How did Mitt Romney win nearly 60 percent of white voters yet still manage to lose the election? Oh Yeah, *snaps fingers* because Obama won a disproportionate numbers of minorities. It's all about a groups percentage of the electorate is why. Whites are making up less of the voter base each election and minorities are making up more. Which makes winning the election without their help nearly impossible. Sure, Trump in theory could do it. He could drive 66-70 percent of white voters to go for him. And minority turnout rates could take a nose dive. However, typically the GOP averages at around 56 percent. So unless we are relieving the elections of Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon he needs more than just the white vote.
