US Uncut reports:
Some of the biggest pro-Bernie Sanders groups on Facebook were briefly taken down Monday evening in a targeted attack by Hillary Clinton supporters.
The groups Bernie Sanders Activists, Bernie Believers, BERNIE OR BUST, Bernie Sanders Revolutionaries, Bay Area for Bernie, Bernie Sanders 2016 — Ideas Welcome, Bernie Sanders is my HERO, and Bernie Sanders for President 2016 were all taken down in the attack. The pages in question were reported to be down for about three hours, from 9 p.m. to midnight Monday night.
Collectively, these groups are home to more than a quarter million Bernie Sanders supporters, and some have been in existence for nearly a year, having been launched shortly after the Vermont senator declared his intent to run for president in 2015.
The groups were targeted by online trolls, who posted pornographic images and reported the groups to Facebook admins.

The God Emperor has been pushing that the primaries are unfair and being stolen by the establishment in his speeches... That would resonate with Bernie and if he got a "very high position" in the God Emperor's cabinet (maybe veep, crazy as that might sound?) then he would win by a landslide.
The extremists freak about that proposal "they're class enemies" and all that rot. Well real politics is the art of the possible deal, and Trump needs to make a statement that he can make deals. Also lets be realistic about the religion thing, Trump isn't so hot with Bernie's demographic and that would help with press coverage. So imagine Bernie demands he set US/Israeli policy not Trump and maybe some other minor issue in addition, I donno education funding. Now does that get "the cause" further along than quitting and pouting? heck yeah, and he's a pro politician, he'd take that deal. Meanwhile Trump promotes himself as the deal maker. So he turns a blind eye to Isreal and throws more money down the rathole of higher education tuition, but in exchange he gets the college and jewish vote... he's a deal maker businessman, of course there is some deal he can work with. I can totally see it.
Hillary would get the BLM protestor vote and the feminist gray-purple haired cat lady vote and that's about it. Maybe the biggest defeat the D party has ever had? 60/40 popular vote for Trump? Dare I say 65/35?

Just saying "Trump should hire Sanders" isn't going to make it happen or make it even remotely possible.
I have a lot more respect for Sanders than to think that is even a possibility.
