You should ALWAYS ask questions first, especially before voting. Part of the problem that has gotten us where we are now is people who vote without asking question, or worse, without thinking.
That includes people who vote for a certain party because that's ths way they've always voted, or because they have been told that people of their particular type (race, ethnicity, sex, orientation, religion, etc.) MUST always vote for a certain party.
A thinking voter always reserves the right to withhold his vote if the choices are too repugnant, or to squander his vote on a third party candidate.
Currently, we need to win the mid-terms. How sweet it would be for right thinking conservatives to gain seats and give the RATS a stunning defeat.
Trump wont be allowed to win in 2020. They thought Hillary was a shoe in so they backed off on the fraud a little. You’re going to see a combination of social media censorship, msm propaganda, and all out voter fraud the likes of which you’ve never seen before.
“He’s tanned. He’s rested. He’s READY.”
Most amazingly... he’s alive!
“Delusional progressives” & “Ineffective never-trump laughingstock” BUMP!
No way will he win 40.But I can see him carrying every state he carried in ‘16 plus NH,MN,NV,CO and maybe VA.
“they were overconfident and didn’t cheat enough. Be prepared for massive cheating on a massive scale.”
Exactly. Cheating is the one thing that will bugger up the works. Thank Heaven all precincts and states aren’t networked together or we’ have no hope. We have to assume they’re setting the strategy for extreme cheating. The dress rehearsal will be this November. Showtime will be 2020.
Thank you for voting democRat! Not voting is a vote for the democRATS!
Regardless of which pig they might nominate.
As for 2020, I think Trump will at least not lose back any of the states he won in 2016. And that will be enough. Any additional states (like NH, MN, CO, VA) will be bonus.
Nope,Liawatha will be the nominee.But it seems possible that Willie Brown's main squeeze might be the running mate.
Trump won 30 states last time. I don’t see the 10 he flips in 2020.
I believe THAT photo will get him reelected in 2020.
Americans, traditionally, love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle. When you were kids, you all admired the champion marble shooter, the fastest runner, the big league ball players, the toughest boxers. Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time.
My take.... Abe can’t beieve what he is wittnessing
1. Healthcare. Trump owns it now and it's getting worse.
2. Trade war. Trump has said that they're easy to win. Well that may be a bit of an exaggeration but still, winning will take time and in the mean time there will be a lot of pain in terms of higher prices for imported goods and lower demand for our exports. That's going to cost businesses and jobs.
3. Deficit. We're on track for a trillion dollar deficit. Taming that requires deep cuts, and while Trump has recognized the need for slashing spending in his budget proposals all of those cuts in discretionary spending gores someone's ox. If he can get Congress to go along then who bears the pain will play into the election. If Congress doesn't go along then Trump is saddled with trillion dollar deficits in a time of tremendous economic strength.
4. Immigration and the wall. Still one of his biggest campaign promises and still not happening. Not to the extent his base wants.
5. He has his base, he needs to keep the rest of his voters. I don't agree with you that Trump will do that well among African-Americans. He needs to keep the traditionally Democrat voters he flipped last time, or at least keep them home. That's what got him Michigan and Pennsylvania and Wisconsin last time. Democrats will be just as motivated as Trump's base will be so it depends on who attracts those who voted for him last time.
1. New Hampshire
2. Minnesota
3. Nevada
4. Maine
5. Virginia
6. Colorado
7. New Mexico
In 2016 Trump was close in #1 through #3 and was within striking distance in Maine. Some of the rest are a stretch. Delaware might be #8, with perhaps a 2% chance of going for Trump in 2020.
The Dem party has the power to grant your wish. They could do this by nominating an ultra leftist candidate.
I am struggling to think of any moderate Democrat who has even a slim chance of winning the nomination. He'd be annihilated in the primaries, and driven from politics in utter disgrace.
So dream on, because Trump could indeed break 500 EV.
foolishness
O ye of little faith and no patience
Fickleness is a poor way to live
By that measure, you wouldn't have cast a vote in a single election since 1792.
No offense, but that's the mark of a pathetic loser.
I don’t believe there’s a chance in hell Trump could ever win most of New England, New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Illinois, and California. He’d lose some of these states even if he ran unopposed.
