They don't understand that the majority of Americans are not bigots, racists or misogynists. They quietly go about their daily lives, and then turn out to vote responsibly in the fall. Which is why Clinton will win.
Democrats are racist. That is their history. It's the future they offer also. Divide by race and get out the vote.

You sure look like you have tons of hate there.

I'm not worried at all. During the primaries, Bernie had MUCH larger crowds, and tons of bumper stickers, etc. and Hillary still came out significantly ahead and won. I expect the same phenomenon will occur when she goes against Trump in November!

Size of the crowds is irrelevant. I hate crowds and would never attend a rally for anyone.

It's the votes that count, and obviously from the primaries, Hillary got out the vote.

Early voting. Some use mail in ballots and others go to the polls on different days because they're very busy people. Some still go on voting day also. But this is trending down as more states add early voting options. 3 states require vote by mail and going in person isn't an option for those 3 states.

Trump is the world's worst speech reader. He has trouble keeping his place when he reads so he uses his hand as a word counter. Watch him next time he reads....his hand bounces up and down each time he reads a word. It's quite painful to watch.

Years ago, when teaching little kids to read they used the technique "Follow the bouncing ball" and the ball would bounce on each word as it was read aloud. Trump does the same thing but uses his hand as the 'bouncing ball'.
