It's more likely that the majority of millennials will vote for Clinton than Trump, because as a group they are more liberal than older generations. The big danger for Hillary isn't that as a group they will turn to Trump, but that many don't vote. The larger the percentage of millennials to vote, the more likely it is to help the Democrat, and in this case Hillary Clinton.
Also remember that only 59% of millennials are N/H whites.
As a late millennial, I'd vote Green if my state is clearly voting for Clinton. If it's a tight race, I'd force myself to vote for Clinton. Regardless, I hope for a true liberal candidate to take the reins from her next cycle.
Millenials don't care about PC as they are well versed in educated and polite speech. When they choose to use it. My son and his college age friends ARE pro Bernie but they are not Hillary haters and will give her their vote as opposed to Cruz, Trump, or Rubio.
There is not one candidate MORE morally bankrupt and dishonest than the carnival barker, Donald Trump. He stands for everything Bernie despises. How could anyone who identifies with Bernie - vote for a person who cannot bring himself to disavow the KKK and David Duke?
Please don't respond to my posts again. You are hopelessly a liberal and will never agree with my perspective. Save yourself the embarrassment of trying to refute what I say because all you do is spout of liberal slander out of the fantasy playbook.

I am not sure Clinton is a clear thinking liberal. I don't know any liberals (old or young) really like her.
Hillary's Got a Millennial Problem
Perhaps, but I can't see large numbers of millennials turning to Trump. I think it will be a question as to how many actually turn out to vote in a Hillary-Tump race, rather than Trump actually carrying the millennial vote. I'm sure there will be significant regional variances as well, with Southern millennials more likely to back Trump than in other areas.
I'll vote for Trump because although I dislike some of his policies, unlike Shillary he's not getting his pay in back room deals with big companies and then spouting a populist message on the podium.
Well, according to Trump himself, he has been the one doing the payback in those back room deals with politicians. I don't know how one can consider paying for political favor any more moral than providing political favor. This way he just eliminates the middleman.
Do you really think Trump is going to upend the system that keeps him wealthy? He's got an expensive wife to keep.

Could be, but here in orange county california, i would say a lot of young Republicans (under the age of 35) like Donald Trump.
Military families (and I can only speak for the people I know) either like him or hate him, there is almost nothing in between.
I think of lot of them will just not vote. They dislike Hillary (and they should...she's practically stealing the delegates from Sanders) but they also dislike Trump. Sure, some will switch their vote to Hillary but not as many as she's hoping.
