Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumThank you, GOP, for destroying yourself and making Trump the nom.
He will be the easiest of all to beat. The Democratic leadership had been hoping all along it would be Trump. He will alienate all but white hacks and racists, and the rest of the REAL America, the beautiful melting pot which is now the majority, will vote Hillary. The small percent who write in a candidate will still be irrelevant, and the #nevertrumpers are welcome! Bye GOP! You had a good run! Historians will now tell the tale of how the tea party took its own party behind the shed and put it out of its misery.
By the way, GOP, the term is "Madam President." Best to start practicing.

(2,117 posts)Trump is not a traditional conservative. He's not even a conservative. He may be starting what is the end of the GOP. A fractured party without an identity. Yes they currently have control of congress, but how long can it last when your party no longer has an identity, and women, Hispanics, and African Americans now see the party for what it really is? Those 3 groups are the majority now. He has pulled the curtain back and really damaged the brand among these demographics. More so than before. And I thank him for that.

The DNC doesn't even bother running candidates in some districts, like my California Congressional District 1 and that is much worse in red states.
The conservatives loved the results from Bill Clinton's term and will be fine with Hillary's as well.
I hate thinking that, but that is how bad this all is, this year.

(2,117 posts)Political experts explaining why the GOP is in real trouble over this nominee. I hear what you're saying. and it's by no means assured. But what has happened in the GOP is historic and it truly is putting the GOP at risk of extinction.
I can find an article later if you'd like.

(1,209 posts)I do notice what is going on they don't mention.
No one in control of the
Republican party is upset, except from the side that lost control and that a firm accomplishment soon after the 2012 election.
There were one or two interviews, but I don't think there were any articles about it specifically.

(2,117 posts)Took me about 30 seconds to find this quote from you in another thread:
"I have never been a Hillary Clinton supporter"
Makes your cynicism crystal clear. You don't like the Clintons and don't want them to win. You ridiculously equate the republican unity of the 90s with the newly fractured GOP under Trump because you want Hillary to fail. That's what the human mind does when it hates someone; it overlooks reason and reality to reach its desired conclusion. In your case since you dislike Hillary the desired outcome is that Hillary will fail and America will pay for voting her in.
Case in point, this quote from you above: "The conservatives loved the results from Bill Clinton's term and will be fine with Hillary's"
And posting this thread that accuses Hillary of being a liar in the headline and then pretends it is merely a study in human behavior.

Your Hillary hate is subtle so you've flown under the radar up to now. But I predict you'll be banned from the group quite soon.

(1,220 posts)I wish I had more confidence...but seeing how people blindly support both Trump and Sanders, two candidates with absolutely no coherent plans to support their promises, it makes one think that anything could happen.

(2,117 posts)How does he win without women, Hispanics, and African Americans?
And now that Gary Johnson has arrived to siphon off more votes from Trump, there's a lot going in Hillary's favor.
