If the general election turns out to be Trump versus Clinton, I will vote for Trump. Both candidates are beholden to Wall Street but Clinton is an avowed globalist while Trump is at least talking as if he is pro-American. Whether he stays that way with his actions remains to be seen. If the general election turns out to be Trump versus Sanders, I may go with Sanders. How often do we see a presidential candidate that is not beholden to Wall Street?

My hot-buttons regarding elections are chronic liars and supporters of globalism over American citizens.
Again, Me too. At least Bernie is honest. At this point that supersedes any ideology.

It's just really frustrating to watch during town halls, debates and now speeches, her stealing his lines.

Is it that difficult to come up with her own message?
Because she is morphing into Bernie. See Saturday Night Live.

She won because she stole Bernie's lines. If she didn't steal Bernie's lines, she would have got less votes. (She knew this, that's why she stole.)
