I think that Trump will win. Clinton is as flawed a candidate as the left could possibly have thrown out there. Well a self avowed socialist might be farther but I digress. Trump is bringing out the voters. He's building support. People want to make America great again. It resonates. There are people voting for Trump... not just against Hillary. If he can turn New York red, Clinton is toast.
This whole election to me is just weird. On the one side you have a woman that is just not a people person and is in fact one of those people you would probably avoid being anywhere near in real life. On the other side you have Trump, an arrogant ass that hasn't said one thing he truly believes yet. A person that takes away all the smoke and mirrors of politics and just makes it clear to everyone that he will do whatever he wants and say whatever he pleases. Still, this isn't that much different than what we have now.
From the day this idiot threw his wig into the ring, I knew he was going to win
history has demonstrated over and over that in order to succeed the times must be right for the person
and the country is socially and politically and mentally and emotionally right for King Donald
he is an opportunist and he saw that the time was right
he is going to win
If we use history as our judge........ a Trump-like personality will win........the strong man who rides in on his white horse to save the poor frightened masses.......
No chance of Trump carrying NY............The folks is NY KNOW Trump and who/what he is........Color him dirtbag

yes, he is smart, he knows people, he is an orator...he doesn't follow a script because he has an intuitive understanding of people, he knows how to read what people think they want, what they think they need and then he tells them they are right and he will cooperate
he is quite bright
it might be what the country needs in order to balance itself I don't know
He created a lot of jobs in New York. He's a New York native son. Hillary, is a carpetbagger who moved there just to run for Senate.
And this all means?
Umm.. that's your opinion. Having been a New Yorker, and have friends still there, we don't ALL share your opinion about Trump...at least when compared to Hillary Clinton.
We recognize he is a blowhard, bigger than life personality, always seeking the limelight because that's what helps him sell.
This time he is really trying to sell himself. If he is elected I don't see him doing much of anything worth worrying about. I can't say I feel the same about Mrs. Clinton. :shrug:
He is assuredly will get the upstate vote.........but when in the primary he cannot even win the ED he is resident of..........WHERE ALL THE VOTERS AR REPUBLICANS..........sort of gives one a clue..........
Trump carry NY..........No way......
I've been over this dozens of times, looking at the electoral map counts from multiple perspectives and even giving Trump a few States very much in question... and I cannot get Trump to 270.
By most accounts and predictions messing with this it is not close, even when considering 3rd party impacts on the popular votes in key States.

Six months ago, everyone said that Trump couldn't win the nomination. Hillary R Clinton could not win in 2008 against a first term Senator that most people had never heard of... Trump has name recognition for days.
it is a mystery how we have arrived at this type of mess
my country is the same...we vote people out not in and we tend to vote for those we feel will do the least harm
it just is, and that is sad
Then put up a prediction map where Trump obtains 270, give us something to evaluate.
Trump proves that all you need is charisma, rhetoric and money to get a real shot at the Presidency, and nothing else. He has no real platform and is clearly making it up as he goes along.
The thing is, America is ripe for this kind of candidate. People are so polarized and easily stoked into emotional fervor that it was only a matter of time before a sociopathic narcissist took a shot at being POTUS. Our sense of reason and logic, as a nation, is really in jeopardy if this is any indication.
He's a total RINO if you look at his policy opinions even just a few years ago, but people will vote for him because he's a good **** talker.
