    If Sanders wins, his extreme policy suggestions probably wouldn’t go through. However he could turn more people socialist which isn’t good for anyone, even the socialists. He might not be the one to bring it down but he could start it. Someone like an AOC, could take the ball and really end life as we know it in the guise how great life would be if no one had to pay for anything. It’s about preventing the conversion of dumb people who will vote in more socialists promising them wonderful carefree lives of plenty, all on the backs of the so called rich.

    Ignorant people don’t study history.
    Ignorant people think we owe all of humanity.
    ignorant people think everyone deserves a higher education even when they can barely get through high school.
    Ignorant people think everything is free.
    Ignorant people think importing failed cultures will make us better. It only brings the majority down.
    Ignorant people fail to understand why some countries historically fail decade after decade.

    Most folks on the left oppose any move made by the administration to enforce our borders while stating they aren't for open borders when all of a sudden the truth blasts out. This is where the denial phase ends and the rationalization stage begins. It's another non started as far as the average voter is concerned.

    Ignorant people often don't learn until they live through it (ask any Venezuelan who managed to migrate to the U.S. over the last 10-15 years). They voted for it, until the "reality" set in. Then saw the devastating consequences of their votes.

    You don't think that the same media who trash Trump daily wouldn't suddenly start telling some truths about the failed economics of Socialism? Perhaps not....but I speculate that they would do so.

    On "importing failed cultures" - Sanders is a lot more for closed-borders than people think. I don't know what he is proposing this year on immigration to win the nomination, but he has historically been opposed to having cheap labor flow across the border and competing with low-skilled union workers. I think he would pivot back to what he believes is correct....and that would cause a rift in the populist-Socialist base here.
