A new study this week re-opened old wounds from the 2016 Presidential election by saying that 12% of Bernie Sanders' primary supporters switch to Trump in the general election. However, it also pointed out that 12% of Republican primary voters switched to Hillary, making it a wash. But the news brought up, once again, the issue of who is to blame for the Democrat's loss / Republican's victory, so tell us below who YOU think is to blame for the election of Donald Trump. VOTE NOW!

A very interesting new report came out earlier this week, that showed that of the people who voted for Bernie Sanders in the primary for the 2016 election, 12% of them defected to Donald Trump for the presidential election instead of voting for Hilary Clinton.
The Hilary Clinton supporters, the establishment democrats, have used this to show that those Bernie Sanders people absolutely cost Hilary Clinton the 2016 election. However, if they would have read a little further into the report, they would have seen that 12% of republican primary voters flipped from Donald Trump to Hilary Clinton in that same election, so essentially it was a wash. Furthermore, the report also said that in 2008, 25% of Hilary Clinton Supporters voted for John McCain instead of Barrack Obama. Barrack Obama still won even after losing 25% of the Hilary Clinton Supporters, so it makes you wonder if that really is the case. But it has unfortunately once again, re-litigated the 2016 election and got people to start talking once again about why the democrats lost and why Donald Trump won.
While all the experts are running through their myriad reasons, we want to hear what you think. We want to know what our viewers, American voters actually think cost the democrats the election and gave Trump the victory. Was it Hilary Clinton's awful campaign? Was it Bernie Sander's supporters defecting? Was it Sanders himself? Was it James Comey? Was it Russia? Was it the people who actually voted for Donald Trump?
