Quote:The thing that has confused me this entire cycle is where the Hillary supporters are, In my town I have seen Cruz, Kasich, Trump, Sanders signs but I have yet to see a Clinton sign.  On my Facebook I can point out a double digit Trump supporters and probably triple digit Sanders supporters yet not a single Hillary supporter.  It just baffles me the "leading" democratic candidate has virtually no support that I can see locally or on my social media.

 

This is what got me to raise the question.  It's no secret that I don't support either democrat and I don't support Trump at all.  The "loudest" supporters on the democrat side as well as the majority vote seems to be all about Bernie Sanders, yet Hillary is in the lead.  Then you have apparent Bernie Sanders supporters "protesting" republican functions, most specifically Donald Trump.

 

In the news it's all about the "republican party in disarray" yet it looks like the opposite to me.  The republican establishment has made it more-than-clear that they want to block Donald Trump from getting the nomination.  It's very likely that he won't get said nomination and the party will enter a brokered convention.  That's what is getting all of the media right now.

 

The question is, what about the democrat party?  If they do "succeed" in bringing Trump down, do they really think that Hillary is going to be the answer?  What it's all looking like to me is that the establishment of both parties are playing one another.  The "fringe" part of the republican part of the party (Donald Trump) is in danger of falling apart.  The republicans are in a bind, because the last hope that they had is not in the race, therefor they are betting on a brokered convention.  Once that happens, it's pretty much the end of Donald Trump.

 

On the democrat side, the "anti-Trump" Bernie Sanders supporters are focusing too much on Trump, and they're handing the nomination coronation to Hillary Clinton.

 

This is just my opinion, but I do think that the general election is going to be between two candidates that were not the most popular in the primaries.  the democrats are in the process of "stealing" the nomination right now, and the republicans are going to be shown as "stealing" it during the convention.  The only way that differs is if a republican nominee wins outright.  I don't see it happening.
