Michael Walsh explains exactly how Trump in going to crush Hillary in the general election come November. Do you think this makes sense? Or do you think Trump doesn’t stand a chance against Hillary? Check this out and leave your comments below!
Absent an alien invasion, the zombie apocalypse or the sudden re-annexation of California by Mexico, Donald Trump will be the Republican candidate for president. It’s time to move on to the real question: Can he beat Hillary Clinton?
