Suppose Sanders and Trump do end up debating before the California primary and it gets a fairly decent audience and news coverage. I'm assuming it's not going to be much of a love fest and there will be quite a lot of yelling and bickering on both sides, likely with a clear winner and a clear loser. Will actually listening to Donald Trump differentiate himself from Bernie and probably call him a good number of insults, might it dissuade a few of the Bernie or Bust people who see Trump as a lesser evil than Clinton?

On the flip side, might Trump be extra nice to Bernie to try to pull his supporters over? Would it work?

I imagine Trump would probably fake a stroke before agreeing to an extra one-on-one debate, but if his ego is really powerful enough for him to think he can do this, I'm all ears.

First of all, there's no chance Trump will be "extra nice" to Bernie in a calculated attempt to pull his supporters over, because the first time he gets hit by Bernie he will immediately get butthurt and uncontrollably go for the jugular.

To your other question, no, and no.  Those people are statistical noise rather than a major movement of people that actually exist, despite what alarmism you might here on this site.
