I don't know a single person from real life who would vote for Trump. (Obviously, his supporters are unavoidable online.) Maybe this is because of my age, or because I live in a diverse and well-educated area. Granted, most of the people I know are liberal... but I have (stupid?) conservative family members, and had 2 conservative roommates in college, and I can't fathom any of them voting for Trump - in the primaries or the general.
Do you know anyone voting for Trump?
Are they as nasty as the stereotypes? Or just decent people who want to Make America Great Again?
Are they conservatives, or non-ideological? Are they life-long Republicans, or were they non-political until now?
Are they as angry, upset, and bitter as the media says? Or just drawn to Trump's charisma?
I want to know how anyone could even consider voting for this guy - not to mention 33% of the Republican Party.
May be you're just blind to the folks all around you, seeing what reinforces your world view. In an homogenous community myself, right next to a liberal bastion, Portland, Oregon, I meet and see folks who say they intend to vote trump every day. I'm one of them. If you read around the forum you'll see I'm not the only one here and my reasons for doing so have been explained. They don't even come close to resembling the script you've built about Trump supporters.
lol, pats self on the back
let me guess, you're not a Trump supporter?
Most of the very right republicans I know will accept either Trump or Cruz. Though personally, Cruz does creep me out a bit. Anyone else takes the nomination and they're going to rebel.
Since your lean is "Communist" I'm guessing you're not either?
I didn't build a script, I just asked a bunch of questions. I'm curious about where you, and other Trump supporters you know, fall in my list of questions.
It sounds like the area you live in is much different than mine. (I'm 100% certain that my county will go for Rubio in a couple weeks.)
Did these people vote for Romney and McCain? And George W. Bush?
If you're voting for Trump - why?
Who did you vote for in the 2008 and 2012 primaries?
im not registered
but again you avoid the point. Your post is slanted as to pretend anyone who would vote for Trump is a cretin a moron etc. Even republicans you know certainly wouldnt vote for him, lol
You're not much better than the folks who compare Trump to hitler.
im sure you doI'm open to the idea that they're not, but I want evidence.
you must not get out much apart from your liberal "diverse" communityRight now I have nothing to work with, having never met one in person.
lol, yes im sure there areI think there are many uncanny similarities between Trump and historical fascist leaders, though that's a subject for another thread.
My next door neighbor is a big Trump supporter. She is pretty hard core Republican and very religious I would have suspected that she was backing Cruz until I talked to her. I wouldn't say that she is "angry/upset/bitter". She was a big GWB fan and doesn't like Obama. I think she's pretty typical of the Trump crowd. They are looking for somehow outside the political spectrum.
What is wrong with Kasich?Most of the very right republicans I know will accept either Trump or Cruz. Though personally, Cruz does creep me out a bit. Anyone else takes the nomination and they're going to rebel.
Interesting that she was a big GWB supporter and now she likes the loudest person attacking GWB's legacy.

The death of Scalia changes things in Trumps favor. Right now, he doesn't have the support of the conservative/educated demo (generally). When it comes to the general election, this demo will be forced to support Trump. He may or may not nominate a conservative justice but the democratic nominee will not.
