He had the dignity to win over red-state conservatives. The older crowd would have struggled to vote for Trump with him as an alternative. Clinton, though...

It's so perfect. It's like a fairy tale, in a way. The nation had a chance to pick a good and virtuous man for President, but because of the crooked systems in place, they never truly had the opportunity.

I'm telling you, I know a lot of Conservatives and Trump was at best a bitter pill to swallow. They hated Obama for various, largely shallow reasons, but Trump didn't really appeal. They would have voted for anyone who would have thrown a bone towards the mining industry. Sanders had a blue-collar support base at home, he could have just suggested he'd be open to mining for coal again and he'd have won Wyoming.
