I have to admit I found that rather entertaining.

 

A lot of late night hosts do segments like that. Talk to people on the street about something with a certain spin, get them to agree with you, and then make them realize they have no idea what they are talking about.

 

It makes for great comedy. Not sure a 3 minute video makes for much else though.

You’re right about it being comedic.  It’s always funny to watch the hypocrisy.  It’s also sad, and a great testament to the mental state of the liberals who responded to the Bernie trick.  It’s no wonder our country is such a hot mess politically.

    As long as people can acknowledge the concept of video editing, it's harmless I guess. The understanding should be that these are not usually a random sampling of people, they take the ones that work "best" for the video.

  I'm not sure college students are the best group to ask about tax reform really. Until you are actually working, paying taxes, raising kids, buying a house, get health coverage etc., you may not have thought much or have a great understanding of who benefits and who is hurt by Trumps proposed plan.

 

   Without understanding the principles, these kids are reacting to a concept- that Trump is out to screw them over and Sanders would have had there backs. If Trumps plan passes, they'll actually get to see half of that equation in action. What would be interesting is to see how they respond to this question down the road.
