Donald Trump’s Lead Explained in Two Sentences…and How to Make It Even Better
Zionists4Trump.com ^ | 10/20/2015 | Zionists 4 Trump

Posted on 10/20/2015 11:55:30 AM PDT by Ziva

The blue-col­lar wing of the Re­pub­lic­an primary elect­or­ate has con­sol­id­ated around one can­did­ate. The party’s white-col­lar wing re­mains frag­men­ted.

“It’s a chal­lenge to Re­pub­lic­ans that nobody has con­sol­id­ated the col­lege-gradu­ate vote against Trump,” says Glen Bol­ger, a long­time GOP poll­ster skep­tic­al of the front-run­ner.

Even in a sprawl­ing field of 15 can­did­ates, Trump has opened a wide lead among Re­pub­lic­ans without a col­lege edu­ca­tion al­most every­where. Those voters, polls show, are re­cept­ive to his hard-line mes­sage on im­mig­ra­tion and to his op­pos­i­tion to free trade, and they ex­press the most ali­en­a­tion about Wash­ing­ton and the coun­try’s over­all dir­ec­tion—mak­ing them a wel­com­ing audi­ence for Trump’s broad­er anti-es­tab­lish­ment mes­sage and per­sona. ...

Bol­ger said, “The guy has shown he has a bet­ter polit­ic­al touch than most people ex­pec­ted, prob­ably be­cause most of the pun­dits think with the mind of col­lege gradu­ates, rather than what the less well-edu­cated voters will re­act to.”

It sounds like a winning strategy. Trump is roughly matching the college graduate level of support with the second place candidate, while running away with blue-collar support. More college graduate support can be developed with information and persuasion.

You may wonder who is the political consultant quoted in the article. Glen Bolger is pollster and strategist for GOP candidates and ImmigrationWorks USA, a business pro-immigration group that works with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce on common issues.

Many #college graduates do support #Donald Trump, just not with a blowout level of support. To show this support, a new Facebook group has been started so college graduate supporters can show their strength.
Join the new group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/CollegeGraduatesForDonaldTrump/ to show our strength. Are you a Trump support who is a college graduate?

This college-graduate supporter of Trump loves being insulted by the GOP establishment like Glen Bolger. What do you expect from a person who names his own company Public Opinion Strategies? Who uses @POSglen as his Twitter handle?

Amazing how the jokes oftentimes write themselves.

I don’t know any blue collar people who are as generally stupid as the college grads I know. Something about “higher education” seems to addle the wits.

I’m not sure that he could insult GOP voters more if he tried. Just another GOPe sycophant rampaging through the forest of cluelessness.

My parents made sure I was very well educated in part so that I could take my part in protecting and defending the constitution

Trump seems pretty good to me just for taking a strong - well - overpowering against this antiamerican media

So...

Trump is pro Israel, the Bush’s were Pro Saudis and even let Bin Laden’s family leave the USA just after 911, when Bin Laden was taking credit for 3,000 dead Americans.

Lots of money was given to Abbas the terrorist by the Bush’s.

Now Israel has no legal basis not to just toss the PA out of Israel. Oslo is over Abbas killed it.

My experience for 40 years, back to the time that I was in college

My daughter - a millenial and a college graduate - took one look at his announcement speech and said, ‘I’m voting for him.’ My son, another millenial and five years younger says he and all his friends are voting for Trump. Once again, the political experts don’t know what they’re talking about.

This Ph.D. supporter of Trump, along with one of my Ph.D. colleagues, finds it humorous as well.

There's more opportunity for leftist indoctrination.

Guys take sociology to meet girls, and fall asleep in class. The repetitive BS from the leftist professor seeps in, and they don't even realize they are being programmed.

Seriously, the solution is to go to a private university in a conservative state, where the alumni donors (successful businessmen and women) don't put up with this crap. Unfortunately, not everyone can afford it.

Never confuse intelligence with education - they are very different.

What an arrogant twit Glen Bolger is. This points out that proximity to Washington, DC is a good indicator of incompetence.
