Yesterday we had 15 Percent of the HRC supporters say they will vote Trump in Nov. Purely anecdotal, and it is a problem if you are HRC... and CNN did this interview in WV and I talked to a similar lady in San Diego a few months ago.
She had a HRC for president on the old El Camino, and I mean ancient, and a Trump for President bumper sticker with a HRC for President one, shall we say this reporter went WHIPLASH.. she was white, and in her late 70s. I foolishly thought, this has to be a his and her El Camino. Nope. She was going to vote for HRC in my primary June 7, becuase she needs to stop the commie. those were her words. Look at the age again. I truly get it ok. Then she proudly said she could not vote for HRC in November. Why? Morals, the Clintons are amoral folk. And we cannot have them in the WH again.
I filed that one as a mental note, and yesterday when CNN interviewed an older woman in WV, reporter was just as confused as initially I was, but she said almost the same words, I was dying. It is like did they find a clone or what? The other question is... how much of this is out there for real? That is the relevant question.
But yes, some of the red baiting has worked. Just not with the 65 and under crowd? Maybe 55 and under?
