Donald Trump LOST To Hillary Clinton And Bernie Sanders In New Hampshire

The typhoon known as Donald Trump continues to be exaggerated by a media infatuated with a celebrity candidate whose psychotic fits are utterly unpredictable. He is covered obsessively by the press mainly because they are hoping to catch him in a juicy controversy or a slap-fight with an elderly widow.

To a certain extent the press has gotten exactly what they want. Trump’s behavioral meltdowns have already yielded tabloid gold. He has fought with Fox News, directed his supporters to “knock the crap out of” protesters, and called Ted Cruz a “pussy.” And for his reward the press provides him with uninterrupted attention that magnifies his wholly manufactured TV fiction persona.

Take the just concluded New Hampshire primary. Trump was declared the runaway winner in a rout that devastated his opponents. The shock registered by the media over his dominating electoral prowess went completely off the scale. It’s a typical exhibition of laziness by reporters who are incapable of putting information into context. So let me do it for them.

Trump-Clinton

Donald Trump received 35% of the Republican vote. That is indeed a significantly larger percentage than John Kasich, whose 14% earned him second place. However, it less than the 38% that Hillary Clinton got in her losing bid against Bernie Sanders (who drew a truly extraordinary 60%). This means that Clinton in defeat has greater support among Democrats than a victorious Trump does among Republicans.

What’s more, New Hampshire voters turned out in record numbers for this primary. As a result, Trump conned about 100,000 dimwitted voters to cast their lots with an overt racist and wannabe dictator. The Sanders total, however, bested that by 50%, with a 151,000 votes. Even Clinton’s losing effort came very close to Trump with 95,000 votes. And yet Trump is considered the phenomenon.

Everybody needs to take a breath, sit back, and reexamine what is taking place. Donald Trump is a blowhard who knows how to work the media refs to build himself up. He is only leading from within his own fractured party of crackpots in a large field of candidates that dilutes the anti-Trump vote. A more realistic assessment of Trump’s campaign will be possible when the contestants are whittled down to two or three (as they are for the Democrats). Until then, we can expect the media to wear their phony astonishment at Trump’s alleged success despite all the evidence that he’s a paper tiger pitching a reality TV character minus the reality.

  1. Well put….! All Hail to Caesar. . .cloak and dagger, Stage Right. The rest of the GOP will take care of him. . .beware the Ides of March.

  2. Donald Trump is a draft dodging, daddy rich asshole who will never hold public office.

  3. Wow. If a right-winger cherry-picked the data like you did, we’d be mocking that site for all of its failure sauce.

    The fact that Repub Donald Trump in 1st place got more votes than Dem Hillary Clinton got in second place, when there were really only 2 Dem candidates versus what – 9? – Republican candidates, is a big pile of So What?

    Bottom line, more Republicans showed up to vote in the primary than Democrats. And barring relocation, hospitalization or death, ALL of those Republicans will show up at the general and they will ALL vote Republican, lock-step. Sure, those Dems who came to the primary will rally around their eventual nominee, too, but that means Dem efforts in NH are already facing a 35K-ish deficit. It’s not insurmountable by far. But it’s not nothing either, so stop with the whoo-hoo-ing, it’s embarrassing and proves you either don’t know what you’re talking about, or you DO know what you’re trying to hide.

    • As usual, a right-winger has completely missed the point of this article. It is not about winning or losing elections. It is about how the media covers electoral results. And the unambiguous facts show that the press elevates trivialities that are not particularly useful to understand what’s going on.

      And as for your election analysis, that’s wrong too. If you think the turnout stats are going to be remotely similar in November’s general election to what they were in the primary, you have a lot to learn. And Obama crushed Romney in 2012 (52% to 46%).

      • Repukes hate reality. Their dreams of a fascist, racist country cloud their weak intellects with mush.

    • I was hoping somebody else caught on to this libtard, common corish type of math… To claim that Hillary out performed Trump is hysterical. She was in a competition of 2, versus Trump in a competition vs 9… he came in first,she came in LAST!
      Trump got more than 20,000 votes than Hillary also.. this entire article is ridiculous, retarded, left wing propaganda. No wonder people call them libtards.
      Lmao @ YOU!

      • I always know I’m dealing with a right-wing idiot when they start off by using “libtard.” Clearly you are incapable of grasping the point here.

        And to top it off, you think that the difference between 101,000 votes and 95,000 is 20,000. LMAO indeed.

  4. When the repubs finally get down to 2 or three nodding heads — take all the votes that Trump did not get in the primary in NH — do you think that a majority of them will be backing Trump — I doubt it — they will be voting for Jeb or Rubio , I doubt Cruz will still be around — and my view is that Trump gets to enjoy being in second place. There is 65% that did not vote for Trump — so give him 10% of them and 55% vote his rear end back to celebrity apprentice.

    Did you get to check out the legs on the female nodding head sitting at the far left on “Outnumbered” at noon today? Excellent!!!

    Thank you for ‘telling’ the Repuke what he needs to ‘hear’. These people are so frightening…damn ignorance.

    Go, Bernie! I love the new comedy act going around the country….Bernie impersonator and Trump inpersonator…

    It probably will come down to the two of them.

  6. Checking out a female’s legs….so gauche.

    Sorry….not a good-looking guy in sight. Too bad for me.
    By the way…I love the male chest…with or without hair…..damn fine sight.

    • Excellent is the word, Gloria…….EXCELLENT
