Thanks to Obama, times have changed and it is my belief that the NYcity street and working people love Trump and have good reason too. I think Trump is a hero of sorts for Black people and they get it.

I have been a fan of Dr. James Manning , a Harlem minister since Obama's election when Dr. Manning, using youtube and The Manning Report, taught me a new vocabulary when he called Obama a "big eared long legged Mac Daddy." I later learned that he was calling Obama out as a street hustler and a pimp.

He also has a long history of supporting Trump from years past and with this recent video: https://youtu.be/BUvRR67fUbc?t=8

The Rust Belt too. The Gulf oil patch is listening to him as well. An America first Republican candidate with balls and a shot. We haven’t seen that in over a generation now.

You shoulda said "wench" because I don't see vast support for frau pantload from minority males, or any males for that matter.

With the Democrat Party in total disarray Trump’s, high profile in New York his 25% of Black support and 45% of Hispanic support his winning New York is almost inevitable. You could say the Republican party is fairly well dead as well. but Trump is the only Republican who does not need the Republican party to win anywhere. He will win in spite of them not because of them.

I grew up on Long Island.....decades ago.

As you know, there are a lot of Republicans on Long Island, including most of my relatives who still live there.

Didn’t Romney get roughly 50% of the vote in Suffolk County in the 2012 general election? I think Trump would do much better there this November.

I see no way for the democrats to triumph if Trump carries New York state. Their path is closed. It will mean the GOP-E has failed to undercut him, and it will mean the media has been ineffective, not just in NY but around the entire country.

It’s probably why they are terrified of Trump.

If New York state is in play, it would also mean that there would be a lot of other blue states in play.

Something to consider.

Trump built a lovely golf course in Queens NYC. It overlooks the Whitestone Bridge and you see a big sign that reads Trump Ferry Point Golf Course every time you go Bronx bound over the bridge.

He has done a lot of good things for the city. I think it is in play.

His name is everywhere.

Not to mention that the jig will be up for the GOPe of foisting moderate candidates on the party because of “electability.”

I have been saying, for a while now, that there is a pretty good chance that Trump; WILL win N.Y. State!

How do I know this?

Because I pay attention, know political history, and still know a few N.Y. Conservatives in politics.

I can picture him in one of these outfits.

I agree. Trump isn’t a card carrying conservative, but he sure isn’t a moderate. That’s why they hate him. He’s about as immoderate as they come

The real problem in NYC, is that ACORN ( under a different name ) is still VERY active there and it’s how de Blasio got to be mayor.

NYC is inhabited by lots of immigrants who can’t vote yet. The battle will be to get them registered.


Inhabited by a lot of Republicans also. I am one.
