Well, if he is, you will only have trump to blame.

Absolutely, and I also know he wouldn't sell out his agenda and stop pushing for it the second he got elected like every other Dem candidate absolutely would. No fundamental change happens overnight or is easy to do. That doesn't mean just sit back and accept the turd sandwich that the DNC keeps trying to shove down people's throats over and over again.

Oh we can most definitely blame the Democratic party for not putting up a candidate as far out there as Bernie is. Not everything on every side of an issue is Trump's fault, Tom.

With this economy, the incumbent should win in a landslide against any opponent. So, if he loses, I'm predicting that it would be self-inflicted. That's all.

For the sake of the country I hope we don't never find out. Bernie and his ilk feel more government is the solution for the issues that government created in the first place. Nothing is free. There is a cost to everything and that cost goes higher the more our government becomes involved.

no, whoever wins the election will likely have large coattails, and the congress has shown repeatedly they will pass legislation to support an agenda at the expense of reason, law or constitutional issues.

Bernie with an in-tow congress could do substantial damage in a short period. Look at how they got Obamacare passed, and expand the damage 10 fold.

IMO, no. Independents don't want a socialist.
