Republican Donald Trump’s presidential campaign is planning its next coup: vying for the votes of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) supporters who say they won’t back Hillary Clinton in a general election.
“You have two candidates in Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders which have reignited a group of people who have been disenfranchised and disappointed with the way Washington, D.C. and career politicians have run the country,” campaign manager Corey Lewandowski told CNN on Friday.
“Bernie Sanders has large crowds – not as large as Mr. Trump’s, but large crowds – and so there is a level of excitement there for people about his messaging and we will bring those people in,” he also said.
Trump has long claimed his ability to garner support from Democrats and independents, but a recent poll found just 13 percent of Democratic-leaning voters who support Sanders have a favorable view of the outspoken billionaire.
With all ten thousand of them in his pocket, his victory is assured.
Who the hell are those 13 percent???
Makes sense. They’re a lot alike. Both male. Both shout a lot. Both bald (although only one admits it). And… and…

From this independent dedicated voter who has strong feelings for his country:
NO FRIGGING WAY trump. You would be the last person I would vote for. I’ve posted before that you are the worst candidate for President in the 12 presidential elections I have voted in. Please, Donne, go back to fooling around with your hotels, your casinos, and doing deals with China. Leave the country to those skilled in governing.

Have I made it clear I’m not voting for Trump?
He’ll get support from many in the rust belt. This AFL-CIO supported study says as much as 1 in 4 Democrats.
