DONALD TRUMP Surging with Black Voters, Bests Romney, McCain with Latino Voters
The Gateway Pundit ^ | 18 Aug | Jim Hoft

Posted on 08/18/2016 8:14:27 AM PDT by xzins

Republican Donald Trump is surging with African American voters and gaining more support from Latino voters than Mitt Romney and John McCain.

The latest LA Times Daybreak poll has Hillary up by just six-tenths of a point.

Trump is surging with black voters and doing better with Latino voters than Romney or McCain.

In the last ten presidential election cycles the highest black vote share for a Republican was 12% for Bob Dole in 1996. Trump has 14.6% of the black vote in today’s LA Times poll.

If Donald Trump captured 25 percent of the African American vote he would win in a landslide.

And Trump has 26.7% of the Latino vote.

Mitt Romney gained 21 percent of the Latino vote in the 2012 election. Senator John McCain received 23 percent of the Latino vote in the 2008 election.

I think (and hope) that we are on the cusp of a turning point.

Finally, the mainstream media, the drive bys, the Soros funded initiatives are all:

Becoming Marginalized

Today we read that the Huffington Post is losing clicks. Drudge is soaring. Breitbart is soaring. Legacy media, meh.

No bumper stickers,

I commute 120+ a day and I have not seen any Trump or cankles bumperstickers at all!

Not one......

Just an observation not anything of substance....

I get my news from the internet. I bypass the TV almost always and get little from it.

This new media is becoming fast, nimble, and far more insightful than the old MSM.

That’s one reason Trump has spent $0 so far on TV advertising.

Last night I put up my Trump yard sign. Then kept a careful eye on it so no one would stop and take it. I took it in a night, doing this every night till the election, we live in a residential neighborhood.

Hillary’s health is a real issue that is being covered up.

As we spread the videos, pictures, and articles of her problem, a lot of Americans are realizing that she just doesn’t have it.

We need to make good use of our email, twitter, facebook, etc. accounts.

But I thought the only way to get the Latino vote was to pander to illegals?

I've seen a handful of each, but

1) noone can stand Hitlery and

2) no Trump supporters want their car keyed/torched

You’re right about Medved and Hewitt.

When I listen to Medved and Hewitt I know I’m listening to what a leftist globalist sounds like when they’re pretending to be something else.

Fortunately, I don’t listen more than a few seconds.

Maybe the lack of stickers means nothing. But I suspect it does.

A stock of bumper stickers is cheap and when placed on metal at street corners requires and extremely determined person to remove them. Then place them back again.

Well, as has been proven in great numbers in the past, those on the left have no compunction against destroying the property of those they disagree with. That being said, I don't put them on my car, because I can't watch it or protect it when I'm at work.

I know many others who do the same.

Now, the lack of Hillary stickers can be attributed to people just not liking her at all.

I've seen plenty of Bernie stickers, and very few Hillary stickers.

Funny thing happened on the way to work. Natural born Hispanic citizens were found out to be Americans first.

Shouldn’t really have surprised anyone.

Get magnetic bumper stickers. Take them into work with you.

It’s too bad that the media is always a week behind in reality!!! I do not care one hoot about ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN!!! They are lost at sea. Fox News Channel is also woefully behind the real world. Only Fox Business Channel has the real up to date facts!!!

Beware media goons.....Bannon, Conway & Trump have your number. After DJT wins the POTUS....Bannon, Conway, Hannity, Dobbs, etc.....will birth a Cable News Channell that will own the world in just, but, a few years!!!

Clinton/Obama, Media......hint....HRC is not winning the polls!!! You are not fooling any one that has half a funtioning brain!!! LMAO!!!

A lot of them know firsthand or not very many generations ago just what kind of trashiness that Mexican politics has been pumping northward. And they are like, no thank you Mexico, please leave it where it is.

Yesterday I saw a Black liberal that I’ve known for some time. I told him that Hillary and the Clinton Foundation made many millions of dollars when she was Secretary of State and if she becomes president, she would become one of the wealthiest women in the world. He agreed.

I used to like Medved, but I do believe his motivation does not come from where I used to believe it comes from. I’m with you. there seems to be a serious lack of sincerity. His pandering to Christianity I no longer buy. I think is is in the “keep them docile” camp.

I think he is a mouthpiece for the #uniparty.
