A few problems with that article. 1) The economy is softening and manufacturing is already cutting way back. 2) It doesn't factor in things like impeachment which are getting very serious. 3) Polls just aren't in his favor in general.

I wouldn’t bet my savings either way and with them I will continue to enjoy retirement, play on. Looking forward to a double header, Tiger winning and tying Sam Snead’s record of 82 wins and Pats going 8-0.

Trump skated, 75,000 votes in three states. He barely won.

how were the pills looking up until
election day in 2016?

if he gets a favorable trade deal with china, that buys him a boatload of political capital.

the democrat candidate will
need enormous black turnout, which is a big reason why hilary lost. will
any of them, besides biden or
harris, get that? not clear to
me who would.

Who wins the World Series, the team that scores the most runs, or the team that wins the most games?

The popular vote means absolutely nothing, except for maybe creating headlines.

Were there hanging chads there too?

Five times a candidate has won the popular vote and lost the election. Andrew Jackson in 1824 (to John Quincy Adams); Samuel Tilden in 1876 (to Rutherford B. Hayes); Grover Cleveland in 1888 (to Benjamin Harrison); Al Gore in 2000 (to George W. Bush); Hillary Clinton in 2016 (to Donald J. Trump).

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

He also knows that the word “crush” implies a stunning victory.

He barely beat her and if Bernie was not in the picture she would have won.

it was not close by electoral
votes. he literally won, i think, every single state that was up
for grabs.

if popular vote meant anything, he would have campaigned differently. hilary should have spent less time
in California and more with the deplorables in Ohio and Wisconsin. did hilary think it was decided by popular vote? she sure campaigned that way

Haha. He crushed her. She’s still not over it and he crushed all the little snowflakes who clearly have not gotten over it and are still stunned

I wonder what qualifies as a stunning victory if it was not Trump beating Hillary like a baby seal.

It’s sad that you guys think the popular vote means noting. It literally means that you think your vote is worthless. Or in other words, our democracy is a sham. Maybe it is.

Well, we don’t really live in a democracy, so there’s that.

And your vote counts, in your state. Unless you vote other than blue in Massachusetts, then it’s worthless.

“I worked with John Kelly, and he was totally unequipped to handle the genius of our great President,”


Presidents press secretary Grisham said in a statement.


I think Most normal people see this statement for what it is. a base only message

The base is not what got Trump elected .. But having their rallies and repeating how huge they are publicly idolized Trump as the nation's saviour. during them and this comment from the POTUS press secretary
clearly have gone full blown Cult
