Newt Gingrich: Trump trounced by Biden in 2020? Don't bet on it. Here's why
Fox News ^ | May 2, 2020 | Newt Gingrich

Posted on 05/02/2020 8:40:49 AM PDT by jazusamo

As a student of history, it is painful to watch today’s so-called reporters and analysts pontificate about the Nov. 3, 2020 election outcome. We are currently six months away from that event.

Yet analyst after analyst and TV host after TV host will claim if the election were held today Joe Biden would win – as if the Trump supporters should panic or collapse in despair.

To some extent, this kind of presentism even infects the White House and Republican leaders and activists.

Yet, presentism is incredibly misleading in a period of change. Remember: At this point in 2015, it was inconceivable that Donald Trump would become the Republican nominee. At this point in 2016, the same analysts and talking heads who are touting Joe Biden today were touting Hillary Clinton and predicting Trump would be a disastrous failure taking the Republicans down to defeat.

But, of course, the elections are not held in early May.

~snip~

In the real campaign, Biden will melt like a snow cone in a Miami August.

Why am I so certain Biden will melt?

There are three things Biden will find insurmountable

First, Biden has always been a terrible candidate, and he is getting worse.

When the American people shift from the COVID-19 disaster, the Chinese Communist dictatorship’s horrible behavior, and the economic collapse brought about by the panic, they will suddenly encounter the real Biden.

It will be painfully clear that he could never function as commander in chief. In fact, Biden’s personal weaknesses are so deep and so obvious that there is at least one chance in 10 the Democrats will dump him at the last moment out of desperation.

Second, the Obama-Biden record will come into contrast with the Trump administration record.

Will people blame the economic hard times on Trump? Would they really think that Biden or another Democrat will somehow restore the economy????

These days, any candidate having his wife for a mouthpiece, especially a democrat, will sink.

It is fantastic to think there are enough stipid people in this country to elect a senile, brain damaged, crooked, coniving, paedophile, letcher like Plugs Biden.

"it is the economy, stupid."

Except all but the most brain-dead Dems realize this economy is not Trump's fault. Trump should - and will - run on a platform of, "hey, I brought back a sagging economy once, I can do it again."

Biden is not going to be the candidate. His week by week deterioration is obvious. IMO the question is whether Hillary or Michelle wins out.

The ONLY thing that could keep Trump from winning is illegal voting/fraud, P.E.R.I.O.D.

es, “it’s the economy stupid”. One candidate made the economy great. I think the voters will think he can do it again.

Make America Great Again, Again!


Agree. Trump will point out how the Obama Biden economy was stagnant, and that the shovel ready recovery in O’s own words wasn’t ready.

Contrast that with his proven record of plan , implement, execute, show results. and to anyone other than a Trump deranged or “ freebie voter” the choice is very simple.

In Washington State, we have Airhead Inslee who tried to run for President. (LOLOL)
He dictated from on high, demanding we shelter in place for another month until June first.

Last night, Judge Neapolitano said, and I quote:

Governors don’t write the law and assess punishments, only legislatures do.”

He then added, “Even then, they must follow the Constitution.”

I say, Open up NOW, or pretty soon we won’t have a country to open up !

Of course, if Biden continues to harp the global warming hoax talking points, Newt will give him his unqualified endorsement.

The only way that I will not vote against Democrats is if I am sealed in a box. But even a victory will ring hollow if America is in tatters.

Yeah but this time they will be ready with boxes of ballots in car trunks until they know how many they need to win-after the polls are closed. They really believed the polls saying that Hillary would win. This time they will be ready.

Any precinct with OVER 100% of eligible voters voting should NOT be counted. 244 counties have more registered voters than live adults. https://publicinterestlegal.org/blog/244-counties-have-more-registered-voters-than-live-adults/
