Are you or anyone you know planning to vote for Trump if Hillary is not the nominee?

[Beaverhausen]

Just wondering.

I will happily vote for Bernie if he is the nominee.

[JustAnotherGen]

1. Hell to the no!

[Bleacher Creature]

5. You took my answer!!!!

[JustAnotherGen]

38. I also won't sit home in "protest"!

Yeah - I'm a black woman - we vote.

It's for one of my inner circle of women. We've been friends since high school - 28 years. It's for Anne and her wife.

It's for my dad's brothers and sisters young and old he left behind when he died - think Wesley Clarke, and and Tammy Duckworth and thousands of Iraq and Iran vets.

It's for poor rural and inner city kids.

It's for my niece whose mother is Latina and who due to appearance experiences America as a Latina.

It's for all the small business owners we are friends with.

It's for people who travel outside of the US.

It's for the immigrant who takes a chance on America.

It's for every black family red lined for generations.

[Thinkingabout]

2. Trump and Cruz would be the last two people I would ever vote. Totally unacceptable.

[spooky3]

20. agree

[NastyRiffraff]

3. Of course not

I wouldn't be happy about voting for Bernie, but I would do it. I'd never EVER vote for Trump or Cruz.

[gwheezie]

4. I don't know any idiots, so no

I avoid them, I know they must be out there but at the 1st hint of idiocy, I shun them.

[leftofcool]

6. No fucking way!

[bluestateguy]

7. I would vote (but not campaign for) Bernie if he was the nominee

nt

[Agnosticsherbet]

8. I will vote for the Democratic Party nominee in the General Election.

Anyone who votes for Trump wants a racist, misogynist for President.

I am not one of those.

[mercuryblues]

9. no only no

but OH HELL NO!

People I know realize that any republicon in the WH would be a horror. They care for their fellow human more than that.

[sarae]

10. No way.

I have no problem saying I'll vote for Bernie if he's the nominee.

[Kath1]

22. I;d rather go with Bernie....

than any Republican. And Trump and Cruz are the worst!

[Laffy Kat]

11. ANYONE who cares about this country...

Will vote for the Democratic nominee. It's not complicated.

[wildeyed]

12. HAHAHAHA!

I would rather roll in dog shit than vote for Trump or Cruz. Bernie Sanders is my 2nd choice but he IS my second choice. And I will honor the will of the majority of Democrats. I think that is the deal I signed on for. I support who I like in the primary, but once it is decided, I fight for the candidate who got the most votes, bow to the majority will. I don't do salty and bitch-assed, at least not for more than a week or two.

[complain jane]

32. LOL "I would rather roll in dog shit..."

That was hilarious.

[MFM008]

13. lets see.

no.

[Cha]

35. lol Only idiots would that. Idiots who don't care about the Planet.. only their own little

hurt feefees.

[stonecutter357]

14. Ralph Nader has a better chance of getting my vote!

[quickesst]

15. I will vote for the Democratic nominee....

...period. I do believe however, that there are people on this board who will be voting for Trump no matter who the Democratic nominee is. Trolls

[Stuckinthebush]

16. No because we aren't dumbasses

And idiots

Only idiots won't support the eventual dem nominee. Idiots, I say

[Kaleva]

17. Nope

If Bernie is the nominee, I'll be voting for him.

[Princess Turandot]

18. No. No. No.

Trump? At least Sanders understand the government/legislative process, whether he successfully navigates it or not.

[DesertFlower]

19. no. nt

[Kath1]

21. Hell, no!

No way. Ever.

[DemonGoddess]

23. Nope.

NOWAYINHELL.

[otohara]

24. Nope

[MarianJack]

25. I wouldn't vote for Donald Rump...

...if he were running unopposed!

😰PEACE!

[Renew Deal]

26. I know a Trump supporter, but he is a republican and would never vote for a Democrat

[egalitegirl]

27. I know such people

I will not vote for Trump but I know three people who had no interest in politics until last year who told me they will vote for Bernie but will switch to Trump if he is not the nominee.

