Most of the similarities between Trump and Sanders presumably are reflections of them in their roles as populist leaders, sharing converging attitudes and appealing to the same kinds of people. Inevitably they must frequently behave the same.

Yet I’ve never gotten used to these flashes of awareness that keep striking bizarre and wrong — that they are so different and yet the similarities keep flashing danger, sometimes when you least expect them, like brief reflections of the other from mirrors as they pass.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
