Here's why Donald Trump can totally win in 2020
CNN Politics ^ | July 9, 2019 | Chris Cillizza, Editor-at-large

Electability, many liberal Democrats will tell you this cycle, is a farce. It doesn't really exist. It's simply a scare tactic used by establishment, centrist Democrats to keep voters from choosing a true-blue liberal for the nomination to run against President Donald Trump in 2020.

And there's some evidence to suggest they're right -- namely Trump himself. Trump's GOP opponents in the 2016 race spent the entire campaign insisting that in nominating the controversial billionaire the party would be forgoing its chances of beating Hillary Clinton in the general election. Then, Trump won. So long, electability!

Except that in a new Washington Post-ABC News poll there's at least the suggestion that who Democrats nominate could make a difference in whether Trump wins a second term or not. Former Vice President Joe Biden leads Trump 53%-43% in that national survey. But Biden is the only Democrat with a statistically significant edge over the incumbent. California Sen. Kamala Harris took 48% to Trump's 46%, while Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders stood at 49% to Trump's 48%. Trump was tied with both Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg.

President Trump is a lock unless the Democrats cheat more than usual, like getting non-citizens voting in record numbers.

Hs Shotgun Joe Biden the Groping Pedo ever been right about anything in his 50 Years of living off the Taxpayer dime?

Even Moochelle Obama didn’t defend him when she had a chance at that Racist Essence Black Conference she attended.

I can write a far more succinct assessment than this drivel.

Trump will win in 2020 because of the Democrat Party created situation with illegal aliens.

This is why I love the Electoral College. The Dems can cheat like hell in New York and California. They probably did so in 2016. But you have to win enough states to get to 270. In the current climate, the Dems have to win CA, NY and IL plus form a coalition of second-tier states like MI, NC, OH, VA and PA to get to 270. Likewise, Republicans must take TX, FL and OH then a coalition of second-tier states to get to 270.

Trump’s appeal is to middle and lower-class people largely in the Midwest and South that feel disaffected by decisions from the elites in Washington. Try as they might, the elites haven’t detached Trump from his base. So, they’ve toyed with every way they can think of to fix the game and take the next election.

This column basically explains their efforts have failed.

CNN is trying to lull the loyal Trump supporters into complacency, by feigning a sense of certainty, when the actual election tally is anything but certain. In 2020, the fraud and challenges in court on recounts by the Democrats will be on steroids, amping up all the earlier efforts to turn Red states at least purple, if not all over to Blue.

An unrestrained effort to reverse the effects of the last three biennial elections is well under way.

By any means necessary, legal or not.

In order for Trump to “totally” win in 2020, patriots need to do the following.

Patriots need to finish the job that they started when they elected him in 2016 by electing a new patriot Congress that will promise to support his vision for MAGA, now KAG.

“Trump will win in 2020 because of the Democrat Party created situation with illegal aliens.”

Agreed, and it’s so obvious that maybe the Democrats are doing this on purpose for a reason that we don’t know.

Could it be that they want to keep screaming for socialism regardless of who’s president, knowing that long-term they are edging us in that direction?

The plan to replace populations was already firmly in place when the Communist Manifesto was published.

As it specifically relates to the United States, by the late forties American socialists realized that their rank and file were below replacement fertility and Christian fundamentalists out-bred them just under three to one as an average.

Survival of their Ideology absolutely requires bringing in socialists from outside, and forcing conservatives to curb their breeding.

Homosexual activist Mark Morford’s columns in the San Francisco Chronicle represent what was already mainstream thinking in the communist circles within ivy league colleges sixty years ago. They have stuck to their plan.

We used to have long discussions about all of this in the S2 shop during my first enlistment.

“unless the Democrats cheat more than usual, like getting non-citizens voting in record numbers.”

Which they will do. Why should’nt they ... no one is ever convicted of it and no elections have ever been reversed because of it.

That is why I believe no matter who the rats pick, they will win in 2020.

Interesting post. Are you suggesting that a socialist tendency is in the genes — that socialists are born and not made?

And they will, like a dog returning to its vomit, they cannot stop cheating.

And I definitely like dogs better than Democrats.

No.
I am suggesting that they use all manner of birth control, and that before Roe versus Wade they had illegal abortions and anonymous infant drop offs because they don’t want to invest their lives in child rearing.

It’s not like these behaviors were terribly secret either.
Try adding biographies to your reading list for a few years.

I wasn’t using fertility rates in the biological sense, but in the sociological context in which the term has been also used for many decades now.

So just how is DJT going to overcome the SocialDemocrat control of the vote count in the largest cities in just about every state? The Democrats found out with the results of their test runs in ‘16 and ‘18 that they can make up all the votes they need and the fraudulent count will be accepted with the barest murmur. Why would they not run that scam in all those SocDem big cities in ‘20? they screwed up in Florida last time due only to incompetence.

You haven’t been anticipating that Federal Marshals will suddenly appear to monitor the vote count and the custody chain of votes based on things Trump has been doing these last few years?

I will be overjoyed to see it happen . I hope you have discerned something I have missed. The marshals can come, though, and the phoney votes still be accepted. The only way to ameliorate that is something like disqualifying all of a city’s votes if that city produces more votes than voters available.

I’m not keeping up. Socialists don’t want to reproduce?

You say they don’t want to invest their lives in child rearing. What do they want to invest their lives in?
