I maintain that middle aged+ white people are the biggest voting demo in terms of actual turnout though.
They aren't though, people over 60 are.

I think Trump would have been wise to completely avoid California.

Demonstrators storm California GOP convention to protest Trump - CNNPolitics.com

And of course he responded in his usual manner.

Quote:
"That was not the easiest entrance I've ever made," Trump said once he began speaking at the convention, adding, "it felt like I was crossing the border."

Are you seriously trying to debate that older conservative voters have the highest voter turnout in the US? Come on man, stats don't budge just because you don't like them.

I dunno, the busted up cop cars and such are probably going to help motivate his supporters. The dumbass segment of the left wing is out in full force against their right wing brothers and sisters.

He's the one that started talking about punching protesters in the face. And his supporters are the ones that are accosting protesters as they are led out of his events. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

His supporters are at heart pussies. Let's see the angry white republican (sans their NRA supported gun) take on an angry Mexican. They'd **** their pants and run home.

In my own experience those people love pumping out their chests but when confronted one on one, wilt like spinach.

There use to be a video on Youtube (must have been taken down) of Ted Nugent talking **** at a book signing event until some veteran dude got in his face and challenged his perspective. Ted backed down like a scared first grader about to get pummeled until security stepped in.

Chula, let's not overgeneralize people like you assume that those who disagree with you do. You don't think that there's any diversity among his supporters? I hate Trump but **** being that blinded by my own political opinion.

I'd have to agree. Chula, your rhetoric is often very polarizing.

Apologize peeps. Gotta learn when it's time to step away from the PC.

Just remember that you were raised by those same people who you call Wonder Bread white people. I was raised by those same people whose political beliefs make me recoil, and while I fully realize how much I disagree with them, I still have to watch myself to make sure I'm not falling into the same mental traps that they do. And these are smart people, probably far smarter than me, so it's not like I'm lording over the mentally deficient. I'm trying to separate what may very well seem like knowledge from what I want to seem like knowledge, if only because it's easier than developing my own opinions.

Always question your assumptions.
