Yet in order to win he must convince the poorly informed, easily influenced muddled middle to support him. They will be bombarded by the Left, the MSM, and the people who control social media to vote for the camouflaged Democrats who at their core despise the American nation, its heritage and capitalism. The stakes will be very high. America cannot afford a Trump loss.
Yet these are the same people who, despite 93% negative coverage of Trump in 2016; despite overwhelming $ disadvantage for Trump; despite every dirty trick from the left, still ended up voting for Trump.
I have Trump at between 320 and 340 electoral votes.
If the President is not careful he will find himself on the defensive again for the rest of his term. The best defense i a good offense and so I hope President Trump has a plan to capture the attention of the American people so they are not caught up in the barrage of false messages they will be receiving.
Also tight controls on illegal voting is a must.
God Bless President Trump
Here’s an excerpt for you:
President Trump is rolling into a post-Independence Day weekend at his Bedminster, N.J., property with reason to feel good about himself and his reelection prospects for 2020.
A number of things are going Trump’s way, leaving him better positioned for victory in a second term.
The first is the economy, which is showing little sign of slowing down.
The monthly employment report issued on Friday showed the economy gained 224,000 jobs in June. Even with minor revisions to job gains in April and May, the economy has added an average of 171,000 jobs over the past three months - a healthy figure.
Wages ticked up slightly, and according to the report are up 3.1 percent for hourly workers over the past 12 months. This is still sluggish, but far from dire news for Trump.
The stock market is also soaring, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average setting a new record high this week on optimism about an end to the U.S.-China trade war - and hopes that the Federal Reserve might lower interest rates.
Markets dropped Friday on the solid jobs report - which reduced the likelihood of a Fed rate cut - and it would be a fool’s errand to predict markets will definitively grow between now and November 2020.
In the big picture, however, markets are up significantly since Trump’s election and will be something he can point to as a positive from his first four years in office.
Top White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said Friday that the recent stock rally and strong jobs report proved that Trump’s policies have fueled “a very strong prosperity cycle.”
“We have very good pro-growth policies, low taxes, deregulation, opening energy, trade reform,” Kudlow said on Bloomberg TV. “I think the incentives of our supply-side policies are working.”
All of this is good news for an incumbent president.
As GOP strategist Ford O’Connell wrote in The Hill this week, the power of incumbency is already a huge predictor. Only a handful of presidents running for reelection have lost since 1900. The number who have lost while managing a strong economy are fewer.
It’s no wonder Trump was in a good mood on Friday.
“We had great numbers this morning,” Trump told reporters outside the White House. “Those were really unexpectedly good, and our country continues to do really well-really, really well.”
Obviously because All the Dem candidates for the nomination, without doubt or exception are Assholes.
Needs to keep pushing the wall and shelling the dems like Pelosi and keep on offense.

If its Biden, Trump will be running against the reality of the Obama economy and foreign policy, not just the aspirational “Hope’s and dreams” that got the base all excited. He will be running against facts with Biden. That’s a huge advantage for Trump.
Now if you get a weak terrible Democrat candidate incapable and probably unwilling to stand up for this country’s interests, you are going to get the Roy Mooreing of POTUS. There will be so many lies and disinformation in the mix that it will not be possible to deal with it all.
That is my feeling on this. I think Trump is better off running against facts rather than a swirling sewer of lies and unsubstantiated aspirational bull-hockey.
In 2016, the Democrat Party runs America's nagging First Wife. In 2020, they'll be running Kamala Brown, America's Psycho Girlfriend- great in bed, but definitely don't want to take home to mama.
Nolte: Democrats Just Had Their Worst Week in 47 Years

Not since the 1972 discovery that George McGovern’s vice presidential pick, Thomas Eagleton, had been hospitalized and given electroshock treatments have the Democrats had a worse week than the one we just concluded.
Because Democrats live on social media and watch CNN, they don’t know this yet…
But they had a catastrophic week — hoo, boy, did they ever — a week that will haunt them straight through to November 2020.
Let us count the ways…
The Fake News Media Is the Only Shrinking Institution in America’s Booming Economy!
Before 2019 is over, there will be upwards of 12,000 job cuts within the American media. That’s 12,000 fewer Democrat foot soldiers; 12,000 fewer propagandists, serial liars, cheerleaders, and toadies to hold Antifa’s jacket as they beat elderly Trump supporters to death with crowbars.
Every industry in Trump’s America is expanding and thriving … except for the media.
What’s more, the Democrats primary propaganda outlet, the far-left CNN, is hemorrhaging viewers like an Ebola victim hemorrhages solid foods.
Where’s your god now, Jeff Zucker?

1) The economy is strong and despite nay-sayers the underlying fundamentals appear strong.
"It's the economy, stupid" is still true. Every concern of the professional skeptics seems to turn in Trump's direction. Trump knows one thing that his critics have trouble understanding: government involvement is more of a hindrance than a help.
2) The competition.
"You can't beat someone with a nobody." This old political truth seems particularly true in this election cycle. What a clown show the Democrats are putting on and people seem to be noticing. Everyday it seems, one of the candidate will announce another lame-brained idea that the others will immediately endorse so as to not lose one of the lunatic fringes of the Democrat Party. By doing so, they alienate more and more of mainstream electorate.
3) Trump has a record to run on.
Trump now has a new group of solid supporters: those skeptical initially but who have become impressed with his performance. Put me in that camp. How many times have you heard someone say 'Trump has done a lot better than I thought he would'? Those are potential voters that may not have had last time.
The mainstream media may have overplayed their hand on the criticism of Trump. When they criticize every trivial thing to make Trump look bad while withholding praise when something obviously good has occurred, they are actually helping Trump. CNN and MSNBC have little credibility with anyone except the liberal extremists because they are so unbalanced with their criticism and praise. If they would admit that Trump did something right once in awhile, their criticisms might have more credibility. As it is now, their predictable criticism is so easily tuned out.
There are some other positive factors but I think that those are the big three right now for why I'm cautiously optimistic. Seventeen months to the election is an eternity in politics so things might change and we should not get complacent. Let's work hard to get Trump re-elected and his supporters in Congress re-elected or elected so he can have some help.
