For a few reasons:

1. Trade. NAFTA was the cause of the decline in the Midwest and New York. Bernie and Trump were against it.

2. Trustworthy. Benghazi and the email scandal are only two examples from many.

3. Immigration. Hillary wants to bring Syrian refugees in, but what happened in Paris and Brussels? Caused by refugees. And illegals coming in easily with no border at all is astonishing.

4. Business. Trump has proven he can make money and I think he would better than Hillary.

I went to the Trump rally today in Poughkeepsie. Not to protest, but because I went with a friend. I have a video of the whole thing I will upload to the thread later. I can't vote Trump in the primary and will definately vote Bernie, but in a Clinton vs Trump GE which it is likely to be, I am voting for Trump. In a Bernie vs Trump, I am still probably going to vote Bernie.

I totally agree with you.

I have changed my party affiliation and I will be voting for Bernie Sanders in California. I think the most likely scenario will be Trump vs Hillary Clinton, I will go with Trump in general election.

Looking forward to watch your video by the way.

The video will be up in under 10 minutes. I am just uploading it from my phone to my computer. The quality is OK and you can't really see Trump a lot (you can see him a little) because I got stuck behind a tall guy.

Hillary vs Cruz? Undecided on that one but if I had to decide right now, Cruz.

Cruz, like Sanders, voted No on NDAA. (Very) unlikely Hillary would.

That would be the worst outcome imaginable. That would even top Bush-Kerry.
