The breadth of his appeal is simply astonishing. If he survives to election day, this could well be the biggest blowout in US history.

I’m still waiting to see Trump’s alleged general election “victory” broken down into concrete data points.
In 2012, Mitt Romney was the first presidential candidate in American history to get 59% of the white vote - and lose!
Are you guys expecting Trump to get more than 59% of the white vote? At least 40% of Republicans have an unfavorable view of Trump. How is that going to happen?
In 2012, Romney got 27% of the Hispanic vote. After all the degrading things Trump has said about Mexicans, do you really think Trump can get more than 27% of Hispanics?
In 2012, Romney got 44% of the women’s vote. After all the degrading things he has said about women, how can Trump do better than that?
In 2012, Romney got 6% of the Black vote.
I think Trump will do better than that. But he will need at least 30% of the Black vote to win. And Republicans have received less than 30% of the Black vote for 15 consecutive presidential elections!
