Dick Morris: Blue Collar Whites Swing Big Time to Trump (from +16 to +30 for white men)
NewsMax ^ | 10/27/2016 | Dick Morris

Posted on 10/27/2016 1:34:50 PM PDT by GilGil

The latest Fox News poll shows Donald Trump only 3 points behind Hillary Clinton, after reporting the week before that he lagged by 6 points and before that by 7 points, but an analysis of the data indicates that the shift is animated by a big swing by white blue collar voters to Trump.

White men who have only a high school education backed Trump by 16 points in the Fox News poll one week ago, now support him by an amazing 30 points — a gain of 14 in Trump's direction.

Yeah, I would feel much better if he saw a Hillary landslide


I have mixed feelings about that statement. We’re talking about Dick Morris

Well, he's usually wrong about everything.

It always creeps me when I hope what he says is true!

I don’t think there’s any “swing” here at all. These blue-collar white men were always going to be in Trump’s corner.

Seems I recall polls on republican candidates generally reflect about 2-points below what the actual split is.

Basically, polls are lower than the actual republican count.

“And once the electin is over they will turn on The Anointed One. “

That’s what I am *really* hoping to see should she lose.

Someone has to keep on telling Hillary that, had it not been for Obama, she’d be retiring right now from politics as a two term, first female president and that her “campaign” events would be nothing but cheering on “Senator Obama” to the Presidency to secure her “likely” third term thus putting her in a class like Reagan.

Instead, she’s facing defeat from Donald Trump and the Deplorables.

That would *have* to make her head explode ... not only would she lose, it’d have to keep her awake at night that Obama certainly screwed her out of the Presidency back in 2008.

I am hoping beyond hope that the Clintons, when this is all over, behave like the scumbags they are and expose Obama ... he is the sole reason why she will have never won the presidency.

I hope they release all the information they have on that scumbag though I fear they’re going to need it if Trump does what he says and investigates the Clinton Foundation ... since they’ll be completely out of power, they’ll need to use something for some leverage.

Obama is going to be just as dangerous out of power as he is in power ... he’ll make a “Clinton Foundation” that makes the Clinton’s look like rank amateurs. If we play our cards right, we can have those two parties wipe each other out in the aftermath of this election.

Obama won NC by 14K votes in 2008. There were even buses taking black voters to the polls on Sunday directly from church.

Now, ...crickets...

I did early voting in a place that is traditionally 1/3rd black. But, it was crowded and no blacks around.

Maybe there will be a late push, but not so far.

Bingo! the networks use the polls that fit their narratives. Once it’s over they make up an excuse and move on.

Blue collar men are tired of having their jobs exported, and what few jobs remain getting taken by illegals. They will no longer listen to their union leaders.

They want the great America of their youth to come back again.
