...YouTubers? There are like 40 million black citizens in this country. What kind of evidence of support is that?
It's antidotal and hardly scientific evidence but something Jeb Bush and Cruz certainty weren't getting.
My point is I won't be surprised if we see more support coming Trumps way from Black communities around the country where job creation is strong selling point.
What Nevada showed about Trump's Hispanic support - and what it didn't
When it comes to the Latino voting bloc, one thing is clear: it's not monolithic. They went Democratic for Obama in 2012 (71%).
But George W. Bush garnered 44% of the Hispanic vote in 2004 -- the best showing ever for a Republican.
There are Cuban-Americans in the mix who tend to be Republican and conservative, Puerto Ricans who have recently moved to Florida voting Democratic and Mexican-Americans who are all over the place ... just to name a few.
In the end, it's probably too early for Trump to say that he's "No. 1 with Hispanics."
But it's also too early to say that he's not, in spite of the anti-immigrant rhetoric that has alienated a significant portion of this voting bloc.
It's never too early to say he's not #1 with Hispanics--it's the height of idiocy to even suggest that.
16% of Hispanics in Nevada are registered Republicans. The rest are registered Democrats (55%) or Independents (29%).
Trump won less than half that 16% total, which means that 93% of the Latino vote went to someone other than him. Sounds about right.

When Trump said he was "No. 1 with Hispanics," he was referring to entrance polls showing that among Hispanic Republicans who participated in Tuesday's Nevada caucuses, 45% voted for him, compared to 27% for Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, a Cuban-American; and 18% for Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, also a Cuban-American.
For a candidate who accused Mexicans immigrants of being "rapists" and "killers" and has repeatedly promised that he will build a wall between Mexico and the United States (a promise he reiterated Tuesday saying Mexico will pay for it), winning Hispanics was indeed a significant victory.
How does Trump get elected when he calls Mexicans rapists?
How does Trump get elected when he calls women fat, ugly, disgusting pigs and worse? Do you know that at Trump rallies, they sell Hillary pins that liken her to KFC but with fat thighs and small breasts?
Women are 51% of the population. I realize Trump has some wildly devoted women supporters of a certain demographic, but do you think women outside of that demographic would ever vote for him? Trump seems to think women are only of value if they are half naked on a stage. He's already traded in two wives and is on his third. He likened his love life as his own personal Vietnam (since he got out of Vietnam with a bone spur).
last i checked mexicans are mexicans and not supposed to vote in our elections. And Rosie O does not qualify as a woman.. Come on get some new material.
There are 40% of eligible voters that dont go out and vote. Trump will get them to come out. He energized this party with new voters. I'm feeling Trump will win NY, NJ, and CA. Historic red and blue states will be redefined in this election.

The percentage of black voters in proportion to the population was greater than whites in 2012. If those numbers turn out again like that at that rate, 90-95 Clinton, Trump is done.
OK. So there are more Black people in SC than there was in 2012. I'm not sure about that, but lets go with it. SC will still vote Red.
Vanity Fair, Politico. If you believe ANYTHING what they say on politics, I have a bridge for sale for you.
So NOW you believe what a leader of the KKK says.
Now THAT must be a FIRST!
