Donald vs Bernie

Even as Bernie's supporters, evidently with his approval, attack those of Donald and do their best to shut down his rallies, all the while denouncing Trump as a fascist, a certain fungibility of their supporters emerges.

Supporters of The Donald have so far taken no smallest step toward anything resembling tit-for-tat, so that's not it, however.

Not the slightest hint has emerged of any effort on their part to shut down or even annoy people at Bernie's rallies, or anyone else's.

Still, and of course, all his opponents and the for once well-dubbed lame stream news media are unanimous that the political violence directed at Trump and his supporters is really all his and their fault, and the attackers are deserving of no blame.

Anyway, as to that fungibility, we have this.

The Bernie Sanders voters who would vote for Trump over Clinton

This is not the first time someone has suggested Bernie voters might flip to Trump - though perhaps not those doing their damnedest to shut down his rallies.

With ethnic cleansing off the table, you have to wonder how many Trump supporters would vote for Bernie rather than any free trade, small government, Medicare and Social Security slashing, open borders Republican.

White working class Democrats driven into his open arms by the race-politics that continues to be the most baneful affliction of our republic.
