How anybody can cite polls is beyond me. We just saw a stunning refutation of polling less than a week ago.
I keep saying this, because it is true: Trump did not attack Bernie, because he was wooing Bernie supporters knowing that they were angry. Had Bernie won the nomination, the GOP would have been locked and loaded with BS about Bernie being a Jew and a socialist and a limousine liberal and a wealthy hypocrite with a wife who helped bring down a college and received a golden parachute in return. And so on and so forth. You think the people that made emailing look like a crime couldn't have done a hatchet job on Sanders?
Or do you think the GOP would have said, Oh, Sanders is so groovy let's just sit back and let him beat us. lol
The people who said they would vote for Sanders over Trump barely knew who Sanders was at the time and would have been easily pulled away from him once they were "informed" of his many "flaws".
EDIT: my point is not that Sanders could not possibly have beaten Trump. Heck, I voted for Sanders in the primary.
My point is that we will never know. Hindsight is 20/20 and bringing up Bernie Sanders for four years is nothing more than mental masturbation.
