It can work both ways [View all]

Many of us have seen posts here "predicting" that if Hillary is the nominee, "many have said that they will not support HRC if nominated" (which I consider close to blackmail..)

Recently we've heard that Sanders is trying to lure Trump supporters. After all, they, like Sanders, do not trust the "status quo ."

Thus, I wonder whether, if the general elections put Hillary, vs. Trump, whether many former Sanders supporters would vote for Trump.

I have been concerned that, like in 1968, many liberals would just stay home. But now the danger is bigger.
