Schnorkles posted:Interesting sidenote: Rubio as of February 1st was down to only 5m on hand [down from 10.5m at the end of December] and his rate of donations did not increase at all during January. Well he's supposed to pick up Jeb's donor base but since this is the cycle of unsupposed to, we'll see.

Canada(my homeland) is going to get invaded under the Trumpreich isnt it? zoux posted:Well he's supposed to pick up Jeb's donor base but since this is the cycle of unsupposed to, we'll see. That money is gone and I think those donors are burned for the most part. Could see the Koch brothers and Adelson finally step up though.

The Nastier Nate posted:My guess has been that while Trump is losing ground with latino voters, he will pull very high numbers with black voters (for a republican obviously), has anyone done any polling on this? Problem: a lot of actual white supremacists are big Trump backers (they've actually been robocalling for him) and he's so far been unwilling to disavow even the craziest members of his base. Also his base contains all of the most antiblack portions of the Republican Party (look at the South Carolina polling re: slavery) and anything he says that's positive about the black community is going to enrage those people. He can't say he wants jobs programs for the inner city for example because that's a huge turnoff to a big chunk of his voters. Once he starts pivoting for the general though who knows? And yes, there is recent polling, from February, that estimates his share of the black vote as 4-12% which is historically very consistent with Republican candidates in non-Obama years (with Obama it was more like 5%). Chances are with Obama still in the picture and openly backing the Democratic nominee it's likely to be somewhere more than 4% and less than 10%.

Glenn Beck is playing the White Nationalist pro-Trump robo-calls saying they are from the Trump campaign. E: I was wrong - he's saying they had nothing to do with this, but using the point that Ted Cruz doesn't get a PASS on his Robocalls!

WampaLord posted:Just because you support Trump doesn't make you a racist. Yeah, that's fair I guess. Though I would say that if you are black and poor you will probably benefit more under Trump's nationalism then Hillary's neoliberalism. His prejudice seems to be squarely focused on mexican illegal immigrants (discounting those news stories from the 70's).

Glenn Beck is currently trying to raise funds for Keep The Promise 1 on his show. E: According to Beck the following things are over if Trump is elected: The Republican Party, The Conservative movement, The Constitution, and maybe America.

The radical notion that the American government should serve the needs of American citizens and legal residents first is not racism.

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:my guess is it's just confirmation that his net worth is a lot lower than he claims, which would only surprise you if you have not been paying attention at all this would be my guess too. hasn't he sued several people for claiming he isn't worth as much as he says? the worst it can do is make him look like a liar, which has been one of his own big attacks, and self-aggrandising, which everyone already knows. plus, lets face it, it's not like the "run government like a business, art of the deal" stuff is what is actually getting him support.

I agree that Trump hasn't been spouting any of the typical Republican dog-whistles towards black people. I think at this point, most people realize (or at least Trump realizes) that "racism against black people" isn't something you can get away with on a national level.

The Trump pivot to the center come April will be a thing of beauty. Political Science professors will teach entire courses and write textbooks about it for generations to come. He's already been dipping his toes in the water with Planned Parenthood and foreign policy. After he's done with the primary he'll cannonball in to the deep end of the pool calling for the heads of bank CEO's and pushing major infrastructure projects.

Joementum posted:Keep in mind that, due to the way delegates are assigned, a portion of Trump's pledged delegates will be party members who don't actually support Trump. In a deadlocked convention scenario, very possible that he has a plurality of delegates, but a minority of supporters in the room. True, but how many of those Cruz and Rubio folks are gonna be activists reluctant to go along with an Establishment screwjob? It'd have to be talked into a lot of them individually

He doesn't need the majority, he just needs to peel off enough voters to make up for most hispanics turning out against him. Black people are actually more conservative on average but they would of course never vote for a Generic Republican because Republicans hate and fear them. Trump is not a Generic Republican and he's not out to gently caress them over, and to be frank there is little love between the black and hispanic populations.
