May 5, 201610 yr I have no doubt that many GOPers will vote for Trump because they dislike Hillary. I understand that. However, the flip side of this coin is that even more lukewarm Dems, independents, moderate R's (primarily females) will vote for Hillary because they view a Trump presidency as downright scary. Republican women dislike Hillary more than the men.
May 5, 201610 yr Plenty of reports about Rs saying they will vote for HRC. I wouldn't say most of them are legitimate. Most are unnamed republicans. If you want to say people will stay home. That's a strong possibility. But 25 years of dislike doesn't get erased. I'm sure there might be a handful or very small sliver. But there won't be a wave of republicans voting for Hillary by the fall. The likelihood of Bernie supporters voting for Trump is as good or better.
May 5, 201610 yr Republican women dislike Hillary more than the men. We see so many women at Trump rallies, don't we?
May 5, 201610 yr We see so many women at Trump rallies, don't we? I don't look , watch or participate in Trump rallies. I just know from my experience and I have a lot that Republican women dislike Hillary very strongly. It's that divide the most democrats ignore when they talk about the war on women. They ignore the fact that their are many women in this country who don't agree with their platform and try and pin women into a box. For example I habe sisters, aunts , a mother and cousins. All are pro life and don't get how Democrats can paint that movement anti woman. I get if you live in a bubble you think all women hold all issues with the same opinion.
May 5, 201610 yr I do not know one Republican that will vote for Hillary. Not one. Trump is losing his home state to Hillary by 26 points, yet nothing is offered from our Pachyderm friends save anecdotal, first-person accounts of alleged Trump support in the Bluegrass State that mean zilch on a national scale.

The likelihood of Bernie supporters voting for Trump is as good or better. Obviously we don't have the chance to survey everyone so it's anecdotal. I think a lot of women are like my wife. Not locked into one party. Cannot STAND HRC. Will vote for HRC because she is slightly better in her mind than Trump. My wife DESPISES HRC.

You better hope your 26 points holds TTP or its gonna be hard on you to stomach a Trump presidency. Remember he wont be the nominee.

According to CBS News: In a hypothetical November match-up between Trump and Clinton, among registered women voters, Clinton leads Trump 58-31 percent. (April poll.) By comparison, 42 percent of men would cast their ballots for Clinton versus 50 percent that would support Trump. (Don't forget -- women make up close to 53 percent of the U.S. electorate.) What was the gender gap in '12? Romney over Obama by 7 points among men and Obama over Romney by 11 points among women. If Trump doesn't close the gender gap, we're looking at a Hillary landslide in November.

You should move to ohio if you would like to keep urinating on KY like we are stupid for not wanting to crown a felon queen of the USA.

Listen you are speaking to a guy who has doubted Trump and spoke out against Trump for most the last year I have egg on my face. What I do know is Trump has an unfavorability rating from women in to mid 60 %. But Hillary has 58% unfavorably rating. They havent started campaigning against each other and Hillary's support doesn't seem solid based on that. I don't put anything past Trump's voodoo at this point. Polls now mean nothing.
