The RNC are desperate. He wont win the general now. You know it. Turn the lights off. Thank God. Look how McCains crowds helped Obama win. This is what Lindsey Graham said, the RNC went bat sht crazy. He will win the RNC but aside from the Trump flocks, mainstream folks will either stay home or vote against Trump. Its a wrap. But like Jesus Christ said Thy have eyes but refuse to see, they have ears and do not hear.

You're going to be saying that right up until election day, and probably after too.

Got news for you: Trump IS the new mainstream. His people will vote for him, traditional Republicans will certainly show up to vote against Hillary, and disaffected Democrats will vote for him as well. I don't like it, but that's how I'm calling it.

rejection of a strong and capable leader like trump by Americans like you and alike is a soft crime committed to future American generations. overcome your ungrounded fear of trump.

trump will probably win more votes from the minority communities than Hillary will.

It is my sense that the "minority communities" in New York have always understood Trump as a racist.
They would likely vote for anyone at all other than Trump - as well they should.

You can always find your random black renegade, of course.

I really don't understand what make Trump so strong. I mean is it the yelling and screaming? No one fears trump we fear what this country will turn into once he is elected. Trust it's going to be more harmful than good. Amongst American people.