I also know two people on the other side who are Trump supporters who have promised to vote for Bernie if the Republican establishment takes away the nomination from Trump. The interesting part is that both the Republicans have keenly followed politics for many years.

[NurseJackie]

28. The Bernie supporters I know are mature, reasonable ...

... rational and intelligent people and will vote for the party's nominee ... UNLIKE many we see here.

DU is not like the real world. I do believe the ones who say they're not going to vote, it that they'll vote for Donald. I just don't care.

There aren't enough of them to make a difference.

As Susan Sarandon says ... fuck them!

[complain jane]

33. Good point about the board not reflecting the real world

None of the Democrats I know come to this board.

[xmas74]

29. No

But I do know someone who said she and her husband will vote Trump if Sanders isn't the nom. They've had fits about closed primaries, calling them illegal. When I pointed out that Missouri wasn't closed, opened at 6 am and closed at 7pm and that I was in and out in five minutes (same town) and didn't understand why they didn't vote in the primary they became angry. She's a stay at home mom and her kids are in school, he owns a business in his home. She's never bothered voting before, he was a Paulite. She's for whomever he says.

Other Sanders fans have said they understand the importance and will vote Clinton in the GE.

[ladym55]

30. That would be a no

I will go to the mat for the Democratic nominee--the other option scares the bejeesus out of me.

[complain jane]

31. Of course not.

I will happily vote for Bernie if he is the nominee as well.

[Pika78]

34. Aw hells no!

I would go stand in line in the pouring rain to vote for the Democratic candidate--even if it's Bernie--rather than sit by and let those psychopaths on the Republican ticket advance one iota. It is the height of selfishness to put one's own bruised ego above the good of the entire country. Incredible how some people's moral compass points due south while they're convinced it's the opposite.

[Surya Gayatri]

36. Not even under duress, on this ingenious apparatus of pain...

I no longer like or respect St. Bernardo, but I'd vote for him in a heart beat over any of the maniacs on the right.

[BlueMTexpat]

37. Absolutely, positively, and without question

NOT!!!!!! A thousand-plus times NOT! NEVER. EVER.

I will vote for whoever is the Dem nominee. If it's Bernie (the only alternative to Hillary at this point), I'll vote for him.

If by some incredible circumstance, another candidate not currently in the running is selected in a contested convention, I will support whoever that person is. In such a far-fetched scenario, my personal preference would be for Martin O'Malley.

The difference is that I would vote joyfully for MOM - not as joyfully for Bernie - because I know that MOM is a lifelong Dem and can actually accomplish something of what he proposes, as he has clearly demonstrated in his past political positions.

Even though I am fully disillusioned with Bernie right now, I still believe that his heart may be in the right place at bottom. But I also fear that he is almost as much of a loose cannon in his way as Trump himself.

[beachbum bob]

39. nope...no one I know but, I do know conservatives that will vote for hillary

they are disgusted with trump, cruz...and media pushing them

[Tarc]

40. Other than an oddball libertarian coworker who will vote for either Trump or Sanders

but no one else, I know of no other crossovers in my social circles, so. The racism and xenophobia rules any GOP vote straight out.

[Lyric]

41. Of course not. What kind of psychotic mental case would vote for either of them???

Any vote or non-vote that isn't cast for the Democratic nominee is basically a boost for the right-wing.

Sometimes I feel like a certain small subset of pissy BS supporters WANTS the Repubs to win if Bernie isn't nominated. They see it as "punishment" for we minorities who failed to bow down to the will and whims of the liberal white male bloc. If they can't have Bernie, then they are just FINE with women losing reproductive choice, poor people losing food stamps, gays losing marriage rights, etc.

Does anyone else feel that "punishment" vibe from part of the Bernie crowd? A small part, yes, but still...it's freaking creepy.

[riversedge]

42. of course not.

[SharonClark]

43. Hell NO!
