75% GOPPERS Still For Trump. Women For Trump Signs????????????

With some polls showing tat 75% of GOPPERS are still for Trump and that there is a Women For Trump acolytes in his camp really reveal how large a problem the country has. So the sniping, lies and obstruction will continue with Hillary as president. The best hope is that Trump tanks to badly that we at least take the Senate. The House would be great.

To support someone so craven, corrupt and hateful is just so unimaginable.

I think there are more than a few who are afraid to say they've changed their minds because the hard core Trumpsters are a frightening mob of lunatics.

woefully underestimated the number in the basket. I suspected 75%, not half of his supporters.

these people feel for Hillary Clinton. It's completely irrational, but it's been relentlessly promoted for 30 plus years. She is the establishment and competence is overrated, according to the true believers.

If Democrats stay home and award this to Trump, we have only ourselves to blame. We've outnumbered them for years, yet they continue to hold power over us, and, when I say us, I mean women, Democrats and progressive thinkers. Time for US to take our country back!

But my search said there are 55mil registered republicans. So 75% of them would be around 40mil. How many of those are 60 and older I wonder? The most reliable Trump supporters.

The same search said there are 72mil registered democrats. Imagine if all of the dems would just vote.

42mil registered independents so you never know who they might support. I'm registered independent but haven't voted for a republican since I cast my very first vote of all time for Ronald Reagan because my dad told me to.
