Trapped how?

Trapped how?

I hope that you are right.
Defund the police. He has to support it.
I don’t agree. 2000 was the definition of razor thin. Almost a 1% win in two of the three states, only one of which was needed for a victory is a close win but not razor thin.
I just think the jobs from last month served notice of a bounce back. Who knows but I think with things like “de-fund the police”, Trump is going to win.
I don’t agree that 2016 was razor thin.
Trump won 306 to 232. For Hillary to have pulled the victory, she would have had to win at MINIMUM Pennsylvania and Michigan, plus picked off another 2 electoral votes somewhere. Let’s not forget that Gary Johnson pulled nearly 4% of the vote in each of those states and it doesn’t look like he’s running this time. Maybe I’m wrong but I think that bodes well for Trump.
Let’s do a fun comparison:
30 days out from 2016 election
Pennsylvania - Clinton 9.0%
Michigan - Clinton - 10.7%
Wisconsin - Clinton 6.8%
Results
Pennsylvania - Trump .7%
Michigan - Trump .3%
Wisconsin - Trump .7%
Today
Pennsylvania - Biden 5.7%
Michigan - Biden 3.4%
Wisconsin - Biden 3.4%If the same pattern held, the results in those three states would be as follows:
Pennsylvania - Trump 6.4%
Michigan - Trump 3.7%
Wisconsin - Trump 4.1%Now, I’m not suggesting it’s going to be a one for one conversion but I’d suggest that trusting the polls today is probably silly. Even the DAY before the election in those three states showed 2.6%, 3.7% and 7.2% differences in the election day poll. If I were on the left, I’d be terrified that Biden is polling less than half of Hillary’s lead in those three critical states.
Either way, November will be fun because the left is going to be freaking out if Trump wins a 2nd term… even more so than they are today. Think he was hard to get along with the first 4 years? Think of what he’s going to do the next 4 when he knows there’s no re-election coming.
And he’s cleared out most of the dross at the top of the DoJ, FBI, NSA, CIA… It will mean the wholesale replacement of any other Obama holdovers in the administration. And the remaking of Government departments to uphold the Constitution in deed and not just in word.
Funny how the refuse to concede stuff is yet another liberal projection. Hell, your side STILL hasn’t given up on 2016…
The first woman candidate had to send a man out to console her supporters, because of well woman issues.

Too bad you were not on the forum during the 2008 or 2012 that for certain McCain or Romney would win.

I was on the forum back then and I was livid that Romney won because I thought it guaranteed a loss. Same with McCain, I was ticked because I hate liberal lite. I felt like it was going to be hard to beat Obama both times but a better candidate could have won.
I got Biden at 344 to Trump’s 193.
Biden takes Michigan, Pennsylvania, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Florida goes to Biden due to better standing with older voters.
Trump holds onto Georgia and Texas.
Arizona goes to Biden.
Trump keeps Ohio.
Biden takes NC. That is my only real tossup. If Trump takes NC then it is Biden 329 and Trump 208.

Nobody could have beaten Obama in 2008.

I can agree with all of this.
It’s good to dream big dreams.
Maybe… I do suspect we sent McCain to the slaughter because that was the consensus.
