Donald Trump is facing the prospect of a landslide loss
CNN ^ | June 25,2020 | Chris Cillizza

Posted on 06/25/2020 2:31:17 PM PDT by Rennes Templar

(CNN)A half dozen new swing-state polls released Thursday morning suggest that not only would President Donald Trump lose if the election were held today, he would lose in a landslide.

The surveys, conducted by The New York Times and Siena College, show Trump trailing former Vice President Joe Biden by double digits in Michigan (Biden +11), Wisconsin (Biden +11) and Pennsylvania (Biden+ 10) and by mid-single digits in North Carolina (Biden +9), Arizona (Biden +7) and Florida (Biden +6).

Trump won every one of those states in the 2016 election. Switch them from red to blue and you can quickly see just how bad hings look for Trump at the moment.

And, thanks to CNN's handy dandy "Road to 270" interactive electoral maps, we can do just that! Give Biden those six states -- Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Arizona and Florida -- and keep the rest of the 2020 map just as it was in 2016, and the Democratic nominee has 333 electoral votes to just 205 for Trump. That would be a larger Electoral College margin than President Barack Obama won with in his 2012 reelection.

But even that doesn't capture how dark things could get for Trump. Consider: * A Quinnipiac University poll in Ohio released Wednesday showed Biden at 46% to Trump's 45%. (A Fox News poll released in early June showed Biden at 47% to Trump's 45%). If Ohio went to Biden, he would be at 351 electoral votes. * A Des Moines Register poll earlier this month put Trump at 44% and Biden at 43% in Iowa. Give Biden Iowa and he's at 357 electoral votes.

Absurd as this story is, this kind of fake news is necessary for the voter fraud they intend to perpetrate.

Welcome to the new Chris Cillizza same as the old Chris Cillizza only worse.
He made exactly the same prediction in 2016 using the same words. He probably cut and pasted from the 2016 article.
Ah well.
Same result. Trump will win. Easily.

Do you know anyone who voted for Trump in 2016 who will vote for Biden in 2020?

Yes, I do. More than one. Suburban moms. Trump is facing a humiliating rout in this demographic.

On the day before the Special Election in upstate New York this week, the NY Times ran the following headline: “Democrats see hope in election for vacant Republican seat”. The next day the Republican, Jacobs, won by 69-29 percent over the Dem, a spread of forty percentage points. Two weeks before the 2016presidential election, Rachel Maddow was crowing about some nonsensical polls that showed Trump and the female criminal tied in South Carolina and Kansas; she wasn’t laughing so much two weeks later. Let the corrupt, biased pigs of the press stew in their own juices and lies.

Dateline 5 February 2021, ex-Speaker Pelosi has called for former President Obama to be appointed as an Independent Prosecutor into the Chinese Interference that enabled Donald J Trump to win the 2020 Presidential Election. Praising the former President for him immaculate record on race and scandal, she stated that only he, by virtue of his outstanding record, could delve into the murky records of how the Taiwan Administration was able to shift the computer vote from the late Joseph Biden to Trump in spite of the massive mail-in votes that the DNC has proof of harvesting!

She further pledge her support to Hillary Clinton, Biden’s emergency replacement for the late ...

Professor and Political Scientist Helmut Norpoth, accurately predicted Trump's 2016 victory a full 9 months before the election. He now says President Trump has a 91% chance of winning in November, and here is why....

⤵️

The Primary Model (2020)

91-95% Certain Trump Will Be Re-elected

The Primary Model gives President Trump a 91% chance of winning a possible match-up with Democrat Joe Biden in November, based on primary performance in New Hampshire and South Carolina, plus the first-term electoral benefit. Trump would get 362 electoral votes, Biden 176.

In a possible match-up with Bernie Sanders in November, Trump’s chance of winning would rise to 95%. In that scenario, Trump would get 390 electoral votes, Sanders 148.

Caution: The massive disruptions caused by the Coronavirus outbreak may prompt me to revise the forecast, especially if there is a crack in Trump support. ⬅️ WTF believes there will be a CRACK in TRUMP support?? 😆 🤣

⤵️ Trump not a bad bet to win reelection


⤵️ Joe Biden lead in polls does not ensure final victory for election

I believe one of several things will happen. You can take this to the bank.
Trump win, landslide.
Biden win, landslide.
Neither gets 270, goes to House, Biden wins.
Close, Biden win.
Close, Trump win.

I pray that your liberal friends from Boston are right!

BTW, it’s been a brutal day both on Fox Channels and online with all the horrendous double digit deficits for our great POTUS.

Republicans and Democrats and independents are watching the Democrat loyal crazed brute squad burn the catastrophic Democrat mis-managed cities down, and they are blaming Trump.

Yeah. That makes sense.

“....I’m withholding judgement on the polls because of what happened in 2016 - but I get the feeling that Election Night will be either a GOP landslide across the board or we’re gonna get out butts handed to us in a really bad way.

I pray for the sake of this nation that we don’t go the latter route.....”

Agree 100%

“Thus, if no 2016 Trump voters are voted for Biden in 2020, there is no way that Trump can lose.”

He won in 2016 because the demonrats underestimated the number of fraudulent votes they needed to generate.

Trump not only got more votes than the demonrats, he covered the margin of fraud.

The demonrats do not intend to allow this to happen again. They are determined to produce enough fraudulent votes to give the appearance of having won.

If nothing is done, this is what will happen.
