'We're outta here!' Students WALK OUT on Trump in remote New Hampshire college town as they decide 45 minutes is enough

"...Most of those who didn't stay for the entire speech appeared to be college students. Some told DailyMail.com that they were not Trump supporters and were assigned to attend the rally by a political science professor.

Trump's presentation was largely the recycled stuff of stump speeches. By the 45-minute mark, some of the younger crowd began streaming out.

Fifteen minutes later, large empty spaces were visible where rally-goers had stood cheek-to-jowl.

'We figured, "We've been here as long as our class would last, so - you know, we're outta here",' said a student named Tyler who sported a Plymouth hoodie. 'I wouldn't listen to a professor for more than 45 minutes, right?'.....

I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much denial of concrete reality on the part of any Freeper. I can only hope you come out of this with your head on straight, and a clear eye toward the future.

Go back and look at the predictions of the Iowa outcome in the live thread. First prediction starts at post 3.

He had the %$#D@&^# governor and an entire industry working against him! It’s a miracle he won.

you do understand that 10 percent of the 1500 student weren’t Trump voters in the first place they were probably Hillary or Bernie voters who were curious about seeing Trump because they were already on campus?.. and I’m betting the vast majority of the other 1350 students cheered Trump

an absolutely stupid article but I’m not surprised who posted it.. next?

A miracle? Do you not even think about what you type? Cruz had by and large the evangelical votes all locked up. Nothing miraculous about it. What happened was more people participated, ‘voted’ than prior years. Why must everything get spun.

NH is a very Liberal state. If Cruz comes in the top 3, it will be a miracle.

Kasich is polling ahead of Cruz in NH. And Jeb is close behind.

Trump Appears Off His Game Two Days Before New Hampshire Vote, Observers Say

"...Trump's rally at Plymouth State University in Plymouth, New Hampshire, seemed to fall flat with many of the students and undecided voters in the crowd.

Forty-five minutes into his speech, a steady stream of attendees were seen leaving as Trump railed against U.S. trade policy....

Devin-Jean McCormack is an independent voter and graduate student torn between Trump and Democrat Bernie Sanders. She called Trump's speech scattered. Her mother, Louise McCormack, agreed, but the professor at the college says she is leaning toward voting for Trump......."

yeah and that’s a problem with Cruz because how in the world is he going to win purple states in the general election when you are already excusing bad showings because the states aren’t Conservative enough?.. there are a load of states Obama won twice that need to switch to Cruz in a general election and it’s just not going to happen.. you just explained the problem with nominating Cruz very well in your post

grasping at straws....

(100% Trumpster here). No, it's not. The campaign has to get out those voters. A lot of folks who recognize Trump's impressive leadership and organizational ability are glued to the TV. Trump's masterful campaign is a nation-wide Candidate Apprentice game. They've got to get those voters out to the polls, not just glued to the TV waiting for the results.

Getting out the vote has to be treated like the phase where they get people to buy stuff. You know, when they get out in the street and almost drag people in. When they call all their friends and plead their case.

>> The term “low-information voter” may be too harsh, but I suspect that many Trump supporters feel the increased problems weighing them down but they can’t exactly identify the cause nor the origin of their problems.

Behold the complimentary psychoanalysis that explains our misguided support for Trump.

Hmmmm....you would think in that case, Huckabee and Santorum would have had a better showing than they did, seeing as they were the winners in 2008 and 2012.
