Great prediction from a side that's never been right about anything that has happened so far. Why is yours any different? Just another shot in the dark with no substance. California is unpredictable, just as everything else in this campaign has been. Nice try, no cigar, keep some Crow handy.

Anyone that takes that seriously is grasping at straws and living in Disneyland.

Oh, and libs don't engage in "verbal abuse"? Take a look at some of the vile libs who demonstrate outside Trump rallies.

"Beating up people"? How many times did that happen? Very, very few incidents --- and the instigators were arrested.

Bwahaha...see this is what I'm talking about. You guys attack the other side for the very things your side does but then you defend your side when they do bad things

It's all a circus folks

And you folks do? You want us to believe that Trump has done nothing, and is going to fold and lose all his supporters just because its a "General" election? Shame some folks never had any common sense to go along with their degrees. I would want my money back, if my education taught me to think like the anti-Trump crowd. But your entertaining.


When you get your own "Airliner" and a few Billion in your Bank Account, come back and tell us more.

Hispanics who legally came to the US should want good jobs and security just like everyone else in the country. Right?

It is still early and Trump is doing so well. I expect this trend to continue as the message gets out and Clinton gets deeper in the poop she is involved in.
^^^^

No matter how many times it's explained, there are people who just can't wrap their head around the facts. Groups like La Raza utter 3 words, "The Hispanic vote" and politicians start shaking in their boots---just like the TDS sufferers.

I've told this story before but will repeat it for those who didn't see it --- A little over 10 years ago, the town next to us announced that they were going to use taxpayer money to open a day labor site for the illegals. It passed, despite opposition by the vast majority of voters. When the mayor (who announced that he knew better than the voters) announced that he was up for re-election, a candidate emerged who said he would shut down the site. The local chapter of LULAC was freaking out and said they were going to go door-to-door to get more Hispanics registered to vote so that the incumbent could stay in office. Well...it was a big flop. They only signed up 6 voters. Do you know why? Because most of the Hispanics in town told them that they were either here illegally or were here legally but not citizens.

Among the US citizen population of Hispanics, you have apathetic people who won't vote (this happens in any group of people), then in states that don't let felons vote, there are Hispanics in that group.

As for the rest of us --- Hispanics are NOT a monolith who all want amnesty and open borders. Nor do we all have illegal alien relatives.

You should read up on how prop 187 in California resulted in Hispanics leaving the party in droves. It took almost 20 to 30 years for the Demographics to put the CA GOP into permanent minority party

The same will happen with the GOP nationwide

If Trump tells you his strategy and you act on it that is his strategy and your mistake.

Default Trump's strategy

1. Find 8 - 10 million angry old white guys who haven't voted before.

2. Energize this untapped resource and get those boys to the polls on Nov 8th.

3. Slink away with his tail between his legs on Nov 9th.

It's OK, Drumpf. There have been flawed strategies before yours.

I'm not a fan of either, but November mirrors an open primary w/o restrictions.
