College-educated whites who've been quiet in their support for Donald Trump will emerge in droves to vote for the Republican presidential candidate on Election Day, veteran political analyst Dick Morris, a former adviser to President Bill Clinton, tells Newsmax TV.
"People who do not normally vote — high school-educated whites largely — and normally stay out of the process are now thronging into the electorate to vote for Trump," Morris, author of "Armageddon: How Trump Can Beat Hillary," said Thursday to J.D. Hayworth on "America Talks Live."

"To give you a feel of how extensive this could be, if you take the final days polling in every one of the primaries and you compare the vote share they predicted Donald would get with the vote share he actually got on the primary itself, it's a 5-point difference.
"Five points where people who did not vote for him in the poll but then turned out and voted for him in the election. That could be because they were embarrassed to say they were voting for him. More likely they said they wouldn't vote and then in the last few days before the election changed their mind, deciding he was worth voting for."
Morris said many Americans who back the billionaire real estate tycoon "used to be called the Reagan Democrats, they used to be called the silent majority — and now they're called Trump supporters."
Morris' best-selling book, which has spent months on the New York Times and Amazon bestseller lists, is written with Eileen McGann and published by Humanix.
