“Republicans for Sanders” is a Growing Group: Jeb Bush Shows Class and Poses with Them

While making his way to a Republican leadership conference this Saturday, Jeb Bush encountered a group of young Republicans adorned with “Republicans for Bernie Sanders” shirts. Jeb, in a moment of class and good nature, posed for a photo with the young political activists.

I smell horse shit, Clueless Jeb got punked. I think the jackets came off when they were posed for the pic.

4. I'm thinking the same thing.

I wonder if they're even Republicans.

This reminds me of another incident where some people fooled a politician into posing behind a sign. Unfortunately I can't remember who it was or what the sign said.

3. I guess it's a joke

I suppose they're cheering for Sanders because they think he'll be easier to defeat than Clinton. On the other hand, the progressive movement over 100 years ago involved many Republicans, so maybe they're thinking along those lines.

6. There are two possibilities as I see it, either these young people are Democratic Sanders supporters

Not actually Republicans, just trolling.

Or they are Republicans who would much rather face Sanders over Clinton.

Given their ages, I would tend to think the latter. I would place the odds that these are formerly hardcore Republicans who had their hearts transformed by Bernie's message at somewhere approaching zero.
