Don't laugh at the GOP. Trump can win. America IS that brain-damaged and dickish.

6. Van Jones makes a huge mistake

He is comparing a primary of undesirable candidates were trump was the least undesirable to the republican base. To GE where there is an actual choice to make and where the electorate was already more favorable to the Dem candidate. Two completely different electorates. In the Republican primaries the portion of the electorate that most reviles trump was not represented at all. The only electorate that was represented already had a shrinking portion of the GE pie and Trump is only making the GE numbers worse. He is not improving any of them. He is alienating every minority out there to levels never before seen and his standing with women is not any better.

President Barack Obama won the two-party vote among female voters in the 2012 election by 12 points, 56% to 44%, over Republican challenger Mitt Romney. Meanwhile, Romney won among men by an eight-point margin, 54% to 46%.

Donald Trump's image among U.S. women tilts strongly negative, with 70% of women holding an unfavorable opinion and 23% a favorable opinion of the Republican front-runner in March. Trump's unfavorable rating among women has been high since Gallup began tracking it last July, but after rising slightly last fall, it has increased even further since January.

Meanwhile with men he is at 58% possitive with 36% negative. By comparison leads 49 percent to 43 percent among men while trump vs clinton While he gets more male votes than Clinton (45% to 43%)

So while he is getting a much smaller portion of women he is also getting a smaller portion of men. None of the numbers add up for him none of them. Van Jones Doesn't get this because he is using republican party only data to make a comparison with the full electorate. Horrible sky is falling nonsense with no basis whatsoever in reality.
