(23,094 posts)33. Exactly!
How can anyone who truly supported Bernie even think about voting for Trump? I just don't get it. Bernie is left wing, anti-racist, pro-choice, pro LGBT rights, pro increasing the minimum wage, pro increasing taxes on the rich. The only thing in the world those 2 have in common as far as policy is anti-trade bills. Why would any of them do anything to help Trump win? Not voting, voting for someone else is just letting Trump win.
This leftist Bernie supporter is gladly supporting HRC as the alternative is totally unthinkable.
