People depict him as some sort of anti-establishment candidate. Just read the description of one of his books. He tries to appeal to people that are skeptical of the government by talking about lobbyists dictating our laws and him shaking up the establishment. That being said, his "solutions" are very statist in nature and he's not much of a free market candidate.

Sanders Trump crossover supporter. The biggest issue with politics is legal bribery where certain industries like Wall Street contribute millions to both Hillary Clinton and Ted Cruz's campaign. Sanders and Trump understand that this is a broken system and are fighting for campaign finance reform.

  • Campaign Finance Reform: Doesn't have any special interests groups funding him unlike the other candidates besides Sanders. Has called for all candidates to return the money they're getting back to Super PACs and to remove special interest groups from our election process, including the ban of super PACs.

  • Foreign Policy: No more nation building in the Middle East. He was also calling the Iraq War a mistake way before it was viewed positively to do so. Interested in investing in our crumbling infrastructure instead.

  • Non-interventionist based foreign policy. (e.g. if it is in our interest to let Putin bomb ISIS, so be it, instead of threatening to shoot Russian planes down). Calls for U.S. to stop this hostility against Russia with NATO.

  • Economy: Focus on American middle class jobs. Protectionist and won't allow favorable economic policies that encourage companies to ditch operations in the U.S. to move to China, Mexico for cheap labor. Desire to put America labor first in trade deals instead of pure Wall Street globalism that exploits third world workers abroad and destroys domestic jobs.

  • He's genuinely against TPP, saying the U.S. will lose even more middle class jobs outside of manufacturing to other Asian countries working for pennies on the dollar. Has been critical of our economic policies screwing over Main Street for decades.

  • Testified against Reaganomics, saying it would negatively hurt the Middle and Lower classes. Not only is he very knowledgable in economics and investment, but the tax structure he offers up back in 91' seems relevant even today to help alleviate some of the complaints we have about 1%'ers and wall street.

  • Education: Doesn't want the government charging interest on student loans: "That’s probably one of the only things the government shouldn’t make money off. I think it’s terrible that one of the only profit centers we have is student loans". Open to student loan
    forgiveness programs.

  • Wants complete education reform to let our graduates be competitive in a global market. He cites that we spend the most per student but have the worst results of any developed country.

  • Marijuana: Wants to allow states to legalize marijuana: "Marijuana is such a big thing. I think medical should happen - right? Don't we agree? I think so. And then I really believe we should leave it up to the states."

  • Healthcare: Likes universal healthcare, is open to replacing America's broken system with something similar to Canada by gradually expanding Medicare. In the short term, will increase bidding competition to lower insurance costs.

  • Social Issues: Moderate on social issues (e.g. affirmative action, women's health, gay rights). Socially liberal from life experience as Democrat in New York.

  • Diversity: he employed women in leadership roles before it was popular to do that. And he did it in the construction industry of all places.

  • Immigration He has absolutely nothing against legal immigration, he's encouraged it many times. His grandparents are immigrants, his wife is an immigrant, several of his closest business partners in New York are immigrants. He is against uncontrolled, illegal immigration because it gives cheap labor to exploitative international corporations and stagnates lower class wages and lowers employment of existing U.S. citizens.

  • Successful businessman and job creator, knows how to manage money, how to invest for the future. Always underbudget and ahead of schedule, especially with the campaign. He spent the least amount of money in the political race of any candidate and has the best results. He makes outlandish comments time to time for free press, but through the attention, people look into his actual stances like from his campaign book, Crippled America.

  • Nonpartisan. Has been both a Democrat and Republican. Proven negotiator that can work with both parties to get things done.

  • Not afraid to call out corrupt polticians for puppeting for special interests, especially the Koch Brothers

> Neither candidate delves into serious substance about how their ideas will be implemented, instead resorting to populist (and in Trump's case, nationalist) talking points.

Actually, Trump has a whole book detailing how he's going to implement his ideas.

It could be some sick joke where you pay your $2 and get a remaindered copy of "Crippled America" by D. Trump.
