I'm more scared of how many supporters Hillary Clinton has.
Are you genuinely scared knowing how many supporters Donald Trump has?
He's going to be our next pres. Might as well get used to it.
The thing is he doesn't have that many supporters. Only 2/3 of people eleigble ot vote are even registered to vote. Of those register, 28% are Republicans. I cannot find the polling numbers for the primaries so far, only that they are breaking records. On average only 16% of those regestered in a party show up for primaries, so even if you double it to 32% that is not a lot of people. Of those turning out he is only getting about 35% of those votes. When you break it all down less than 2% of those eligible to vote have voted for him. It is just his supporter are big loudmouths just like him.
Frankly I blame the media for this. The have been giving Trump an inordinate amount of press time because the feel he his a train weck waiting to happen. Instead of crashing and burning, he is gaining speed.
That might go the other way though ! So many are afraid of Trump that they may vote for Hillary as the lesser of the two evils. Whether it really is or not remains to be seen.
You can't be scared of what's expected. More than half of his supporters has a high school education or less. About only 10% of Trump supporters make over 80k. I'd figure they're probably oil workers, considering 80k is roughly the starting salary around here and the people around here tend to have bachelor degrees in things that are actually useful.
Remember that if you consider yourself average, there's still half a population that's below average.
Those below average people are going to say this country sucks, because their life sucks. Then comes a reality TV star, which statistically appeal to such people. And ta da! We have a winner.
He's not the president we need. He's the president we deserve!
We have to hit rock bottom at some point. Maybe it'll be a wake up call when his voters realize their life still sucks after voting him in. *shrugs*
Terrified.
It seems to me that the people that are spending the most money in opposition to Trump are exactly those that have been responsible for bringing this country down! If I had to choose a side it wouldn't the side that is supporting Hillary.
