Trump could not win a general, against either Dem candidate.

Trump would win by many people just not voting, the Clintons are not liked by many people because of them being disengenuous,Bill lied his ass off to get elected.

I think that it would be close but Hilary might win.

I agree many people will stay home. Clinton will not excite the voters enough to vote! The voters are discouraged by the political hypocrisy of the wealthy and not being represented and cared for by the political system. Clinton's are part of mediocrity of business as usual.

Ok, easy one's first. Clinton will get a lot, but not all, Dem support. Trump will get a lot, but not all, Rep support. So let's look at Independents:

Let's divide them into three catagories: Libertarian, Centrist, and Green/Socialist.

Libertarians will, without Bernie in the race overwhelmingly vote Trump.

Centrists will tend to vote in larger numbers for Trump, mostly because a lot of them just hate Clinton and because if you run a Republican against a Republican-lite candidate, the Republican wins. Interesting to note that Bernie would probably pick up most of this group simply because he's not as nuckin' futz as Trump!

Greens/Socialist will most likely write-in Sanders, vote for Jill Stein, or not vote. Of course, they would vote for Sanders in overwhelming numbers.

So, if you can't get people to realize just how unelectable Clinton is, say "Heil" to Commandant Trump!

Thom's Blog Is On the Move

Hello All

Thom's blog in this space and moving to a new home.

Please follow us across to hartmannreport.com - this will be the only place going forward to read Thom's blog posts and articles.

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Thom Hartmann is a literary descendent of Ben Franklin and Tom Paine. His unflinching observations and deep passion inspire us to explore contemporary culture, politics, and economics; challenge us to face the facts of the societies we are creating; and empower us to demand a better world for our children and grandchildren."
John Perkins, author of the New York Times bestselling book Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
From Cracking the Code:
"Thom Hartmann ought to be bronzed. His new book sets off from the same high plane as the last and offers explicit tools and how-to advice that will allow you to see, hear, and feel propaganda when it's directed at you and use the same techniques to refute it. His book would make a deaf-mute a better communicator. I want him on my reading table every day, and if you try one of his books, so will you."
Peter Coyote, actor and author of Sleeping Where I Fall
From Screwed:
"I think many of us recognize that for all but the wealthiest, life in America is getting increasingly hard. Screwed explores why, showing how this is no accidental process, but rather the product of conscious political choices, choices we can change with enough courage and commitment. Like all of Thom’s great work, it helps show us the way forward."
Paul Loeb, author of Soul of a Citizen and The Impossible Will Take a Little While
