Trump is forcing the Republicans to re-evaluate their stances on illegal immigration, a topic many of them are soft on.

Bernie is introducing more socialist rhetoric into the Democratic race, more so than any other candidate on the left at this point, and is starting to take the attention away from the Dems hand picked favorite, Hillary.

Essentially, both are upsetting the establishment figures within each party, and both have the poll numbers to back it up, even though Bernie still has some catching up to do with Hillary. People are tired of the party favorites getting all the attention, and are turning it to other candidates.
