Trump vs Obama 2012

[Catatonic]

Hypothetical scenario:

The year is 2012. Barack Obama is our sitting President. Donald Trump is the Republican nominee.

Who wins and why?

Since we are being hypothetical ...

The year is 2016. Barack Obama is our sitting President. Donald Trump is the Republican nominee.

Who wins and why?

I personally think Obama would have won in 2012 and 2016.

The American voters are just plain stupid.

HAHAH...

you backwoods thinkers crack me up. DRUMPF has hired NOBODY in the middle class arena. He hires GUEST WORKERS for cheap labor rates, and YOU think he will create jobs for the typical american worker..

Please... are you really this dense?

TOS.

It's so nice to not have to read his racially based hatred and nonsense coming through the Moderation queue.

Trump still wins.

Obama never connected with "Joe Lunchbox".

Trump still wins.

Obama never connected with "Joe Lunchbox".

or "Joe Sixpack".

Think about Detroit, Philadelphia, Milwaukee where Hillary was down over 6 million votes from Obama.
Those voters are still there but didn't care enough for Hillary, compared to Obama.

hard to say , Obama may have turned out the minority voters. he would not have gotten the same white vote.

many Michigan voters were disappointed in Obama for drinking the water in flint and acting as if everything was ok.

No, Joe Sixpack would remember Joe the Plumber and stay far away from him.

BHO may have won more voters in the big cities than HRC , but it was the small counties where Trump's power was seen.

 

[Non sequitur]

Because America is/is not racist Obama would win. The inner city's would go 99% Obama just like trailer parks went 99% Bush during his reign. If people voted based upon serious criteria Trump would win by a landslide. That's why Hillary lost. She had same platform as Obama without his popularity.

...but he can't beat Hillary?
