Your fooling yourself and yourself only, if you think this (and most other) elections are not emotion driven, in large part. Better get a new abacus.This is the problem with the "A" typical trump supporter.
Being devoid of common sense and practical math. While you linger on and on about "emotions", you forget something more important about the election process that "trumps" political positions and bluster.
This election is going to come down to basic math.
Math that just isnt in Trumps favor. Yes, he can inflame every WHITE right wing nutball in this country, just like Romney did, and he will still get smoked in the general election. The only problem for Trump, is that he is plissing off the GOP base, and remember, that he was only winning less than 37% of the vote before the others quit, which means that 63% of the republican base were voting against him.
With prominent republicans coming out and saying they will simply NOT vote for Trump or Hillary, that takes away votes Donald cant afford to lose.
With each person coming out against him within the party, the GOP is signaling that they are willing to lose this election to Hillary just to stop Trump, who doesnt represent the republican party at all.
Trumps negative ratings are at all time highs for a candidate of the GOP. NOBODY is disliked more than Trump.
The key to this race, like all the others, is demographics.
Trump cannot win the majority of the black vote.
Trump cannot win the majority of the hispanic vote.
Trump cannot win the majority of the Asian vote.
Trump cannot win the majority of the single women vote.
Trump cannot win the majority of the middle eastern muslim vote.
Without these demographics in his column, he is a dead man walking.
Once Hillary and Bernie team up and unify the party, Trump will be doomed. His VP pick will also come into play.
"WE" progressive liberals got EXACTLY who we wanted to run against, and now all we need is for Trump to pick Sarah Palin and you might as well stay home in November.
It doesnt matter what bluster is said, or how Trump got to the nomination.
As for your confidence that Trump is the man, look at yesterdays primaries which were held a WEEK after Cruz and Kasich dropped out of the race.
A total of 180,231 republican votes were cast and YET, 58,944 still voted AGAINST TRUMP in the state. ALMOST 50% voted against him.
This hardly represents a plurality of the republican base. Those 59k have a reason NOT to vote for Trump, and in november, they STILL may not vote for TRUMP.
WHY, if Trump was technically the only one on the ballot, would 59K vote against him if he was so popular?
Why not forget about the fox news hype or donalds own hype. The numbers tell the whole story bro.
The only people excited about Trump are the "A" typical white fringe of this country. Sorry, but facts are facts.
If it wasnt, you would see plenty of people of color at his rallies and we all can see 20/20 as his crowds continue to be rednecked lily white backwoods drones dumb enough to fall for his B.S.
The democrats would be crapping their pants right now, if Trump crowds were filled with hispanics, blacks, asians and other people of color. But there isnt, so there is no need to panic.
Hillary is going to trounce Trump and you and the others going to the edge to support him are only setting yourself up for a major disappointment.
The RCP is the most accurate source of polling data in the country. They have NEVER missed a prediction for the white house since it began.
Other than rassmussen, who we have already discounted before as a fox news unreliable source for polling.. here are the latest numbers for the week.
Keep in mind, both McCain and Romney were alot closer to OBAMA at this same time in their election cycles. Look how far behind trump has been week after week.

Good luck with your delusions.
TOS.
Of course the election comes down to basic math. DUH!! LOL! But the numbers are in large part, emotion driven.
I'm hoping very much Trump doesn't go the way of Romney. NEWS FLASH! Romney lost! And if you think it's only whites voting for Trump, then that would explain why your not making a lot of sense to this point.
How many of those prominent republicans that you claim will not endorse Trump, mattered enough to stop Trump from getting the majority of electoral votes? Answer; ZERO !!
How many of those "prominent" (as you call them) republicans have been able to stop Trump's Roll to presumptive nominee? Answer? ZERO!! NADA!
As for people coming out against him? He's still in the lead. Everybody hating, nobady wants him, the party hates him - but he's still in front! How can that be? Better get that abacus out again!
I suspect the part you don't get, is the republican party didn't represent the majority of the republican part. Better do a little more reading, while your doing all that math over again.
Trump's negative ratings with the GOP are at an all time high? Gee, and Jeb Bush's ratings with the GOP were at an all time high, in the beginning. Do you see the problem other side? Are you not listening (refer to above pic)? You may have to attend summer school.
Trump may not win the majority of the Black vote. Hilary can't possibly win the majority of the intelligent vote.
Not so sure about the hispanic vote. There is a possibility Hispanics will eventually realize, the jobs illegals are taking, ARE THEIR JOBS!!! That one may surprise you.
The single women vote? Yes, valid point. what about the inteligent working woman? Again, up in the air, except when doing the math on your broken calculator.
Middle eastern? Maybe
Trump is just as much a dead man walking, as Hilary is liable to be up for impeachment, for her lying and dishonesty.
Hilary is going to lose many of Bernie's votes to Trump. Why do you think Bernie's voters are not with Hilary now? If Hilary takes Bernie as VP, that could change. I don't see that.
No doubt you guys got who you wanted. Unfortunately, your not everybody.
IF TRUMP WERE TO PICK PALIN, as you hypothetically state, then that would undoubtedly draw some of those unintelligent women backing Hilary I was talking about earlier. Bad for Hilary! Let's face it, Hilary depends on the dim bulbs in crowd. Without them, she wouldn't be where she is today!!
The rest is just repeating what you've already stated.
I just have one question for you Mr. Mathematician.
What color is the sky in your world?? LOL!!
