Excuse me. If people who don’t usually vote are going to the polls to vote in Trump, how exactly does this hurt the R dog catcher and state assembly candidates??
Trump doesn’t hurt down-ticket Republicans. But that’s the media narrative and the Dems’ objective. They want down-ticket Republicans to denounce Trump because they know the base will not vote for them.

We know it doesn’t. The R’s were going to get their clocks cleaned after passing the omni-bus and rubber stamping everything Obama wanted.
They are trying to blame their upcoming losses (and the cleaning of house) on Trump. They are either too stupid to accept responsibility, or too arrogant. I think it’s a combination of both.
I don’t see the R’s losing too much ground (some for sure), what I see is a changing of the guard, with incumbent R’s being primaried out. To them, that’s still a loss.
I know a lot of union guys who are going to vote for Trump, but they won’t vote straight GOP ticket, the GOP at large is still too globalist and anti-union for the average blue collar worker.
...and we voted Tea Party to get the RIGHT people in there...and they failed us. Trump is not necessarily conservative in all ways...but he is Anti-Left. Today, if you ran as an Anti-Left dog catcher, you would win on Trump’s coat tails.
