    Considering that they arent' constantly complain that they are victims of fake news, that they aren't convinced that the FBI/Deep State agents are plotting against them and that they don't believe that at least 3 million illegal voters voted in 2016, I'd say they're outnumbered by the Trumpists.

    Election results: Trump 31 states , including FOUR of the SEVEN with populations over 10,000,000.
    Hillary 19 states.


    It is the STATES who elect the POTUS, not the easily manipulated popular vote...thank God our Founders were that prescient...

    Except Texas, he won the three others with less than 0.5% of majority.

    But you're free to believe Trump is the president the majority wants.

    Correct. What the Left fails to comprehend about south of the border immigrants and Hispanic-American citizens both is that vast numbers of them aspire to enter the middle class of this nation; which also means that they strive to identify and adopt middle class virtues and value systems; such as hard work and family structure and -- yes -- patriotism and Mom and Apple Pie or Mom and home made tamales. Thus they are going to support the party and the president that makes it more likely that they are going to achieve their goals and retain what they earn after the fact. This is why outside of socialistic California, Hispanic-American citizens tend to support Trump.

    Here is another poll for you to be curious about Pero. Maybe you can come up with some alternative polling to help Bo the Peep save face.


    PRESIDENT TRUMP Tops Obama in Approval Numbers at Same Point in His Presidency....

    I've always went by RCP averages. According to RCP Trump's approval is at 43.0%. RCP averages includes the Harris/Harvard poll plus nine others.

    https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_trump_job_approval-6179.html

    Obama's RCP average on 4 July 2010 was 46.7 approval/46.4% disapproval. See graph below the polls of his last days in office.

    https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_obama_job_approval-1044.html

    Comparing Trump's approval to Obama's may be good for the ego, but I'm more interested in things like voter enthusiasm for the up coming midterms. Enthusiasm is sky high for both parties.

    https://www.politico.com/story/2018/06/20/poll-voter-enthusiasm-trump-655682

    Republicans want to get out and vote to support Trump, Democrats are eager to get out and vote against Trump. Advantage Democrats since they still have the larger base. It may come down to independents whose enthusiasm is low when it comes to turning out to vote. They dislike both parties. Independents only have a 17% favorable view of congressional Democrats vs. 19% for congressional Republicans. Questions 85A and 85B.

    https://d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.net/cumulus_uploads/document/9gtye70ttc/econTabReport.pdf

    I suspect only about a 20-25% turnout among independents. They don't hate or love Trump as Democrats and Republicans do. They don't like either major party either. The GOP needs to win independents to make up for the Dems having the larger base. If independents don't show up to vote, that is another Democratic advantage..

    Well you should have looked up Repub Voter enthusiasm. Now they will be even more with the SCOTUS pic. Also, even the left has admitted, Trump is polling higher in states than National averages. So if I was you, I would be wary of those National polls.

    Which you already know, I just don't go by polling. ;)

    It doesn't matter old buddy. Polls are but a snap shot of where things stands today. Polls by themselves on the 4th of July, months ahead of the midterm doesn't tell you much of what will happen then. But throwing the numbers aside, it's the trends one can gleam from the polls that do shed some light on what might happen in the future.

    My point being is the Democratic Party still has the larger base which it has had since the Great Depression and FDR and the fact independents aren't enthused at all to vote. They're totally disgusted with both parties. I would take notice of the 44 GOP House incumbents that decided not to seek reelection. Open seats are far more easier to win or switch parties than is beating an incumbent. I do think the 44 Republicans not seeking reelection is a record number for the Republicans.

    Yes, the ordinary Latinos crossing the border are likely to end up supporting Trump and other advocates for small limited government and economic growth.

    The DP and RINOs will probably continue to enjoy the support of the thugs.

    It is bad for the DP and its ilk now. And it will get much worse for our corrupt partisan hacks - black America is waking up to the DP scam.

    "You really think Latinos coming over here to kumbaya with you, think again. Think you only gotta worry about Europeans, think again. These Latinos with their gangs are the new KKK for many of brothers and sisters on the West Coast. And our gangs aren't anywhere close in numbers compared theirs.

    And I bet somebody gonna come in here and say "Not all Latinos are like that."

