    Consider if the roles were reversed.

    i won’t consider any of that, because it’s completely divorced from reality

      I think you have your head in the sand.

      In a rational world this would completely shatter his chances for any presidential nomination from a major party (or probably the first indictment would)

      However, there are a good number of people who believe so firmly in trump that they’ll view this in exactly the same light as a left wing leader being arrested at a civil rights protest or admitting they smoked weed. To them this is a feather in his cap, it burnishes his credentials as being anti-establishment and proves whatever batshit conspiracy theories he’s spouting.

      I think democrats are too quick to overlook that risk and I think that’s dangerous.

      It isn’t really .

      .

      It’s a good point clumsily made.

      We all know that Bernie’s arguments have always been sincere and fact based. We know that Trumps are dishonest and held for his convenience, but the magas Don’t know or don’t care
