Please define the revolution these two groups share. Don't forget, Trump is the current outsider fighting for the little guy. That is what those fools think. There are no similarities between the Cruz people outside of their convention and the Sanders people who will be outside of ours. Strange that you think you are sharing a revolution with them.
