    Percentage-wise:

    More Hispanics vote for Trump than Romney.
    Less Hispanics vote for Hillary than Obama

    Trump received more Black votes than Romney or McCain.

    More women voted for Obama than Hillary.
    Trump got slightly less than previous Republicans, but not much in it over the years.

    Hillary also lost more "Other" votes than previous Democratic candidates.

    I think this is, again, a pointer to the failure of the Democratic pick, rather than how successful Trump was.

    Yep, Hillary lost the election more than Trump won it.

    Trump did no better, and sometimes worse than other "normal" Republican candidates, and that includes with white voters. He's easily beatable, and hopefully the Democrats learn their lesson by 2020, and nominate a better candidate to kick Trump out of the white house.

    And if the economy turns around and people's lives start looking better, It won't matter who you pick. Envy and bull(*)(*)(*)(*) solutions to problems that don't exist only sell when people are desperate.

    Giving that Trump's policies mirror the last idiot GOP voters put in office, I'm betting the economy won't be doing so hot (hope I'm wrong though). Kind of funny how Trump has basically become a Bush clone in that regard considering how much he criticized Bush when he was in office.

    Dead wrong of course Bush routinely added to government bureaucracy, and barely gave mention to our job destroying corporate tax rates.
