Trump isn't even that good in debates, Hillary will demolish him there.

If she does win Ohio, Illinois, Florida, and North Carolina... That is most certainly the nail in the coffin. But, we'll have to see what happens. Tuesday is going to be very, very interesting. I wish it were over already. Has early voting been going on in any of those states?

That's my point. This election is going, and is already beginning to, cause a big divide in America.

I don't think Trump is going to be the blow out many people have been expecting. It's obvious that he has made a number of white individuals extremely passionate. But there is also a vast amount of people who hate him and would turn out just to vote against him (and these rallies intensifying aren't helping things in the future). I don't see a future where he can successfully apologize to African Americans, Muslims, and Latinos at this point to tilt things in his favor. Far too much damage has been done. But Hillary is going to need to be extremely careful. Do NOT fall into his games. If she's lucky, he'll throw out that she is a huge bitch during the GE debates and the press would ruin him.

Yeah I think Ted would be better for Hillary. Less entertaining, but lots easier. Even though I like the entertainment aspect of this election and find it wayyy more intriguing than the past I've been able to experience, I don't want to take the risk of a Trump presidency.
What are the states like after tuesday? Are they in Cruz's favor? If Kasich can win Ohio and Rubio can win Florida, I think Trump's momentum could fall and cruz would have a better chance

We NEED to be realistic here. Trump is a serious divisive figure who has gained tremendous support from Americans, just because you don't surround yourself with a bubble of his supporters, doesn't mean they're not there.
He's a strong candidate who will say anything to get elected, he's dangerous. Hillary is not safe, she's not inevitable.

This is almost exactly what the CNN anchors said too, Tuesday will be one of the most interesting and important days of the election

I do like that this election has made Fox a much better news station. Probably because they have become aware of the monster they have created. I can't stand their political commentary but their actual news is really pretty good.

There aren't enough white men for Trump to win in the general.

People have been saying "Trump isn't even that good in debates," but you know, there are debates and Trump will bring them back and make them great again. Back to a time when people can celebrate with success like Trump Tower and freedom that has diminished, but soon it will return. Look at the polls. The polls say Trump is #1. These debates, you know, when people see them they will say "Trump for President" and that's how they will be great. Yes, we can. With your support, we can.

I agree, I think Hillary can absolutely demolish Cruz.

One of my best friends (gay white male from CT) is a Hillary/Trump supporter.

The only person I know that is supporting Trump is my grandmother but she is also losing her mind so I don't know if that is a fair person. The Republican side of my family is so disgusted by Trump and Cruz hijacking their party. Unless Rubio or maybe Kasich gets the nom, most of them plan on staying at home or swallowing their pride and voting for Hillary.

Florida and North Carolina voted early so far. As of last Friday 1.6 million voted early in FL and about 700K voted early for dems. And out of those 700K who voted early, 2-1 voted Hillary over Bernie

Trump is not a bad debater at all. Say what you will about him, but he's remarkably calm.

People forget that the GE debates are not like the primary debates. There won't be crowds like the kind Trump has that bow to his whim. Honestly, if I were him, I'd come up with a reason to boycott them since he's basically done every single thing possible at this point.

Honestly, the liberal media has created Trump. If they could go back in time, I feel like they'd pay him dust.
