At first very similar to Trump's in that there would be massive shock over the fact that he won, even within his own party. I still remember the look on Mcconnell's the day after Trump won, he was just as shocked as everyone else and seemed to not know what to expect. I think high level dems would react the same way. Also conservatives and the GOP would react with outright terror and anger, similarly to how those on the left acted when Trump won.
The stock market would probably react badly since Sanders is seen as being very hostile towards the rich and hostile towards consumerism as a whole. How long such a reaction would last is anyone's guess.
I think on a global scale there would be surprise and also relief, but I think that would come more from Trump no longer being President than Sanders himself.
After a while things would settle down and Sanders would probably get frustrated similarly to how Trump has been frustrated, because in both their cases there will be congressional chamber that is run by the opposition party, and so Sanders probably wouldn't be able to get a whole lot done as far as things like healthcare and tax code.
Also you'd see an increase in the strength of the various safety nets that we have in this country. Probably a massive decrease in military operations and things like drone strikes.

TBF, Trump had two years of a completely Republican controlled government, he just couldn't sway his own party to fall inline with his wishes. eg it was Republicans that blocked his wall funding budget and the flat-out repeal of the ACA.

The full repeal failed because of a pile of crap named John McCain

Yeah, I know. I'm referring to the last couple years of Trump's presidency because it's near impossible for the dems to win the senate this year, so that will remain in the hands of republicans thus making it difficult for Sanders to pass much legislation.
I think if the dems did have control of the government Sanders would still have issues passing a lot of the stuff he wants because there are still some blue dog democrats in the senate, and moderates wouldn't be on board with some of the sweeping massive changes Sanders would propose.

Do you think Sanders has a good chance chance at winning the nom or are they going to screw him with the super delegates during the contested convention

Also Sanders isn’t some unifier. He’s very angry and decisive. I could argue as much as Trump is. He was very hostile to Hillary Clinton and now Warren.
Not true at all.
He campaigned a ton for Clinton after she was the nominee and now SHE'S the one talking shit about him.
Warren seems to be the one to me who is acting chicken shit towards Sanders at the moment by blabbing about some private conversation they had and spinning it in the shittiest way possible in an effort to hurt him.

I think he has a good chance now. But the dems screwing him is always a possibility as that seems to be one of their favorite pass times. I think they will avoid that this year though because hopefully they know if he gets the most votes and is obviously the people's choice, and they give it to someone else, that will essentially guarantee a second term for Trump.
I also think it's still very possible someone else wins legitimately, though.

Three things, Broly:
1) McCain was a lifelong Republican and part of the Republican party
2) McCain was once again a hero that day
3) McCain didn't dodge out of serving Vietnam like Trump the coward did with a fake doctor's note

McCain was a vindictive *******
I’m fine with Trump skipping Nam, it was a fake war. We never should have even been there. Gulf of Tonkin never happened.
The full repeal failed because it was a ****ing joke of a bill and a total pile of shit. They had no viable alternative to the ACA and just hoped people would buy their "We'll figure it out later" idiocy. Repubs should thank their lucky stars it failed and that whole shit show ended when it did because if the bill had passed and the nonsense continued for several more months/years they probably would have lost the house even worse than they did.

McCain didn't want to see millions of poor people lose their health insurance, despite being a Republican, he had a conscious and some compassion.
Of course you say that now

Loved McCaine. Hero, veteran. Didn’t like Palin. Only liked her in the porn parodies
