Response to the argument that "Sanders voters" put Trump in office.

4. Ken the Newsweek article is about the --minority-- of Sanders voters who did not vote Dem in the GE

You make excellent points but I do not like the framing I'm seeing from some that it is an article about "Sanders voters"

It is an article about a minority.

It is not an article about you, me, or our fellow Sanders supporters

Nor is it an article about Bernie. Or Bernie's campaign.

"There's no evidence, and there is no reason to surmise, that the Sanders campaign did anything to cause these voters to support Trump in the fall, or that that campaign wished for those voters to do so. "

That is not being said.

I am sure you remember that Trump made lots of appeals to disenchanted Bernie voters. He appropriated language and phrasing from Bernie in an attempt to pick up Bernie or Buster's votes. You also know about Russian efforts to flood pro-Bernie sites with anti-Clinton spam.

Those were the instigators of the campaign to convince BoB's to vote for Trump. I have no idea if those efforts convinced anyone or not.
