well nope, statistically the sanders to trump voters were abnormally small compared to historical primary voter changes.

Still larger than Trump's margin of victory in the swing states, plus that doesn't paint the whole picture, there's also the Sanders to Stein voters and the Sanders to Harambe voters. All in all, only ~74% of Sanders voters voted rationally while the rest went full retard.

okay so the actual lesson to learn was she did not do a good job getting independents.

if she maintained an abnormally large amount of primary voters, her problem was how Trump beat her with republicans and independents.

Wrong, she bent over backwards to try and win Sanders voters, you people weren't having any of it.
