Tell that to our gay fosters daughter and her wife's room mate. She is also gay, a member of PITA also and is supporting Trump because she and her friends, the gals she runs around with are all Republicans. Also tell this to the Log Cabin Republicans.

Those who have done business with Trump either get a product (property development, etc.) or an equity stake (partial ownership) for the money they've paid.

What are the DEATH penalty for LGBTs countries getting in return for the tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars they're giving to Hillary?

It's a serious question EVERY LGBT, their family, and friends should be asking, but they don't.

The Clinton Foundation should have rejected the Saudi donations. Trump should have rejected Saudi investment. Same difference.
Not the same AT ALL, and I've just explained why.

The only demographic left with any significant support for drumpf are lower educated rural whites. (majority of those are male)

That eliminates lots of other demographics, doesn't it?

Repeating the same thing over and over and over and over and over again doesn't "explain" anything except that you are very good at repeating the same thing over and over and over and over and over again.

To which I fully expect you to repeat the same thing yet again.

Wow, that's really quite incredible. Especially since trump is rather pro-gay by republican standards.

And let me guess... You voted for Obama... TWICE.

Obama is THE ONLY president in American history to serve two complete terms with the nation at war. And the wealth and income gaps have widened during Obama's 2 terms.

American idiots voted for someone who gave them exactly the opposite of what they said they wanted... TWICE.

Honestly... You can't make up that stuff. Truth is stranger than fiction.

That's why some believe low-info voters need facts repeated over and over again for them to sink in.

again you are wrong. I would not say our good friends in NJ, he has a PHD from Stanford is lower income, or our good friends here or hubby's cousins, engineers with masters. I could go on and on: our grandson in law, with 8 patents is supporting him. As are our granddaughter's, our daughter and myself. There are a lot of people who are very educated and very intelligent that support him. This is not the majority I realize, and of course there are many groups that are not supporting him, but don't assume only the uneducated are the only group. there are several posters right here, who are not uneducated or uninformed that stick by him through thick and thin. Has it dawned on you, people can disagree but that does not make them stupid in most cases. I could say only people who want the government to support them, or only support Hillary because they want a woman president are supporting her. But that isn't true.

Anecdotes.

I know no one who supports Donald Trump. Therefore, no one supports Donald Trump, right?

Instead of anecdotes (example: "I saw a video on YouTube and this one voter said: "_______ which means candidate ____________ has a ton of support from _____________ demographic")...

There is actually REAL legit polling out there and pollsters are spending a mint to do it. The one warning is that they can only call landlines and many younger voters only have a cell phone. Thus whoever is doing better with the younger voters, add a couple of percent to whatever they found out. Another thing, people live in rural areas without cell service still in certain places.

So with those factors in mind... you can reasonably take a couple of percent from the candidate supported more from older and rural voters (trump) and add a couple of percent to HRC.

Example:
The last three poll in the last week were
Rasmussen: HRC +5
Reuters: HRC +9
Bloomberg: HRC +12

or Clinton up by almost average of 9. Adjusting for the landline and rural factors... Clinton is really up probably 14% Polls that had Johnson/Weld included were more lopsided in favor of Clinton.

The only recent poll with Johnson/Weld AND the green party... Clinton was already up 10 before the landline or rural figured in.
