And - that means 81% would vote for him!
Now let's see how many disenfranchised Democrats like myself or Bernie supporters will vote for Trump vs Hillary.

Exactly, 19% is less than who voted against Trump. That means most of those who voted against Trump would vote for him against Hillary. I can only imagine most Bernie voters would vote Trump... And the democrats better hope they aren't rigging the election for hillary because that would mean there is actually a majority voting Bernie who will go Trump, leaving Hillary with a total probably less than 25% in the general?

Reading is fundamental. 40% of Republicans would either stay home or vote for Hillary. That leaves 60% of Republicans voting for Trum p. Since Pubbies make up about a third of the electorate, that gives Trump < 20% of all voters. He'd have to get 50% of all Independents and Democrats to win the popular vote, which ain't happening.
If Trump wins the nod, a staggering 40% of Republicans would either stay home or vote for HRC in a general election. Ouch.
If even 25% of these Never Trump voters follow through on their threat, Trump's inevitable defeat would take on historic proportions.
We can play these number games: Poll: 20% of Dems would defect for Trump | TheHill - but it is really too soon to tell. Right now the two of them take stabs at each other; but it isn't out for blood until after the convention. VP picks can also alter the numbers; let's wait and see what happens.

Well both Arizona and NY State now have law suits coming up for voter fraud and Colorado is having the same situation with the Republican delegates. Establishment will go to any means to make sure their candidate and only their candidate get elected. Now I know we'll hve Hillary and Cruz / Kasich supporters coming on saying the Trumpetts and Bernie lovers are only whinig and grasping at straws but 10:1 - they would be doing the same thing if the establishment candidate was having the same issues.

Math is fundamental, too. The Republicans make up 1/3 of the electorate. Democrats and Independents make up 2/3 of the electorate. The 60% of Republicans who would vote for Trump equals only about 20% of the total electorate. Trump would then need to get about half of all the Independents and Democrats, and that's not happening. Sanders voters turning to Trump in any significant number is simply a Trumplet wet dream because the two groups of voters have little if anything in common.
