Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) admitted Wednesday that he is rooting for Donald Trump to win the Republican nomination.

During a CNN town-hall event, Sanders told moderator Anderson Cooper that he liked his odds against the real-estate mogul.

"Frankly, I'm prejudiced: I want Trump to win the Republican nomination," Sanders said. "I would love the opportunity to run against him. I think we'd win."

1. Sanders doesn't understand the people who he's trying to recruit to his revolution...

... other than one aspect of them.

I do NOT want him to run against Trump

2. I don't think Bernie cares what you want.

I know Hillary doesn't care what most of us want.

4. Yeap, or people like me... that's been kinda of obvious from the beginning and one of the reasons

... his 25 point spread in IA with people like me happened.

Super Tuesday will be fun

6. People like you? Okay, I doubt there really are many. The 25 point spread that turned into .2?

8. Yeap, this country has 40 million people like me... and that 25 point spread was exit polling

... data and not the difference between Sanders and Clinton.

You'll find out later and will also figure out why the people like me aren't going for Sanders in large numbers...

Your post oozes the reason...

11. Well, people like me aren't voting for Hillary but it has nothing to do with

obnoxious Hillary supporters on DU.

14. the exit polling was wrong, uponit771 or she wouldn't have 'won'

with 00000000000000.2%. Exit polling works like this half the time. People say they voted for X when they really voted for Y or Z. They are only a snapshot, not the real picture.

3. You want Republicans to win then? I hope it's Trump and Bernie too, Bernie is already wiping

the floor with Trump in every poll. Trump's support is marginal, but it's not Bernie who doesn't understand I think you don't get it. Yet, but you might. Doesn't matter, millions of Americans do and when they get to hear Sanders on the issues, many are instantly on board for what this country so badly needs, a real POLITICAL revolution. It has already begun, I hope you don't miss it.

5. No, I want Sanders vs Cruz ... not Trump, Trump will trample Sanders... if this isn't known

... then people haven't been paying attention to Trump.

They don't care about his bag of bad... he's anti establishment...

Someone who's been a part of the government for over 20 years is NOT the anti establishment candidate no matter who much his bubble wants to claim that mantle

7. You are wrong. The polls show Bernie would win. And Cruz is much more dangerous than Trump.

Cruz is an evil venomous snake.

10. The lie he told about Carson proves he's a bastard, but he's easily beatable bastard... fundy nuts

... support him not the GOP establishment or anti estblishment... he will get trounced in turn out numbers while Trump will turn out the most angry and motivated

[roguevalley]

15. Cruz wants to be king of the seven mountains (google it) and he's nuts.

he's also hated universally. Bernie wants to beat the idiot, the one who doesn't study enough to even have a plan. He beats Trump in polls from 5-19%

9. Bernie beats all of them, Trump by huge margins. So it doesn't matter which of them wins

If Bernie is the one they are facing, they ALL Lose. Every poll, when it's Bernie V any of them, they lose. Trump wants Hillary btw.

13. Does he beat Rubio? Not sure about that.

[Beacool]

12. I doubt that he'll get the chance.

Neither one will be the nominee.
