Van Jones: Donald Trump is probably going to win the White House.
Facebook ^ | 02 May 16

Posted on 05/03/2016 4:25:51 PM PDT by Drew68

14 minute video on VJ's Facebook page reminding his fellow Democrats that Republicans told themselves over and over again that Trump had no chance at the nomination and now democrats are doing the same thing. He's worried.

Some takeaways:

*Democrat base demoralized.

*Republicans underestimated his appeal.

*Trump's "mistakes" weren't mistakes at all.

*Trump makes great use of social media.

But the money quote is this:

It's very simple, “Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser.” (General Patton)

Unfortunately, America has tolerated a loser for what will be eight long years. Now it is time for an American Alpha Male, a winner, a fighter, who will not tolerate losing.

Go Trump!

I heard a black man telling another black man at the VA last week, talking about Obama, “He ain’t my president. Trump is my president.”

I just don't see Hillary connecting with black men. Black women, sure but not black men.

Trump has swagger. He has money. He has babes. He's a walking rap song. I think we're going to be surprised at Trump's inroads here.

Terry McAuliffe may want to think twice about felon voting rights he's about to restore.

+1 to what you said.
I’ll add that blacks dislike the illegals, whom they see as pushing ahead of them in jobs and benefits.

Yes he will, and it will be historic. All 50 states will be in play...

Newt Gingrich on Trump...

Newt then said something that ought to TERRIFY Democrats.

Hillary Clinton represents all of the elements of Washington DC that people are in rebellion against… I think a lot of the millennials who were voting for Bernie Sanders are not going to vote for Hillary Clinton. I think they think she’s not honest. I think they’re bothered by her scandals with the Clinton Foundation, her scandals with her email server… There’ll be a lot of Democrats out there looking for someone to go to. In addition, Trump has somehow communicated with blue collar workers across America and we certainly see this in terms of registration numbers… We’ve had a 60% increase in Republican turnout this year compared to four years ago. There’s been about a 30% Democrat turnout decrease over 2008, the last time they had a contested nomination… Secretary Clinton is not exactly rousing people’s excitement…

I think it’s important this year because of the unique moment in time and because of the uniqueness of Donald Trump to erase all of our thinking about what kind of states could be in play. I think if Trump runs as aggressive campaign in the general election as he has done in the primaries all 50 states could be in play.

I know of at least two black women who have never voted GOP in their history, but will be supporting Trump. They are furious with illegal immigration.

Trump must actively campaign in black neighborhoods and point out the simple fact that supporting the Democrat party has been disastrous for blacks. He does that and Election night will be a landslide victory party.

My dental hygienist is an older black woman who regaled me tales about pounding the pavement for Shirley Chisholm back in the day.

She's voting for Trump. Loves him!

Commie or not, Jones is right in this particular case. The Democrats not only need something around 90% of the black vote, they also need to have a heavy turnout.

In this particular election, Trump’s message that uncontrolled immigration is destroying our economy should resonate with a lot of blacks and a lot of Hispanics. Why? Because those immigrants are mostly taking jobs from the less well-educated among our population. The policy of the Democrats, and of Hillary Clinton, is to continue to bring in competition that will lead to even more unemployment online blacks and Hispanics. I have got to believe that a certain percentage of both blacks and Hispanics are sensible enough and responsible enough to understand this, and to vote for somebody who credibly promises to stop this process. I believe that Donald Trump is that person, and that since the Republicans fight is now over, he will start hammering this and probably end up with 20% of the Black vote and 35% to 40% of the Hispanic vote.

Hope he has a ticket to Mexico. They need to head south, not north.
