You really don't know Cenk or the TYT if you think they are supporters of Clinton.

He says: "America is pissed."

Unfortunately, mark my words, they're only getting started.

Hope I'm wrong.

Bush won the 2000 election by a mere 537 votes in Florida.

The hispanic/latino population has grown by 50%, in Florida, since then.

I don't think Trump ever even wanted to win the general election. Hillary will win..

And the taxpayers will lose, as always.

Compare to what? Hillary? either way we are screwed.

Map seems doable for Trump. He has to take Florida and Ohio specifically though. He loses Florida in any case he is done.

People are sick and tired but there are so few of us who actually give a crapload about our process of elections, nevermind who is running, to make any case for change. People are pissed... but most just grumble for a moment or two and go right back to their favorite TV show or game system and the machine rolls on.

It is as if it is all by design...

Exactly.

It is curious as to why Trump has been so crass and polarizing in expressing his positions on immigration.

Trump and his handlers have always known that winning Florida is key. Why he didn't take that under serious consideration is just beyond me.

It sure looks like he never wanted to win Florida to me.

He isn't for Trump we know that is a fact, so what is left?

One thing about Trump is he likes having his name talked about. He has done things just for the publicity. He may not even care about winning from the start although that might change due to ego and power seeking.

But it's too late. We are three months out from the election, and Trump is not winning over latinos/hispanics in Florida.

Don't be too sure about that

FLORIDA

Florida can always be close, look at 2000.

a reply to: Blue_Jay33

It just needs to look plausible after the election reforms that took place after the 2000 election.

a reply to: Blue_Jay33

I know. I brought up the 2000 race earlier in this thread.

The 2000 election is not a good election to use as an example.

The Supreme Court over-stepped their jurisdiction, in my opinion, and stopped the recount from continuing to it's final conclusion.

It was close regardless of how the Supreme Court ruled.

Indeed, it was. My point is that we cannot use that election on it's own as an example because the actual results are unknown.

Not only that, but we would also have to compare changes in demographics from 2000 to 2016. Has the minority population increased? Has more of the older, conservative generation passed away?

Lot's of things to consider when looking at Florida.

Lol I love this video. Guy realizes the midwest is nothing like the east or west coast. A lot less hipsters, a lot more blue collar unionized workers or workers who lost their jobs who typically vote dem, not this election.

Don't forget the primary blowout that took Rubio out of the running.

www.nytimes.com...

Trump had 1.08M votes and Hillary had 1.10M

BUT...

The GOP had 2.36M total votes and Dems had 1.70M total.

33% of the Dem votes were for Sanders.

I would like to think the enthusiasm is pointing to the GOP.

I am not talking as to whether he can win, just his reason behind his run.
