Questioning Hillary's Strength Against Trump is *NOT* "Trump Humping". It's a Fact.

Hillary and Trump are pretty darn even in most of the polls these days, and it's been that way for months. Hillary is going to have a very difficult time in the GE *if* she becomes the nominee. You know who consistently does much better in the polls? He-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named. You know, the other candidate running for the Democratic nomination that the media, political establishment, and the owners of this board seem fit to ignore.

Btw, "Trump Humping" is such a stupid term.

The March 9th New York Times poll shows Mondale leading Reagan 52-43.

Trump's base is not going to expand beyond the craziest of the GOP base.

Even Trump winning the GOP nomination is at this point more of a theory than anything else. Once teams start to take real sides, as opposed to hypothetical ones, the polls will be more reliable.

Until then, we should relax. Clinton or Sanders will do fine against Trump, if it comes to that.

There is no credible argument showing Trump can win, he needs 40%+ of the Latino vote. He needs 64%+ of the white vote. Republican women say they'd vote for Clinton by 25%. Milennials break for Clinton 90%. These are the demographic facts that make Trumps winning impossible.

Every time someone "questions" Clinton vs Trump it's pure insinuation, there is no credible analysis. The people laughably saying Trump has minority support just because an AA person attends his rally, pointing to his Nevada caucus result to prove he has Latino support, just rolling on the floor laughing hilarious.

REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Rude insulting & filthy .
There are a lot of filthy hashtags online.
DU isn't the place for such disgusting & denegrating wording the poster tries to insert and pull off as something relating to serious political discussion. Even for GDP.
Clean it up .
Nasty & juvenile OP.
Please hide & remove
Thank you

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Mar 21, 2016, 06:10 PM, and the Jury voted 1-6 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: The owner of this site himself uses the term, "Trump Humping". The alerted post is not Trump Humping. I think the member is pointing out Trump and Clinton both have serious unfavorable numbers... I don't consider that campaigning for Trump. I don't see where this post warrants a hide.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Nah.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No one is anyone's nanny on here. Don't alert on a otherwise innocuous post because the language doesn't suit your tender sensibilities.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

Trump is hated by the Democrats and by many in his own party. Hillary is hated by the Republicans
and by many in her own party. The Indies are the biggest group of voters in the country now. The
majority of the Indies favor Bernie.
Go Bernie!
