Hello, President Trump.

I'll take that bet. How much?

I see what you're doing here.

Head to head hypotheticals = popularity polls?

Is that the argument here?

I don't recall using the term "popularity polls".

I guess if that's how the cookie crumbles. We've allowed the two party system to monopolized our political system, allowed them to write laws effective at keeping out other candidates or parties, other choices that would be better for the country, so this is what we have. It is what it is. A shit taco.

A choice between a buffoon with dangerous ideas or a representative of the 1% who has no intention of rocking that boat. Out of 300+ million people. This is the will of the D and R leadership. To limit our choices. And we grant our approval as a people every election in which we vote for the lessor of two evils because they are the only choices we've been allowed in our "democratic" society. Neither choice represents me or my interests.

Trump would be an unfortunate winner, but he can't really do much damage unless he has the help of the republicans and democrats both. And TBH, among the shittier things our government has done the past few decades, the D's and R's both have worked in tandem to make them happen.

What Bob is alluding to is that Bernie is only leading in popularity (polls),whereas Hillary in votes cast in the primary.

I voted for Bernie in the primary but don't think I'd write him in.

I don't even know if I'd vote for him over Hill or Trump in the general if he were able to launch a 3rd party.
