It's over when the general election rolls around anyway , regardless of the endorsement deals he makes . As much as it pains me to say this ...and it is acutely painful , Hill Dog is gonna mop the floor with that bozo . Welcome to the first- first man pseudo-presidency in American history , Americans.

That's the thing Bill . Remember , women never forget a thing . For Trump it was a matter of tact and silence , something he isn't adept at . He won't get the lady vote , the minority vote , the moderates will not (by and large ) vote for him and he can simply forget the young vote (18-30) . Doesn't leave much to hang his hairpiece on , LBB .

Hillary will win women, but not by as big as you think She will also win minorities but Dems always do Young voters will not come out and vote in any kind of force Trump kills it with Independents and moderates which is key to victory. It all comes down to about 4 states - the rest are already won.
He has done better in swing states
Republic primary participation is up like 70% Democratic participation is way down even with Sanders crowd

The only true statement in your post is the one about young

people not voting. They never do. If they did, it wouldn't be for Trump as the polling shows he does poorly with that group as well.
Latinos and all minorities despise Donald Trump in unprecedented numbers. With Latinos, who Republicans need at least 47% of the vote from to win, he is viewed unfavorably by a a startling 87%. In the last three presidential elections, only Dubya won over 50% of the Hispanic vote. McCain won 31%. Romney won 27%. See the pattern? 13% or less won't get it done.
Polling shows overwhelming majorities of women don't like him. Moderates and Independents don't like him. The only people that like him are angry white male Republicans. There just aren't enough of them to win a general election.
The Republican Establishment is scared poopless that, not only will Trump lose the general presidential election, he will cause them to lose their Senate majority. That's why you see them working so feverishly to deny him the nomination.

Well, if he wins half the mods and half the independent vote ...which he will come nowhere close to doing ...but if he did he would still lose decisively. If you're watching Fox news to gather all the good news on DTrumps upcoming presidential victory , you've been had .

Uh..I don't think you know many moderates, or your statement may be wishful thinking, but I'm a moderate and I know a lot of moderates, and NOT A ONE would for Trump, he is way too far right. Hillary will kill among moderates against Trump! Bernie on the other hand, might make them stay home because he is too far left for a lot of them.

I've done the math . He will only win about 32.5 % of the popular . . It's science ....and it'll be a depressing day in American history that's for sure. Of course , the same would be true if Trump won . In my estimation , the election of 2016 will always be remembered as the day America's political clout jumped the shark .

You seem angry . Are you angry ? So we're clear , I equally despise Clinton , but it's simple logic to see that Trump has very little chance to be president . It's his own fault really , but what're ya gonna do ?

Probably doesn't matter. Trump forced himself on the Republican party, took the Angry Edge guys the Tea Party had been getting, and mobilized those reactionary elements around him by cynically saying coarse and inflammatory stuff.
The problem is, the guys who were going to mobilize, are mobilized.
Appealing to the Angry Edge might work - if it was 1930's Germany or Italy and he had a bunch of psychos wearing brown shirts intimidating people away from the voting booth. Hitler essentially forced himself on the German Reichstag with something like 30% of the popular vote, hitting pretty much the same notes. (Not to say Trump is Hitler...that would credit Trump with both foresight and a malevolency I don't think he possesses...Trump is pretty much a reality TV showman who just knows who his audience is.) But if you're going to win with the Angry Edge, you'd better be in the mother of all recessions (or Depressions) and you'd better have a plan. Trump's always come across like he's just carelessly and fancy-free wingin' it, baby. And for whatever reason Trump doesn't seem to have any sort of plan for how exactly he's going to stop all those people he's offended from voting against him come the actual election.
Once Trump had the Angry Edge, the Republicans were pretty much powerless to divest themselves from him, however much they'd like to. The ones with actual agendas and plans have gotta be tearing their hair out, watching this circus.
I don't doubt Trump will move back towards the middle the second the primaries are over - all Republicans do, and he'll get somebody advising him savvy enough to tell him to tone it down - but at this moment, Trump Pumpers, sorry, it's Damage Done, no matter how much Trump may try to spin himself as a Reborn Moderate once the Republican primaries die down. And is Trump - who seems to feed on public attention the way a vampire compulsively feeds on human blood - really capable of toning it down, anyway?
Doubtful.
Which means it's going to be a landslide for Hillary unless something unforeseen happens. The problem is, the press has already unearthed durn near everything there is to unearth on the Clintons long since and the Clintons somehow survived it, whereas The Donald is in for an unholy media excrement-storm once the real election gets underway. Any disasters that happen, are a lot more likely to happen to The Donald than Hillary.
So go ahead and take an extra swallow off your flask, and brace yourself. Hillary's our next president.
God Bless America.
