From your link....

Thus the GOP has everything to gain with a Trump candidacy, especially with a Republican congress, as he would ensure that genuinely conservative “Reagan Democrat” policies would be implemented without a veto and the country would be back on its traditional center-right path.

Trump’s trump card is that alone amongst the other GOP candidates he has significant appeal to “blue collar Democrats” and “Perot voters” as well as bringing to the polls the Evangelicals who stayed home in 2012. His message of “jobs for Americans” has potential game changing ramifications in the Electoral college. (Map 3)


Much more great info, at link.

Thanks for the ping, when.

The irony is that the GOP have been complaining that they need a bigger tent party for years. Trump is expanding the tent, but it isn't the type of expansion the GOP establishment wants. The GOP establishment seems to prefer a huge influx of foreigners -- like the Dems.

Trump is going to put a lot of supposedly “safe” blue states into play and that is going to cause significant problems for the democrats down ticket, in addition to giving him a new address in DC. But I agree. NY will go with their “native son” and turn red for the first time since 1984.

“Trump is going to put a lot of supposedly “safe” blue states into play and that is going to cause significant problems for the democrats down ticket,’

The biggest problem is that there is less ability of the demodogs to steal election through voter fraud. If more areas area close they would run out of buses.

hope you are right, I just the other day read an article on that subject. Trump is loved in Manhattan and in fact a lot of the black areas. Also remember Trump IS NY and Hillary is a lowly carpetbagger from Arkansas.

GOD Bless America!

TRUMP is not one dimensional and *crossover* is the pay off.

The “weeds” loving candidates put voters to sleep. Using sleeper discussions to pander to only one segment of one base, it’s going to be over sooner than later.

I’m starting to wonder why even Hillary bothers to run against TRUMP, never mind our 15 man field. She can’t like hearing about Michigan.

The folks are FED UP!

TRUMP, 2016.

Cruz has virtually no friends in the Senate to ever hope to hold the gavel, unfortunately.

Indeed....not a dime’s worth of difference.

That is so much better than rich donor dependent Ted Cruz pushing for the cheap labor express.

Cruz pushing path to legal status for illegals:

Cruz pushing for 500% expansion of H1-B visa cheap foreign workers from India:

What about California? It's like a watermelon, with a blue rind (coastal areas, esp. metro SF Bay Area/Silicon Valley and Los Angeles metro) and a red interior. How would Democrat vote fraud play out here, or would they keep the state legitimately? What say you?

Very nice shot! I like the sober, determined TRUMP best, in interviews and photos, alike. This one is pretty serious too. Nice.

Another Hellfire missile in the Trump arsenal.

I have no idea. I know that when I was a high school student in Texas back in the 1970’s a lot of the legal Hispanic hated the illegals. If that is still true who know? I know that a Caucasian friend in San Diego is a Trump supporter and he is a democrat.

At least we can dream
