Good, let Trump run 3rd party with Bernie as his vp and tell the two party system to fuck off.

I was hoping for Trump/Cruz, but I would take Trump/Sanders, I think. No real power for the VP unless PotUS dies.

Trump can achieve the same outcome as Bernie but he will do it in a way that makes sense. They at least agree on trade.

Can you imagine the arguments in the oval office? lol
Bern: "Let's give free health care to everyone!"
Don: "Who is going to pay for it?"
Bern: "Wall street taxes"
Don: "But that has nothing to do with health care."
Bern: "But they make too much money."
Don: "My argument still stands. Totally unrelated businesses. Stay focused old man."
Under breath Don mumbles.. "mur mur fired.."

Trump has supported single payer healthcare in the past, they probably would agree with each other eventually

I'd vote for them but it 100% would never happen.
I'm hoping that Trump and Bernie both run as independents, and both major parties get ripped apart in the process.

I'd love that to happen.
