I don't exactly follow what people would call the mainstream media closely, but what I was exposed to mentioned all of these things (or at least the fact that she was accused of them), while their coverage of Trump that I saw consisted solely of unedited airing of him speaking.

I sincerely don't understand the claims that the coverage was biased against Trump. If anything, it seemed to me that they were personally against him but in response to that they overcompensated and skewed the coverage too far in his direction.

The media bent themselves into some really odd shapes to make Trump's continuous string of gaffes appear somehow "normal".

MSM gave ample coverage to the most important story of all - Comey's political move on emails a week before election. It was pasted in huge headlines across all mainstream media outlets. And that turned out to be a dud at the end, but the damage was done. So not sure what you are expecting.

Sanders supporter who voted for Trump because of disdain for the Democrats and party corruption. For example, super delegates flipping states for HRC. Donna Brazile's shenanigans, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Wall Street speeches, Clinton Foundation. Trump(and Bernie) created a consciousness/awakening in the country about the how the political system has been captured by the donor class and corporate interests. Hopefully, the Democratic party will purge itself and return to being the peoples party. If not we need a third party direct democracy organization driven by open source software and forums like HN which hold online debates and crowd source the decisions made by politicians.

> Sanders supporter who voted for Trump

There's an undeniable indicator of an unsound mind right there. The correlation in policy goals between Sanders and Clinton was probably about 0.8, but you went with the guy at 0.1.

The only noticeable commonality between Sanders and Trump is that they're both white males, which I suspect is a significant reason for your absurd trajectory of political preference (whether you'll admit that to yourself or not).

whats the correlation between any policy goal during a campaign and what actually happens? Insiders from both political parties didn't want Trump and didn't want Bernie. Trump has kind of upended both political parties. A good thing.
