And that was BEFORE Trump revealed his thoughts on abortion and on the federal government’s place in the health care system and in education.

No.

They just have to sit back and watch while he destroys himself.

The crossovers cannot be counted on.

They will vote for Hillary or Bernie.

We cannot win with Trump.

Then why is it that only about ten percent or fewer of the articles posted are from Cruz supporters.

Are you using Trump math?

He says he’s vewy, vewy smart but how come he never graduated from Wharton?

Then why did he frantically walk it back the next day?

You need to face that Trump does not think logically and just spouts off whatever comes into his head at that second.

The abortion thing is because Trump is not really pro-life.

Only a few years ago when he was only 60 years old he was pro-abortion even partial birth abortion.

Because he has no firm opinion on abortion he is likely to flail.

In trying to persuade people he is really anti-abortion, he went a little too far.

It’s similar to his odd defense of Planned Parenthood. Anyone who truly cared about life would know all about PP and what an evil organization they are.

So yes, you did try to defend Trump and not just rely on attacking the poster but ...

And I think Hillary Clinton would be the second least popular candidate, if I’m reading the polls right.

I realize you’re like those women who fall in love with men in prisons, so this won’t get through to you. However, I don’t care what any poll says, all you have to do is see how many people show up at each of the candidates rallies, democrat or republican, to know who is the most popular.

It’s just basic common sense. Although I realize common sense is one of those flowers that just doesn’t grow in everyone’s garden.

Trump answered the question in question accurately.

When subsequently asked about his personal preferences, he made remarks that are characterized as ,walkback’, when, in fact, is was an answer to a different question.

I do love this. Now, when I actually look at the popular vote numbers among party front runners so far. Hillary has 8,924,821. Trump has 7,811,245. But I won’t let actual facts stand in your way. Carry on with your common sense.

Look at the popular vote
Tell me we are going to win with Rafael
Or someone who hasn’t even been running and tested and is appointed by the RNC

How many opponents has Hillary been running against, and how many has Trump been running against?

Make some adjustment there and get back to us on the popular vote

If he’s so unpopular why does he have so many fans?

You mean in your alternate universe Trump isn’t losing the primaries?

That doesn’t explain Trump’s 2 million+ popular vote margin over the others. Nice try though

Different voting publics. Not everybody who can win primaries wins the general election. Barry Goldwater or Walter Mondale won their party's primaries but still lost the White House.

I never said Trump was losing the primaries. So I’m not sure what you are talking about in your alternate universe.
