers who aren’t that smart - and they’ll be emotionally attracted to the big personalities on either side. They agree on tariffs it would seem. They are both all about using government to get things done...even if some of the things they want done are different.
Don’t kid yourself.
At least some Democrats will vote for Sanders purely as the alternative to Mrs. Bill. They may well go for Trump or even Cruz. Even my old friend the UF prof has guardedly expressed some misgivings about the Clinton woman. In the past he has been a pretty accurate bellwether of the Democrat vote. He seems to see Trump as a dictator who could be nudged to socialism as the practical method of keeping control. I really don’t know how that would work out in the voting booth.
