Many people are assuming that there is absolutely no way Donald Trump will win the 2016 presidential election. I believe Donald Trump has the best chance of taking control of this great country. Many people believe that Trump will not win because of the results of all of the different polls put out by a high volume of media sources. According to RealClearPolitics.com’s polling data, which takes an average of all major news outlets’ polling data and averages them, it shows Hillary with a comfortable lead over Trump.
I discourage you from relying on this information for two reasons: one, being there is a stigma surrounding Trump supporters which describes them as bigoted, racist, sexist, and xenophobic. Many supporters, or would-be supporters, want to avoid being associated with these terms, and may not vote due to that fear alone. This provides discrepancies within the polls due to unreliable data.
The second reason not to take the polls as ultimate undeniable truth is due to the multiple reports and private emails explicitly that the pro-liberal media, in efforts with the Clinton campaign, has been oversampling likely Democratic voters to increase the percentage of votes counting for Clinton.
A huge factor that led me to believe that Trump has the best chance to win the election was what renowned American University history professor Allan Lichtman has predicted. Lichtman, who has correctly predicted the next president in EVERY election since 1984, believes Trump will be victorious. Hearing this from an academic who has never been wrong, who even picked George H. W. Bush when he was down 15 points, makes this sound extremely promising for Trump.
An additional reason Trump has an unbelievable chance at winning this can be seen by looking at how much passion supporters show about voting for “their” candidate. Do you see people of the masses that are truly passionate and excited about voting for Hillary Clinton? I say no.
Bernie Sanders supporters showed passion and excitement, but for Hillary, it seems her voters aren’t very enthusiastic. Her record so far more than likely will result in a huge loss of would-be voters. On the other hand, Trump has people going nuts for him. It reminds me of the excitement Obama supporters expressed in 2008. This excitement was seen in his gigantic rallies across America with people chanting, “Yes we Can!” And “Change!” This time, it is Trump supporters echoing his “Make America Great Again!” and “Build the Wall!”
Finally, Trump has been strategically speaking to the most likely voters, the people who are, what I like to call, “the hurting class.” He has promised to help the people, formerly known as the middle class who have been negatively affected by the declining available factory jobs in the U.S. The “hurting class” sees who hates Trump: The elitists, the small group that controls a huge concentration of power. Corporate America hates Trump. Wall Street hates Trump. The career politicians definitely hate Trump. All of the powerful groups of people, those who have put the “hurting class” of America in the situation they are in now, hate Trump.
So what will the “hurting class” do come on Election Day? They have the ability to invoke the biggest upheavals of American politics of all time by putting Donald Trump in the White House.
