I have to say the Democrats' arrogance in this thread is quite amusing. In July 2015, a poll on this board asked people who they believe will win the Republican nomination in 2016. The results were as follows:
Sure. I admit I misjudged Trump for their primary, but that doesn't change the fact that Republican primaries have been toxic to pub chances in a general election for some time now. For people to somehow say that because a
moron like Trump can sweep a Republican primary, he will have a chance in the general election is equally as foolish. Trump is a goldmine of vulnerabilities on top of his lack of knowledge of
anything policy or government. He probably the most unfit candidate to have a chance at a nomination in generations.
After he wins the nomination, he will have to broaden his appeal on so many levels and it is a stretch to think he can pull that off, considering exactly how he managed to win the nomination in the first place
(assuming he does of course). He is a liar, a fraud, corrupt, severely lacking in any sort of decency or morals. He's a shining example of a rogue, aspiring plutocrat who
is exactly the kind of person the people say they are sick of!So if we're arrogant, then the only thing more arrogant, I suppose, is people who think Trump will have anything but a monumental and bloody climb to any sort of general election victory. Given everything that Trump is, does, and says, people shouldn't be faulted for thinking he will be soundly rejected by the majority of the American electorate.
