These people are not racists, they are not ignorant uneducated people, etc but they are fed up with the both parties and how they say one thing to get elected but then do something else when they are in office.

Trump speaks to their aspirations, fears and hopes. These are people who are opposed to illegal immigration, granting amnesty to illegals, they despise political correctness, they think everything is out of control when it comes to dealing with Islamic inspired terrorism - even if it is a perversion.

If he ends up the nominee, it will not surprise me if many of these people vote for him.

I think this is pretty accurate. Poll numbers will not be accurate because a lot of people don't want to admit that they actually support the man.

Interesting. I do not know any democrat who does not despise him. Or any democrat who "despises" political correctness as defined by Trump

Why wouldn't they admit in polls?

I'm betting a lot of San Bernadino residents think otherwise. I'm sure there are a few that are all about the 'this won't change me' bluster, but many more have just seen the truth.

See DCUM. Then ask that question again.

My MIL, a democrat who is very educated, supports him. She is frustrated with the effects of illegal immigration and also believes he will be able to get things done.

See I think no one can "get things done" with the Congress we currently have. But we shall see.

A lot of Americans are frustrated with illegal immigration (not immigration-just illegal immigration) and feel as if their concerns have been ignored. Trumps stance (however,ahem, inartfully put) is resonating with people across all classes, races and political persuasions. It speaks to the frustration of the American people with their leaders.

That poor woman.

If she is a mail order bride, she is probably lucky to be out of her terrible country and living in America. It was her choice.

How many blue collar democrats do you know in the rust belt? I would bet your ilk of democrats are not that type.

This is completely off topic but that is incorrect. A lot of women in mail order bride situations are essentially in human traffiking situations where they are being sold for profit.

Depends upon where they are coming from...I know what I am talking about as my fil married a "mail order bride" and we had to sign financial support documents before she could immigrate. We checked out the entire process for each country he was looking into.

And, both the Democrats and Republicans have underestimated how big of an issue this is and to how many people across racial, social, and economic classes.
