You look at these crowds, you look at the enthusiasm and dedication and then contrast that with Hillary. I am telling you right now, the pollsters and pundits simply do not get it. They are trying to compare turnouts to that of 2012, but it will not work. This election is about those who have felt left out, ignored, taken for granted, forgotten, even despised.

That is what this election is all about, this wave of anger at DC. It really is not about Trump. Trump is merely riding the wave.

How many times have we heard about people who have not voted in years, decades or ever, but are voting for Trump? How many white-working class voters who normally go with the Democrats, are going with Trump? How many black voters, who have never voted GOP before but are fed up with their tough lives and all the BS promises from the Democrats, are voting for Trump? My parents were union folks. Voted Democrat their whole lives, but are supporting Trump. I have quite a few black friends, who have never voted GOP before, but are voting Trump.

We are seeing a tsunami folks that will shock and surprise DC. The voter turnout will not be at all about party affiliation, but education and economic levels. Those with blue-collar jobs or only a high school education are leading the way. You honestly believe the DC/pundit/media elite rub shoulders with them? They have no idea what goes on outside their bubble.

That is why when Trump wins, it will be a shock to them, but not to us.

30,000 are watching the event in Grand Rapids, Michigan right now, and Trump isn’t even there yet.
