304 electors voted for him. He needed 270 to win. He was the first Republican to hit the 300 mark since H.W in 1988. G.W Bush just barely won both times in 2000 and 2004.
But as I point out, the Dems need to nominate a quality candidate this time around, and somebody they want to see as the next president.
Fully agree. Quite frankly I don’t think we disagree at all here. As a Republican, I would much rather see a conservative non-religious right person in there. But unfortunately, the GOP nominated a maniac.
Trump is popular with a good majority of those that voted for him. Where he is losing voters is independents and you need those in key states to win the ec. Lets check back in a year or so.
As I mentioned above, the EC college numbers are undercut by the fact he took 3 key states (Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan) with only about 77,000 votes because the DEMs didn’t campaign their properly.
Guess where the DEMs are holding their national convention for 2020.
And surprise surprise the Trump friendly poll that swings wildly has Trump with negative approval now:
49-50. So that’s a nine point swing in three days. Do not trust Rasmussen. Go with Realclear. And even at -1 approval, it’s still the outlier. I’m sure Trump will tweet updated numbers. Not sure if people have picked up on this, but when he finds a good poll number, he references it for weeks well after it drops significantly.
Are those Liberal polls? The Same polls that said there was going to be a huge
blue wave in the midterm elections? The Same Polls that said that Trump didn’t
have any chance in the 2016 Republican Primaries. lol.
I like how now the goal posts are that polls didn’t give Trump a chance in the primaries, yet the only ones that count towards the Republican primaries were…Republicans.
He’s just such a spazzy troll. No one wants to see the President of the United States crying and wailing about his weaknesses and hurt emotions on Twitter. It makes his attempts at authoritarianism that much more stupid and sad.
