Buzzfeed: If Hillary Clinton manages to beat Bernie Sanders, the early primaries have already revealed that there’s only one strategy for the general election against a Republican, be it Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, or Ted Cruz: Scorch the earth.There was a scenario, which looks more like a fantasy, in which Clinton was a movement. Women in their twenties, thirties, and forties would rally to her the way black Americans rallied to Obama; she would run on her own mantle of change.In reality, nobody is that excited about Hillary Clinton, and young voters, women and men — the foot soldiers of any Democratic Party movement — aren’t coming around. She lost a resounding 82% of voters under 30 in Nevada. Her campaign now rests on the hope that voters of color like her well enough, if nowhere near as much as they like Obama. And that means that when she faces a Republican, she will have to destroy him — something the people who will be doing the destroying acknowledged when I asked them earlier this month.
The polls have Hillary and Donald neck and neck. The economy in the doldrums, if not outright recession. Trump will storm through, not Hillary. Obama missed the sea change, he still lives in the Doonsebury version of political correctness. The antiestablishment hatred is strong, The millennials know they have to choose the method of their recession in 2024. They also have to watch the monetary regime change carefully, keep the Swampers from sending out the drunken helicopter pilot. Voters will choose the blunt, candid candidate, Trump.
