Really, that seems like a dream scenario for Trump.

In this scenario, if teaming up anyway in the end is the plan, then playing it straight from the start and going for a shared ticket right away would be way more honest.

It would piss off Bernie supporters but you have to ask:

Do we want a Democratic Socialist who isn't a member of our party and hasn't garnered more than 40% or do we want a candidate that the moderate majority can be comfortable voting for?

If you go with Bernie, you have to hope the moderates complete dislike of Trump gets them to hold their nose and support Bernie.
