Captain I know ur not a big trump supporter. From an outsiders viewpoint looking in, what's not to like about trumps immigration policy ? Why is border security a bad thing ?
I don't see anything bad about enhanced border security. It's an absolute imperative to get an handle on the problem. I just think the point can be made without all the fluff about gigantic walls and who will pay for it.
I think all these white republican voters not voting is a huge myth.Democrats have won the popular vote in 5 out of the last 6 Presidential elections.If they haven't come out in all that time they aren't coming out and many of them are dead now. The last time a candidate has won the Presidency with less than 40 % of the Hispanic vote was 2000,imo that's the last time a candidate will win the Presidency with less than 40 % of the Hispanic vote.The % of white voters is smaller now and the % of Hispanic voters is higher so now a candidate needs more than 40%.
Romney got 5 -6 % of the black vote. http://www.gallup.com/poll/139880/election-polls-presidential-vote-groups.aspx http://ropercenter.cornell.edu/polls/us-elections/how-groups-voted/how-groups-voted-2012/
It makes perfect sense. Trump is not nearly tied with Hillary in the polls.Hillary is ahead in around 29 of the last 30 RCP polls.Hillary's RCP average is + 5 points.In 2012 Obama's RCP average was in the + 1 to + 3 point range most of the time .Obama's final RCP average was only + 0.7 but he won by + 4 (RCP polls skew heavily toward the Republican candidate). Hillarys RCP average is nearly twice what Obamas was and increased Hispanic and Black support is part of the reason.Obama proved to be 3 points higher than The RCP average and Hillary probably is too.
Great. So we're on the same page. Divide and conquer. They want us squabbling over minutia details, he said she said nonsense, instead of focused on general direction Hillary is for open borders, zero border security, amnesty Trump is for secure borders, zero amnesty And deporting criminal aliens. Seems an easy choice.
