Trump is not going to win anything. He can lose the nomination altogether, or he's going to lose in the general election as the Republican or the 3rd party. Either way, look forward to Hillary 2016 if Republicans hitch their wagon to Trump . Every pollster, with the exception of Fox News , predicts a Hillary win . Trump is Ross Perot 2016, and make no mistake about it

^Hmm.
  • Hillary has already spent $50M on her campaign
  • Trump has spent $0 on his.
  • Yet they are in a statistical dead heat according to that chart.
That says the King is in bad trouble especially since Trump hasn't even started to campaign against her yet.

Trump has spent almost nothing on his.

Yet they are in a statistical dead heat according to that chart.
Dead heat or not, winning even +1 or +2 still means Hillary wins. The GOP train wreck will be so much fun to see, 2016 will be for Republicans what 1968 was for Democrats

Nope. Trump hasn't even started to campaign against her yet. Unlike Hillary, Trump has to win the nomination first. The Democrats decided to simply hand Hillary the nomination since she has no ability to win a competitive election.

At the way the Hillary campaign is burning through money, they will be broke by next year. (just like 2008)

Ah the good old "Democrats are so scared of X, that's a sign that X is definitely going to win". It didn't work in 2012 or 2008, just thought I'd help jog your memory

Default Trump will lose in the end

Probably; but, the "elites" in politics and the media will be looking over their shoulders for years to come looking for the freight train they narrowly dodged.

Right now there are many other GOP candidates beside Trump. Once the party is united behind him and with the disillusioned Democrats jumping ship; Hillary could thoroughly trashed in the election. Don't forget Trumps logo to: Make America Great Again. The poor and middleclass lost ground under Obama and many are willing to give the other side a chance - especially if they are not a politician. Hillary should be shaking in her panty hose!

Trump's main base of support is the Deep South and Midwest, states with a rapidly shrinking white, non-college educated voter base. The GOP is definitely toast if blacks and Hispanics in swing states turn out like they did in 2012. In VA and NC, states with increasing white moderates and shrinking white RW extremists, will hand Hillary the election if Trump is nominated. Trump doesn't do so well with moderate voters which are concentrated in NoVA and Raleigh/Durham and Charlotte.
