I already provided evidence, which you ignored because it didn't fit the false narrative that you gobble up.Democrats were voting for their own candidate, and then voting for Trump because he was the furthest left candidate on the Republican side, and they figured he had no chance against Hillary.
And how did they manage to do that, exactly? Do you know how an open primary works?
Everyone has been able to figure this out, except you.
No, I think it's just your little secret.
For starters, it wasn't 'independents'.

They were Democrats. They just vote in the Republican primary because they knew Bernie had no chance.
Your source is one man's speculation. It's not evidence.
Besides that, I'm fairly certain there are some states where you can completely legally vote in one primary, then the other.
No, you vote in either one or the other. You don't get to do both, so there were not Democrats who voted in their own primary and then voted for Trump on the GOP side as well as you earlier claimed.
That's not what flacaltenn said.
I got to vote in TWO primaries. Totally legally. I walked in on primary day and decided to monkey wrench the GOP by choosing ONE candidate, but voting for 13 electors splitting my choices between my "1st choice" and my "2nd choice". I'll enjoy any chaos that creates at the convention.. Could have chosen to be a Dem for the day and done voted for Bernie -- just because I could..
Then --- I attended the Libertarian State convention and voted in my party's REAL primary. And made my choice known to the LP leadership. The LATTER is a REAL party primary..
(and it didn't cost the public a dime)
He said it best, really.
It's simply because my Libertarian Primary holds it's OWN primaries and nominations. Without burdening the taxpayers or monkey wrenching each other with "open primaries" and other horseshit political gimmicks that they love... ALL parties should have their own primaries. Maybe then, we wouldn't end up with such damaged candidate choices and people voting out of FEAR instead of principles.
So I chose to be GOP in order to monkey wrench the delegate selections, because they ALLOWED me to do that. And then I actively participated in my own party process away from the clowns and the circus acts.
