Van Jones is as hardcore left as you can get, and he's black. He's predicting a Trump win:
14 minute video on VJ's Facebook page reminding his fellow Democrats that Republicans told themselves over and over again that Trump had no chance at the nomination and now democrats are doing the same thing. He's worried.
Some takeaways:
*Democrat base demoralized.
*Republicans underestimated his appeal.
*Trump's "mistakes" weren't mistakes at all.
*Trump makes great use of social media.
But the money quote is this:

But the money quote is this:
"70 percent of African Americans have a horrible view of Donald Trump. In order for the Democrats to win the White House they don’t have to get 50 percent of the black vote or 60, or 70, or 80, or 90. Democrats, in order to win, historically need 90 to 92 percent of the black vote. If only 70 percent don't like Donald Trump, that means 30 percent are open to his argument. If he gets half of those, he's president."
