You can't tell much from a few screened calls on propaganda radio. Look at the polls.

California might be considered a liberal state..... But out here in the valley, people are very conservative/ republican.

75% of the Republicans will not vote for Trump if he be the nominee?

Given that Republicans tend to turn out in force, and often because of wedge issues like abortion or immigration, I think it's foolish to assume they won't vote for Trump. They'll turn out and they'll vote for whoever the nominee happens to be, even if they have to "hold their nose" to do it.

If only 75% of the voters who turned out for Romney turn out and vote for Trump, he's electoral roadkill.

Now what will be the actual number? Too soon to say. But here is some data to ponder. Note the high negatives among the independents.

But note the favorable to unfavorable ratio among Republicans.

69-29.

They like him.

House Speaker Paul Ryan condemned Donald Trump’s plan to ban Muslim immigration to the U.S. by saying, “this is not who we are as a party or a country.” Ryan is mistaken: Trump represents exactly what the GOP is
