Hillary v. Trump
Hillary needs to build credibility among Reagan Democrats, to lure them back from Trump, who is getting most of his support from that demographic.
Trump needs to make inroads with suburban Rockefeller Republicans, who see Hillary as a centrist from with upper middle-class origins, i.e. one of them, and Trump as a potential loose cannon, a dangerous demagogue with his finger on the button.
Chances are that both of them are going to shape-shift and will be perceived differently by November to try to reach those audiences. Trump is going to tone it down and stress that he is a centrist, and Hillary is going to spend a lot of time in jeans rubbing elbows in American Legion and union halls with blue collar workers.
Thoughts?
