(38,428 posts)14. Illinois has a large number of Hispanics, Asians, and Afro Americans.
All of these will be strongly motivated to vote because ...Trump is Trump...worse than a garbage dump...
He will loose Illinois by at least 400,000 votes.

(3,072 posts)8. I grew up in Illinois and lived there for 27 years
I can say with absolute certainty that the people of Illinois would rather launch of nuclear strike on themselves than vote for Trump.
Seriously, what kind of delusional world is this guy living in? There must be people in his campaign saying "you're up 30 points in California" and "the people of this nation see you as the second coming of Jesus".
