Lindsey Graham predicts Trump loss: ‘Reality is reality’

Posted on 08/18/2016 9:16:21 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. Lindsey Graham has predicted a massive loss for Donald Trump in November, saying the GOP presidential nominee has alienated voters to the point of no return. “Reality is reality,” the South Carolina Republican said Tuesday on WABC Radio’s Imus in the Morning, BuzzFeed first reported. “Mitt Romney got 27% of the Hispanic vote. By 2050, a majority of the country will be African-American, Hispanic, Asian, and others, and we’re losing demographically. We’ve gone from 44% with Bush to 27% with Romney, and I don’t think Donald Trump’s gonna get 20%,” Mr. Graham said. “The problems we’ve had with young women — he’s made it exponentially worse,” he continued. “So if we do lose, and the reason I think we’re going to lose, is because the demographic meltdown that came from harsh rhetoric and policies by Mr. Trump, making every problem we had in 2012 worse. It’s not about me not voting for Donald Trump, I’m not voting for Hillary Clinton, it is about America is changing and the party is being left behind.” “It breaks my heart because Hispanics are conservative, they’re entrepreneurial, they’re Catholics, they’re pro-life, they should be our voters, and we are driving them away,” Mr. Graham said. “Because nobody is going to vote for you, when you tell them you are going to deport their grandmother. And there is a difference between a meth dealer, a gang member, and a grandmother who has been here 30 years, working really hard raising a couple kids.”

Has Lindsey gotten anything right in the last five years?

ANYTHING?

“Let him come to S. Carolina — I’ll beat his brains out”.

Ergo, for Trump, this latest prediction is good news indeed.

But remember, in 2012 Obama wasn’t filling venues either. A friend was complaining that she couldn’t get a ticket to see Obama in Columbus. When they showed the crowd, the place wasn’t full. I wonder if we are being played.

Trump goes into the primary of this guy’s state, and trashes the sitting senator. Now how’s that for guts. He probably shouldn’t have done it to Walker, but Walker asked for it.

Your gut is correct. I may start putting up running commentary on how bad these media polls that are being skewed on purpose. There are still people here who believe these media polls. The pollsters have the same mindset as the people we see loaded on CNN and their daily talkee panels. They are people who are from the poli-sci wings and their students who put out much of these polls from liberal colleges: Marist(awful) Monmouth, Siena, Quinnipaic(them too), et cetera — you’re going to believe these guys against the much hated Trump? Oh please... LoL.

He is using Dem talking points. Saw it on Don lemon show. The “i cant talk about Donald Trump, because I am a Woman, and he insulted women. My brother is handicapped, and he insulted handicapped.” I knew this was scripted and shame on that woman who used her loved ones as a creative come back. Donald needs to address this quickly...they are all using this “insert” your own insult to fit the narrative line.

Unbelievable....Graham is a weak person. a Follower, not a leader.

A Republican isn’t always a Republican.

But his In Name Only credentials are impeccable.

No ... I don't think so ... your words compare correctly ... as words.

But the picture painted is not a true likeness.

Zero filled larg(er) areas because of music and flash ... it was easy to draw a crowd to an event.

Cankles isn't even trying because of her fear ...

She's afraid of being exposed, of being outed, of being assassinated, of truth, of conflict, of confrontation, of ...

the cankled one lives in fear.

“has alienated voters to the point of no return”

Not true. Trump’s positions are in agreement with most of the population and have now been well stated by him. He still personally irritates some voters and delivers yummy morsels to the left media. He can fix both of those things easily.

This from 0% Linda.

And he got how many votes during his presidential run?

Trump is tied in the polls now - so there.

Lindsey Graham, always the naysayer.

And a principal part of the “Never-Trump” cabal. Does the prospect of Herself as Commander in Chief not bring him the cold screaming willies in the middle of the night? It does for so many of us.

The Trump campaign can be a considerable positive for the House and Senate races this year, but it requires the swallowing of a great deal of false pride on the part of the Establishment Republicans, and they may not be able to make that intellectual leap.

But it is like being in a building that is burning down, and that building is “Liberal Dogma”. It is an ideology that is rapidly collapsing from all the little fires that they continue to start where none is necessary, and now are of control.

The demise of “Liberal Dogma” (fueled by cash from the George Soros international conspiracy) cannot come soon enough. And George Soros and all his family should be stripped of their US citizenship.

Ninety-seven percent of Republican voted against Lindsey Graham ... because everyone OUTSIDE of elites can’t stand the twerp... I have no clue why anyone outside of Graham’s district would give a hoot what he thinks about anything.
