Personally, i think Trump would wallop Hillary. Trump pulls in a greater cross section of voters. He pulls in a lot of Democrats. And, i think it is obvious that everyone, including the Establishment is fearful that Trump CAN beat Hillary. That is why literally everyone is on the attack. You would think the media would be scorching Cruz for his evangelical conservative creds but they aren't. I think they believe Hillary will beat him but she cant' beat Trump. Just my opinion and assessment.
Well, we dont' know who can win unless they run. That is why people who run around and say 'Oh so and so is not ELECTABLE, blah, blah". We dont know who is or isn't electable until they actually run. So, if someone wants to run, then run.
Hillary is actually responsible for deaths, while Trump is not. Sooooooo, comparing Trump to a mass murderer instead of Hillary is a bit wonky.
He's not in power yet.

Ahhh, so it would be better to put a callous bitch who has proven she cares nothing about national security or lives of Americans over a guy you hate and compare to Hitler based on nothing?

She's not a low information voter, she has the information. She's a "I don't care about anything I don't agree with or understand or that doesn't directly affect ME" voter.

A low information voter is someone who pays attention to snippets and yellow journalism headlines only and make up their minds based on those media manipulated "facts". An non low information voter is one who listens FULLY to both sides and vote for a greater cause.

However, Trump has a better chance. The fact is, as much as the "conservative base" of the Republican party b!tches and moans about Trump--are they truly going to vote for Hilary? No. At the end of the day, while a few may stay home, vote Libertarian, or whatever--the fact is that most of them will end up voting for Trump if he is at the top of the ticket.
Cruz would obviously get those votes, but he won't get some of the Trump voters, especially in swing states such as Florida, Ohio, potentially Pennsylvania, etc...
So, while I think that either candidacy could be a disaster for the Republicans--I do think Trump has a better shot in November, especially if the Republican base would quit their whining and belly-aching and wrap their pea brains around the fact that he is going to be the nominee.

Hillary would be a far bigger disaster. I can't imagine the mailaise and depression that will set into this country if she wins. It's bad now. The economy is terrible. People are losing their jobs while Dum Dum tangos.
There are three qualities to Trump’s presidential campaign that invoke parallels to Nazism. The first is his intense cult of personality, which, for Trump supporters, is particularly driven by his reputation as a successful businessman who can “fix things,” and by his willingness to brazenly defy the taboos of political correctness. In addition, there is his blatant racist demagoguery, from his spurious and offensive claims that undocumented Mexican immigrants are largely criminals and rapists to his recent proposal that Muslims carry ID cards identifying their religion. Finally, there are the undertones of violence, both inspired by his rhetoric (e.g. the two Bostonians who savagely assaulted a homeless man while invoking Trump’s name) and directly advocated by Trump himself (e.g. his open agreement with supporters who beat up a #BlackLivesMatter protester).

Pure ignorance. People who make such claims have ZERO knowledge of the conditions in Weimar Germany.
People who pass it on don't, either.
As to the points above--how in the heck do you think Bill Clinton was so popular? It was that VERY SAME cult of personality. People continued to believe in him long after many of the scandals of his presidency came out--yet no one compared him to Hitler.
As to the "taboos" of political correctness--that is a GOOD thing. People are tired of the perpetually offended knotheads.
As to the third--that is made up media tripe. They disagree with building a wall--so they call it "racist". Like the students at Emory university, they are afraid and blame Trump even when he has NOTHING to do with the immediate situation.

You should still be asking who can beat Bernie. He is still in it.
So is Kasich--but that doesn't mean he will be the nominee.
Kasich has what, 20 delegates?
Bernie has over 900.
Comparing the two is just stupid.
BS. Neither one has a chance to win. It's pretty much the same. Delegate count is irrelevant if you don't have enough. Whether you are one, or 1,000 short.

So? Nearly half the delegates are still on the table, and the super delegates can switch sides to align with the popular vote. Bernie does, in fact, still have a sid chance.
I agree with Dona, that Bernie has a better chance than Kasich. And if the damn attorney general would get off his ass and indict Hillary as he should - that would give Bernie quite the edge.

Oh, that isn't going to happen and you know it!
One can dream.

No, he doesn't. The super delegates have been in Hilary's pocket from the outset.
