Whoa... 40-37 is pretty dominating.:crazy:

Romney won independents 50-45 against a much better candidate than Clinton and still lost the election by 4. Given the numbers disadvantage for Republicans, losing indepdendents and winning the election is almost impossible.

No they haven't. You're just falling back on the part of the speech you heard today about the housing applications. This guy has been high profile for literally 30+ years and the real racist talk didn't start until 6 months ago.

In 1992 the New Jersey Casino Control Commission fined Trump and the Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino*$200,000 in 1992 because managers would remove African-American card dealers at the request of a certain big-spending gambler.

“When Donald and Ivana came to the casino, the bosses would order all the black people off the floor,” Kip Brown, a former employee at Trump’s Castle"

“I think the guy is lazy,” Trump said of a black employee, according to O’Donnell. “And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.”

In 1996, 20 African Americans in Indiana*sued Trump*for failing to honor a promise to hire mostly minority workers for a riverboat casino on Lake Michigan.


When Trump was serving as the president of his family’s real estate company, the Trump Management Corporation, in 1973, the Justice Department sued the company for alleged racial discrimination against black people looking to rent apartments in Brooklyn, Queens and Staten Island.
The lawsuit charged that the company quoted different rental terms and conditions to black rental candidates than it did with white candidates, and that the company lied to black applicants about apartments not being available. Trump called those accusations “absolutely ridiculous” and sued the Justice Department for $100 million in damages for defamation.
Without admitting wrongdoing, the Trump Management Corporation settled the original lawsuit two years later and promised not to discriminate against black people, Puerto Ricans or other minorities. Trump also agreed to send weekly vacancy lists for his 15,000 apartments to the New York Urban League, a civil rights group,*and to allow the NYUL to present qualified applicants for vacancies in certain Trump properties.
Just three years after that, the Justice Department sued the Trump Management Corporation again for allegedly discriminating against black applicants by telling them apartments weren’t available.

That's not even accounting for the fact that Trump in underperforming in every demographic that but uneducated whites. Trump is the first Republican candidate to underperform in the educated white demographic since Gerald Ford.

Independents only make up 29% of the electorate. Women on the other hand make up 53% of the electorate and she leads them 60-30. Obama only won 55% of women in 2012. by getting that extra 5% of women she closed the gap.

I'll put it like this. If Trump and Clinton walked onto a campus of an HBCU Clinton wouldn't have any problems. Trump can tell people all he wants that he cares about African Americans but at the end of the day he has no credibility. And getting on nation tv and saying that African American have no education, no jobs and describes the entire group as uneducated, unemployed and desperate doesn't help him. It just pisses of the entire black middle class. The ones who were more likely to hear Trump out. Trumps inability to speak about issues that affect the African American community at African American University's comes as tone deaf and turns educated blacks off.

Clinton hit 50% nationally in another poll on the 23rd so LawGator is happy. I'm not a lib. I'm just hoping Trump loses because he's everything Conservatism doesnt stand for. And like Alexander Hamilton said “If we must have an enemy at the head of government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible.”