    And I say, "Does it have to be when a Black city becomes a Latino city overnight?"

    ""The way I hear these knuckleheads tell it, they don't want their neighborhoods infested with blacks, as if it's an infestation," says respected Los Angeles gang expert Tony Rafael, who interviewed several Latino street gang leaders for an upcoming book on the Mexican Mafia, the dominant Latino gang in Southern California. "It's pure racial animosity that manifests itself in a policy of a major criminal organization."

    The DP has always been the party of deadly systemic ideological racism in America.
    Democrats are catching on and walking away from the crooked DP establishment - "in Droves"

    Very true, I have seen it up close for years-the straight up tribal warfare in these cities.

    They also hold very un-PC views that would simply melt any pajama boy.

    BLUE WAVE? Democrats Underperforming With Hispanic Voters.

    Despite the president’s hard-line immigration policies, Republican candidates are running competitively in many Hispanic-heavy states and congressional districts.”​

    I’m not sure about that word “despite,” but here’s more:

    Rep. Will Hurd of Texas once looked like one of the most vulnerable House Republicans, representing a border district where Hispanics make up 70 percent of the population—a seat Hillary Clinton carried by 4 points in 2016. Hurd has long been an independent GOP voice, emerging as a critic of Trump’s border-wall proposals and a supporter of a path to citizenship for Dreamers. But, as Democrats frequently bring up, he’s also a congressman whose partisan affiliation will help keep Republicans in charge of the House.

    He’s in surprisingly good shape as he vies for a third term against Democrat Gina Ortiz Jones. Despite holding one of the 25 GOP seats that Clinton carried, he’s not on the list of The Cook Political Report’s most endangered 31 members. His Texas colleagues John Culberson and Pete Sessions, representing suburban Houston and Dallas districts where Republicans traditionally dominate, are in deeper trouble. It’s a crystal-clear sign that the anti-Trump anger is concentrated within whiter, affluent suburban communities, not the Hispanic battlegrounds with the mos
    t at stake.​

    Much more at the link.

    LOL....I was just going to post this to @perotista


    There are also plenty of other clues suggesting Hispanic voters won’t be rushing to the polls this November. In a special election to fill the vacant seat of former Rep. Blake Farenthold of Texas last Saturday, there were few signs of a Democratic wave. The reliably Republican district is majority-Hispanic, yet GOP candidates on the ballot tallied the same 60 percent vote share that Trump did in 2016. There were no signs of increased Hispanic engagement—even with the border crisis raging not far away.

    Those results mirror the results from the March Texas primaries, in which the Democrats’ Senate nominee Beto O’Rourke, a progressive favorite, badly underperformed in many border towns with large Hispanic populations. O’Rourke carried 87 percent of the vote in millennial-friendly Travis County (Austin), but fell well short of a majority in most counties along the border.

    Move to the West Coast, and the results look similar. One of the Democrats’ must-win targets in California, the seat of retiring Rep. Ed Royce, is looking surprisingly competitive. Even though this is a plurality-Hispanic district that Clinton comfortably carried, a recent poll commissioned by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee found Republican Young Kim leading Democrat Gil Cisneros by 2 points (45-43 percent). It’s another sign that Hispanics may not be turning out to vote at a level commensurate to their representation.

    Florida is offering an even bigger shock to the Democrats’ system, given its perennial battleground status. In the state’s marquee race pitting Gov. Rick Scott against Sen. Bill Nelson, the governor’s standing with Hispanic voters is keeping him competitive despite the difficult political environment for Republicans. Two recently released polls show Scott, a longtime Trump ally, tallying noticeably higher popularity scores than the president in Florida. One poll, conducted by CBS News, shows Nelson leading by only 1 point among Hispanics (37-36 percent) while an NBC/Marist survey showed Nelson with a 10-point lead (52-42 percent) among the demographic. Either outcome shows Scott significantly outperforming Trump, who lost the Hispanic vote in Florida by a whopping 27 points in 2016 (and still carried the state).

    Meanwhile, these results show that a critical mass of Hispanic voters are willing to prioritize other issues—like the growing economy—in choosing congressional candidates.....snip~
