Wait a minute. So many posters stated in the summer of 2016 that Hillary was just a clone of Obama, and Obama was a Kenyan-born Communist - and she won the popular vote.

Donald is the new Hillary. She had a base as well. Many, many people think Donald is a clown. And how are we so sure the Democratic nominee will be seen as some great Socialist demon. Sure, Fox will play that angle but don't be so sure the voting public isn't looking for some new policies. Many though they'd get that from Donald, but he's proven to be in way over his head. I think many voters will be seeking someone who can actually get something done.

The mid-terms is probably a good guide.

hehe - you need to talk to people other than other white, middle-aged males.
