That would show that Hispanic-bashing is a really bad idea.

6. At what point does support get within the margin of error?

And his support among Hispanics could theoretically go into negative numbers?

7. Excellent graphic from EarlG -

It doesn't help Trump either - that you have a GOP congressional candidate the likes of Donnelly in Calif..calling todays protesters commies and leftists..

Is this what it has come to...the gop calling anyone who protests their agenda commies and leftists...those protesters have NO respect for private property (Trumps venue today)....folk's - I implore you - Please, I beg you - vote..be sure you are registered..

9. Haha, our next president is going to be a Democrat!

Because republicans don't know what sort of Americans are US Citizens who vote! Their hatred blinds them to the real demographics of major swing states. They think brown people are immigrants!

10. Even better...

... Trump has inspired nearly two million new Hispanic voters to register. Eighty percent of those who register will be there on election day. They're signing up specifically to knock over the Republican Party.

17. Two Reasons Other than the Obvious:

1. Hispanics feel the rigged economy and uneven distribution more than many in this country.

2. Younger Hispanics don't care about abortion the way their parents do.

19. Yeah but I would have to think they see how the GOP has used them to agitate base fears

The repeated promotion of stories that clearly have the purpose of getting a Hispanic/Latino face on screen with a horrific crime. They also has branded all Hispanics as being or abiding crime. Repeat repeat repeat and their followers see being Hispanic as a crime and the proof of innocence is on the individual.

My 2 cents.

How can this election not be a blowout? They keep saying "It's going to be close."

Too terrifying, if so.

21. I read DU for freedom.

I think we should all vote free.
Social Security,
Free health care paid for by socialism (not communism).
Less working hours (more workers).

I could give a rat's ass to whether Hillary or
Trump is the next president.

I want Bernie!!!
