I would flip this the other way and say over 90 percent of African-Americans voted against Donald Trump.
It was mainstream Americans that signed up and voted for Donald Trump. Mainstream Americans all over the country. There aren't enough of these ragtag wackos to elect anybody president. The Alt-Right, nobody ever heard of, by the way, until Trump came along.
Against these two [Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton] I would [vote], but I never voted for [Barack Obama]. I always voted third party - the ones who say their gonna jail the bankers.

Back when Donald Trump was just starting in the primaries, and I was asked, 'What do you think of Trump?'

But when the primaries are over, Donald Trump will be gone.'

Donald Trump, I guess one idea here if he`s flip flopping, has he bought himself cover with his base by all the inflammatory thing he`s said over the last year?

If Trump actually gets his act together in a disciplined way, he could win by as much as 66 percent.
