Here’s the problem with all this coverage about how unpopular Donald Trump is

Via Wes


Hey, did you know that people actually hate Donald Trump? Yup, it's true. Women hate him.

Hispanics hate him. Millennials hate him. Mormons hate him. Republican National Committee members hate him. Heck, even white men don't like him that much.

What's that you say? He's winning the Republican presidential nominating contest? Never mind that. He'll surely falter in the general election. Because people hate him.

This, I suspect, is what the media sound like to many voters right now, as we bombard them with stories about how incredibly unpopular Trump actually is. We sound like your annoying, amateur movie critic friend who tries to convince you "nobody" liked the film that is No. 1 at the box office.

The argument just doesn't seem believable.

  1. Not only do Cruz and Trump not win against Hitlery, Kasich (??!?!) is the ONLY one who "polls" say can win. Pay no attention to the fact that he has won like ONE state in R primaries. They truly think we're stupid enough to believe them.

    1. Really. The only polls I have seen where a R is ahead of Hillary with Rubio, so I imagine the PTB will try to ram rod him in at the convention, but if they try/do, there will be hell to pay because I believe it will be the end of the Republican party and the birth of a more conservative one and Trump may run anyway. Saw one essay that said if Trump does run against Hillary they will pick someone to run a third party who will prevent either from winning enough electoral votes and then it will go the the House where they will pick an establishment R, probably Ryan.

  2. Polls and their 'results' have NOTHING to do with reality and everything to do with SHAPING OPINION. Those running things know that a HUGE portion of society simply cannot think for themselves. This group follows whatever they perceive to be the 'in group', the majority. If Satan himself were running and the media polls showed he was leading these morons would vote for him just to be part of
    the 'in group'. The reporting by the lame stream media whores and their constant assaults and lies about Trump are just part of the concerted effort to blind as many voters as possible with noise, smoke and hot air. Sad fact however is this type of faux news actually works....at least it did in the past so they continue to do it today. However I'm pretty sure the November results have already been calculated and programmed into the voting machines....and the results preordained.

    1. Hopefully they will do as bad a job on this as they did on his birth certificate. People have got to wake up one day.
