    Trump stood on stage with the looser and said, if he looses it really makes me look bad. The people responded by voting for the other guy.
    If trump won Kentucky by 30 pts last time I'd say he will win it again, by maybe 10-15. Compound that with every other state that he wins (by half what he did last time) and the popular vote will be staggeringly lopsided for the democrat. Now just lose a couple states he won last time which is entirely likely, almost inevitable, and he is toast. He won't win a single state that he lost last time, all he can do is lose them.

    In a state like Kentucky that voted for trump by 30 pts just a few years ago? Maybe not excited but certainly encouraging!

    Remember a couple of years ago when ironic tidbits like this seemed newsworthy?

    Now we've grown accustomed to the lies and deceptions.

    He'll always have about 42% of the nation. True blue Republicans. He won't have the middle, who were Bernie supporters who voted against Clinton. He won't have labor, who now knows that he's a liar.

    He might not get one female to vote for him that isn't an 'obedient' Southerner who isn't allowed to vote against her husband's choice.

    Remember when trump had to look over Melania's voting machine to make sure she voted for him?

    Unpopular for the same fucking reasons that your dumbshit is, they held the identical views on virtually every issue. You are right they are becoming unpopular.

    With farm bankruptcies up about 90% in the mid-west and their soy rotting in it's silos i'd bet there has to be a few farmers that are contemplating not voting for Trump.

    Trump showed up 2 days ago to put his power and reputation in back of the incumbent. Incumbents have a huge advantage. The message is that Trump is not helpful politically. That is what will turn the intelligent rightys to turn on Trump.

    trump wasn't on the ballot. The aforementioned issues are important on the local level, which is ultimately what this election was about. The fact that trump is attempting to do the same on the national level makes it very odd that any Republican governor would put all of his eggs in that basket.

    Anecdotal stories are nice, they just aren't factual, is all, they're story telling and hear say, and it's obvious Democrats are extremely fearful and desperate, having shot up any credibility in theri media or their base of net shills, who merely substitute spam and and lame insults as 'proof' of whatever it is they're told to to parrot any given day.

    Yes there are. I was just reading comments yesterday. Unfortunately, there won't be enough to swap a Midwest state to blue. Doesn't matter. He won't get Pa, Wisconsin, or Minnesota. Fla is a tossup, but as they say...angry people are more motivated to vote.

    You don't think he'll get PA? He'll loss our big cities, but win the strength of our state, the rural and small town vote. We're not angry and we're still motivated. Just like in 2016.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    and I was encouraged when Trump won Michigan by more than twice that.......a state that Obama won 12 years ago......and currently John James, a black Republican, is neck and neck with Gary Peters for the senate seat.....two years ago he trailed Debbie Stabinaw by 30 points........that's pretty much enough to tip me into excited......

    Trump made it about himself. He was on the ballot.
