2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: I've been registered as a Dem for 26 years... [View all]"Hillary has treated Bernie kindly and with kid gloves"...
As Barney Frank once said, "On what planet do you spend most of your time?"
If there's a Democrat who Trump hits with a first-round KO, it's Hillary.
Her weaknesses play directly to Trump's strengths. He will dredge up The Rose Law Firm, Whitewater, Travelgate, Vince Foster, Benghazi, E-mails...and that's before getting to REAL stuff. He'll drag it into the tabloids, where he lives.
And once you get a Democrat off the issues, they LOSE.
What has he got to hit Bernie with? Socialism? Please do!
He paints Bernie as Lenin, Bernie counters with FDR, and points out the awful things Democratic Socialism has done:
-Social Security
-Minimum Wage
-Medicare
AKA...
ISSUES!
Trump attacking Bernie puts the campaign right in Bernie's wheelhouse.
