No. Not close. And to continue this line of analysis is as bad as what the pollsters are doing.

There are still massive D registration advantages to overcome, but they will not and cannot be overcome if this is viewed as a giant “mandate” for Trump.

This comes from one who anticipated his victory a year ago and predicted he would win a half dozen blue states by VERY narrow margins. A “give ‘em a chance” vote is not an “I believe in what you’re doing vote.” And turnout levels FOR Reagan were massively higher than for Trump. Once we understand the nature of the victory, we can build on it.

Your discussion with me has devolved a bit. You are talking as if I claimed in a prior post he had a huge mandate. You are talking with me as if we have some kind of huge argument.

That's never been what I said, I'm not really arguing with you, and it's NOT what I'm suggesting, so please get that straight.

My original post was simple, and I stand by it. My original claim that you are underselling what happened stands.

That's all.
