Mark Halperin is an idiot

No way trump wins California

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/mark-halperin-morning-joe-trump-california

"While “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough insisted the state has been a “virtual wasteland” for Republicans for the last two decades, Halperin said Trump would likely put new states in play come November.

Based on his current poll numbers, Halperin predicted the frontrunner would lose the Hispanic vote if the general election were held today, but that he’s not sure that will be the case long term.

According to the Field Poll of California, Clinton holds in 28 point lead in the state in a possible general election race against Trump."

There are pockets of Republican leaning voters, but the Democrats hold a solid majority. Given all the groups he's bashed, Trump doesn't stand a chance of getting more votes than Hillary, or even Bernie, and maybe not even more than whoever is running in the United States Pirate Party... arrgh!

like the Obama that only Republicans see

I think I'm right on this point: Halperin is the guy they put on TV to make Chuck Todd look smart
