13364063, There were clear dog whistles Trump was using at rallies

that fed on Islamophobia, xenophobia, racism, misogyny, etc.

Trump's embrace of the alt-right, the nazis, the rednecks armed to the teeth, were very purposeful and active asks. 'Join me if you are sick of the miscegenation of our White America,' he said.

Are you really going to compare these dog whistles to (and I'm really doing you a favor by making this comparison for you) Bernie saying his supporters are 'the worst nightmare' of Trump and the billionaire class?

Is it possible that the things plaguing the more aggressive and immature fringes of his supporters plague young (white) men in general these days? Alienation, hours on the internet or gaming, depression, a feeling of disenfranchisement or apprehensiveness about their future?

This Trump supporter comparison is just lazy, unless you really want to pick apart the demographics and ask what the differences and similarities are.
