    No offense, and I don't really want to compare Trump's embrace of racism today to the late 1960s, but Goldwater and the emerging counterview to the GOP establishment, from where Nixon came from, sort of anticipated a backlash to civil rights setting aside majority black districts and limiting state power to draw voting districts.

    Money and promoting a book.

    But I can't believe that she released a tape that squarely puts her in potential legal trouble.
    The corrupt are still living under the allusion that no consequences will befall upon them.

    Hillary Clinton started the birther issue.

    You didn't think you could deflect from the Demos racism/identity politics did you? That which they doubled down on and didn't learn anything from the last election. Despite their cheating ways.

    Your first problem is that you seem to actually believe Trump has embraced racism. YOur second is that you thing Gold water who was instrumental in the civil rights movement in Arizona, was a backlash against the GOP establisment or that said establishment was embracing racism.

    Yet, Trump's average of polls puts him at the same approval rate he had when he was elected - so for every black American voter who has switched to him, he's lost some other voter ... Whatever.

    Oh Trumps all in for racism. LOL Goldwater didn't have much to do with civil rights, as I recall, other than opposing the govt forcing individuals to contract with those they didn't want to contract with, and abrogating federalism in voting beyond the 14th amendments prohibition on denying anyone a right because of race.

    Of course she did. It's a leftwing conspiracy, just like Russiagate.

    This is why I think she works for the government or the DNC. They promised her immunity or a Clinton pass.

    That is only valid if you embrace the polling as reported by the media as reflecting the whole country, including flyover country.

    I personally participate in conducting internal polling within two states.

    In one of those two states, Trump has increased his support the most among Hispanic voters. (55% support in total) A swing state by-the-way.
    In the other, the Black support has increased the most. (57% support in total)

    Just like Stormy, being used with promises of support.

    In any event, she has a Random House contract, who in turn is owned by CBS.

    Remember the woman who was offered 500K to make a claim against Trump right before the 2016 election?
    A quiet donor eventually offered he over two million and a clear payoff of her mortgage.

    No shortage of, "rage," funding behind the scenes.

    I've made mention of that fact in prior posts...

    If you don't believe that Trump currently has a 450,000 voter lead in Florida, so be it. Yep, that is the state where Trump has significantly increased his Hispanic support.

    He is polling higher in states than National Average polls. Oh and with Latinos Blacks and Asians up double digits from what he had voting for him. Puts that into perspective. Then there are the Blue Dog Demos who haven't bailed on him. While the Demos deal with # Walkaway.


    Trump has more converts than defectors.....

    Pollsters have a variety of tools at their disposal to understand how voters feel about political leaders. The gold standard for elected officials is usually job approval, where people give an up or down vote on how they think someone has done in office. People can be asked what attributes they think leaders have, ask if they trust them to handle various issues, or very broadly can be asked if they are favorable or unfavorable, a metric known in the business as the “fav-unfav.”

    But there’s another metric used by researchers that can help understand at an emotional level how people respond to a person or group: a feelings thermometer. In situations where someone might feel that saying they feel “unfavorable” to someone is too strong (for instance, asking people about views on sensitive topics like race or religion), a feelings thermometer lets people express wariness toward a subject without making them come out as plainly negative.

    Pew Research Center, over the course of the last few years, has been asking voters if they feel “warm” or “cool” toward Donald Trump, then tracking whether the temperature has gone up or down since. And the results underscore just how firmly President Trump has held onto his base.

    Pew’s new work puts data behind these anecdotes. In their survey, they have panelists who they verified did in fact vote in the 2016 election and, contemporaneously, said they voted for Trump. Pew was able to take this group and look at how they had responded over time. In April of 2016, in the heat of the GOP primary fight, Trump was viewed “very warmly” by only about 43 percent of those who would go on to vote for him. Fully one-third of his eventual voters felt neutral to cool toward him at that point.

    But since that time, Trump’s voters have not grown weary of him, dismayed by a presidency they aren’t sure they signed up for. To the contrary, comparing those April 2016 figures to the ratings given to him by his voters in March 2018 shows that he has won a fair share of “converts”, those who moved from a neutral or cool position during the primary and who now feel warmly toward their commander in chief. While there are still skeptics — the 12 percent of his voters who didn’t like him then, don’t like him now, and who Republicans ought to be quite worried about in the midterm elections — the number of Trump voters who have cooled on him is small, only 6 percent in Pew’s analysis.....snip~

    That's total nonsense, Carter, Clinton, and Obama all won southern states, there never was a significant shift. Just another lie to help Democrats try to distance themselves from their Klan past and pretend they aren't a bunch of racists. Now they are just as openly racist, but against whites...

    Read again Goldwater voted for all of them save one was on the NAACP board in Arizona and a member of the congress for racial equality as well.
