Bernie or Trump?

If the 2020 Presidential election came down to either Bernie Sanders or Donald Trump, and you had to vote for one or the other, who would you vote for?

...just curious...

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

But because of the TOS, if anyone here actually would, they are not allowed to say so.

If sanders is not the Democratic Party nominee, then I will not support him

I doubt that sanders will be the nominee. There re a large number of real Democrats who have long memories who have long memories. It appears that sanders campaign has faded

And you can substitute ANY Democrat currently running and get the same answer.

Why even ask?

However, should this remotely hypothetical situation arise, I will absolutely hold my nose and vote for Bernie.

On edit: I wish this was the case with the 12% of Bernie supporters who voted for Trump in '16.

This is a Democratic, left wing leaning progressive site - anyone here who would vote for drumpf should leave.

I don't like Bernie, I would never vote for him in the primary. However, in the general, if it's between Russia's criminal and a disloyal Bernie, I'll take the unliked D (of convenience) over the traitorous orange one any day.

He is not my top choice but if he gets the nomination, I will volunteer for the campaign, donate money and happily vote for him.

Any of the democratic nominees vs trump is an easy choice. I would vote for a cat, a dog or a turkey sandwich as president over Trump
