The election is FAR DIFFERENT this year.
(1) Back in 2016, Trump had, at best 80% of Republicans. The other 20% either hated him and voted for Hillary (you know, to save the Republic), or didn’t bother voting for either one because they simply didn’t trust Trump, given his history of playing both sides in the his private-sector past.
(2) Now Trump is looking at 95%, providing he doesn’t turn against his base (such as on immigration and/or gun control).
(3) The main Democrat reasons for opposing Trump, that he would blow up the world if elected, or at least tank the economy with his crazy ideas of deregulation are now completely DISPROVEN.
(4) As to the polling - any Trump supporter who cares about his wife and kids is not about to tell a perfect stranger that he supports Trump - given the Democrat Brownshirts that we’re dealing with now.
So, polling is meaningless.
Trump has also increased his popularity with Black and Latino voters.
An old democratic friend who is now on the wrong side of grass told me one tenet that was true then and is true today, “People vote their lunch pails.” Is really is as simple as that. Call Trump a racist, a pig, a neo-nazi, a white supremacist, a homophob, a transgender phob,, anti environmentalist, they are just words. It’s the lunch pail, stupid!”
