Trump has no chance in the general election, anti Hillary people love to bring up the independents and say that Hillary won't win because of them
But will Trump win without Latinos, African Americans, Muslims, and the LGBT community?
He won't

Hispanic vote.
Female vote.
What demographic other than white male vote does Trump do well? He will lose by a bigger margin than Romney did in '12 in my opinion.

Trump is the best thing to happen to the Democratic party in a long time.
apparently there will be a whole lot of hand wringing.
Which is fine as it will turn people out to stop it. It is somewhat depressing to see though on a site that is supposed to be people in tune to politics.

(41,991 posts)Will he be the bombastic revolutionary? Will he be the turn-on-a-dime quasi-liberal? Will he suddenly become Woman's Best Friend? Will he get religion and develop racial sensitivity?
WHO. WILL. TRUMP. BE?

(90,824 posts)Which means she'll have to say some conciliatory things and the folks here who already threw her under the bus for not being Bernie will try to hit Reverse and back the bus over her.
Bernie fans who are Democrats and have already been at the dance a couple of times will pull up their britches and help the Democrat. Just as we would have done.
Bernie will be able to negotiate some of his ideas into the Democratic platform, as is traditional with the person who didn't win. He'll get a prime time spot to speak -- unless he and Jane continue to try to take down the Party as well as Hillary. That is unacceptable.
