By the way, didn't want his kids to be around Jews because they ''raise their kids to be whiny brats''?

Kind of thought WASP's had that title locked down.
Two separate issues - the school produces whiny brats of all backgrounds AND has a Jews.

 
Ann has wide appeal with men/women , races , creeds etc
I agree. So far. But since neither she, nor Donald, nor any of us have any idea what verbal/moral/absurd/ dance she will be required to perform at any given moment, I don't see it lasting.

Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest—and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure. It’s not your fault.

My guess that this is not one of Trumps favorite verses-


Matthew 23:12


12 And whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.

 
I'm just curious about something and I would take a stat from either side - is there any polling on how Trump is doing with lower vs middle vs upper class voters, regardless of how those are defined?

He's going in the wrong direction.

He's just going to be grunting and pointing at things by November.

 
Donald Trump has a massive Catholic problem


https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/08/28/donald-trump-has-a-massive-catholic-problem/

"But Trump trails among Catholics by a huge margin. A new poll from the Public Religion Research Institute released this week shows him down 23 points, 55-32.

A Washington Post-ABC News poll released earlier this month painted an even worse picture for Trump’s Catholic support. He was down by 27 points, 61-34.

If you compare the difference between Romney’s margin among Catholics in 2012 and Trump’s margin among Catholics this year, the 25-point difference is tied for the biggest shift of any demographic group in the Post-ABC poll.

(The only group that matches that 25-point shift is white, college-educated women. Romney won them by 6 points; Trump trails by 19.)

Trump’s deficits among non-whites and young voters, by contrast, are similar to where Romney and Republicans have been in recent years. The Post-ABC poll, in fact, showed Hillary Clinton failing to match Obama’s margin among non-whites — though not in a statistically meaningful way — while her margin among young voters ages 18-to-29 was three points better.

These are groups, in other words, that Republicans don’t expect to do well with. And they still don’t.

But Catholics have long been a swing vote in presidential elections, and right now they’re swinging hard for Clinton.

It’s also hard to overstate just how significant Trump’s poor performance among Catholics is. That’s because they comprise about one-quarter of voters in the United States (25 percent in 2012 exit polls) and are about as big a voting bloc as non-whites (28 percent) and independents (29 percent).

While we often look at how Trump is doing worse than Romney among Hispanics, we’re really talking about the difference between Trump taking 45 percent of the vote and 46 percent — or maybe 49.5 percent or 50.5 percent. That’s because Hispanics are only about 10 percent of the electorate, and the GOP’s share of that vote is likely to be between 20 and 35 percent or so.

When talking about Catholics, though, Trump is basically adding 5 to 7 percentage points to Clinton’s overall margin. If 25 percent of the electorate is Catholic, Clinton is currently taking 14 to 15 points worth of that chunk, while Trump is taking 8 or 8.5 points. And this is a group, again, that is usually close to tied."

 
I don't understand why the catholics don't like him.  I mean,  I DO,  he's an #######,  but what reasons specifically related to catholics? Is it the whole insulting the pope thing?

I don't know the answer but I suspect it is not so much that Catholics don't like him as it is Hispanics don't like him and a large percentage of Hispanics are Catholics.

I can also tell you that Irish Catholics love Bill Clinton so that may contribute to it as well.

The article noted Hispanics are 10% of the electorate, and Catholics represent 25%, so clearly it is broader than a Hispanic issue. It offers another possible explanation at the end of what I excerpted.

The multiple divorces thing probably doesn't go over so well either. That seems like a bigger deal to catholics than most other branches of christianity.
