If you consider that you have large amounts of deluded candidates not dropping out when they don't have a prayer of winning than you would be correct. Otherwise it's not much different than what you normally get.

Yes, it is true. Check out Ropers "How Groups Voted in _______" if you don't believe me. Democrats have averaged around 38 percent of the electorate each election. In 8 of 10 elections it's varied between 37-39 percent of the electorate. The only two years it was higher was in 96 when they were 40 percent of the electorate * Which isn't that big of a difference * and in 1980 when they made up 43 percent of the electorate.

No, he just inferred that the people they send us are rapists and criminals. The reality is the same though. Just how well do you think statements like that are going to go over?

If Trump had listened to this nonsense, then he would have dropped out long ago. Many many "experts" said the didn't have a prayer to win the nomination. He proved them all wrong.

There are only 2 election periods in the last 40 years, where GOP members outvoted Democrats.. And those years the numbers were pretty close...

This year, not so much.. Did you even look at the chart posted?
