I am not sure what you’re driving at regarding the demographics of projected Trump voters... but I’ll take a stab at it OK?
Let me just say that I am a high school drop out, volunteered for the military scoring 143 on my ASVAB which qualified me for every single job in an enlisted position, was accepted to the US Army Parachute Team- the Golden Knights, an aerial parachute demonstration team, a 20 year member as a union carpenter (journeyman) union teamster (laborer/truck helper) Democrat before I was a Republican, Republican precinct committeeman, stalwart volunteer and paid staff for Peter G. Fitzgerald- the first Republican to be elected as US Senator, to represent Illinois, in 20 years, volunteer contractor in Iraq and Afghanistan for 40 months, attendee to both of George W. Bush’s Inaugurations, attendee to one of Free Republic’s unofficial Inaugural Balls, and recent volunteer for DJT at a Get Out The Vote phone bank campaign in AZ. AND did not vote for Romney in 2012. So- no bragging, just setting the stage to tell you that millions of Democrats, and Independents, and DISGUSTED Republicans, just like myself- WILL come out by the millions to vote for Donald John Trump for President, because all of these voters are fed up with the fundamental transformation of America, and they too love their country.
Cruz ain’t speaking to their souls like Trump, and Cruz ain’t taking the heat like Trump for America!
Out of courtesy- please make your response, for once you do- we are finished!
You are the one that unilaterally picked the past 3 months.
Since January 2016, Trump’s unfavorable numbers have been going consistently up and his favorable numbers have been going consistently down.
Meanwhile, even with only two other candidates in the race, Trump still hasn’t managed to win a majority in any state.
God bless you.
Try sticking to the subject.
If you can't, it must be because there isn't a refutation possible to the sentiment expressed that by Cruz's logic, Cruz should have dropped out after Texas.
Cruz got 43% of the vote in the TX 2016 Presidential Primary.
Lowest ever for a Texan* vying for President

Someone sounds butt hurt and angry, can’t wait for the second ballot.
Thank you- and... GRRR! ;0)
Neither can Preibus and Paul Ryan

“Cruz’s unfavorable numbers have been going consistently up and his favorable numbers have been going consistently down.”
You do understand that in making your argument against Trump, you are also making the same argument against Ted Cruz
Like Cruz, a flip flopper. Like Cruz, a lack of honor and dignity. Like Cruz, one who will say whatever sells. Of course, it is slightly possible that being against 0bamao had something to do with 0bamao’s skin color and not his parentage. In which case, there are deeper and more sinister issues that should be addressed.
There’s actually a much stronger argument that Cruz should drop out now.
Everyone (even the Cruz camp) admits that Trump will head into the convention with far more delegates than Cruz, and will be the leader.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but since we went to a national caucus/primary system in 1972, the first place candidate going in has always captured the nomination.
I THINK (but am not sure) the last time a non-leader going in won the nomination was in 1940. Quite rare, though it occasionally happened in the 1800s in a quite different delegate selection/nomination system.
What are you talking about, dumb dumb? Pay attention to who you're replying to. That said, there is no "straight up" or near straight up in past 3 months for Trump, according to your own graph. It's about the same place it was back in June 2015, apparently.
Anyway, this is a retarded point, as explained before, number one, since you're relying on flawed polls, and, number two, since Cruz's numbers are only better by a few points. Logically, this argument of yours also sinks Ted Cruz.
I haven’t said or implied anything regarding the demographics of projected Trump voters, just that there are not very many of them, at least so far there have not been enough of them for Trump to win a majority in any state.
When there were a dozen candidates on the ballot, a 37% plurality was enough to win primaries. Now, not so much. If Trump cannot win a clear majority in NY with only two other candidates on the ballot, he can never win a majority anywhere.
Yes, Trump’s 37% are very loud and enthusiastic. I am old enough to remember how very loud and enthusiastic all those McGovern supporters were in 1968. No, I am not comparing Trump to McGovern, I am just pointing out that loud and enthusiastic doesn’t mean crap when you are a loud and enthusiastic minority of voters.
Bubba can't understand because generations of inbreeding have lowered his IQ to around 52. It's amazing he can even type.
As a former carpenter, well said !! I have a large extended family of union carpenters and electricians and their all on the Trump train.
Sorry about the duplicate posts. I think 132 is more accurate than 119 in terms of the history.
This is more dumb dumb arguments on display, since Trump is at 53 percent according to a polling group that traditionally polls him poorly. Basically it's like saying Cruz would do poorly in Texas, with the exception being that he actually did do poorly in Texas for a sitting senator.
So Trump is going to have to resort to Democrat tactics and get supporters to vote over and over and over again? How many of those voters are going to be dead people?
Ah yes, if you cannot make any cogent factual argument then make an ad hominem attack instead.
How very Trumpian of you.
