It saddens me to read this website on a daily basis

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

African-American vote.
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.

But a whole lot of white guys will vote for the Democratic Candidate as well! And Trumps needs ALL of them.

Some folks will be hand wringing, but the political professionals can read the data and demographics.

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.

Most found him to be a joke, and pretty much all of them said he'd lose quickly.

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?

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.
