We can't reach the hard-core cult members.

But we don't need them. In 2018, the Democrats won with an 8 point lead. There's no reason the Democrats can meet that, or do better in 2020.

If you want to see what an 8 point lead looks like on the electoral map . . .
. . . check out the results from the 1988 election.

The only time we've had the winner of the popular vote lose the electoral college has been in close elections.

8 points isn't close.

Trump can get 45.6 percent of the vote (a lot of people) and lose big time . . .
But if you look at his approval rating and compare his approval rating to how incumbents have done when running for a second term, you can see his chances of getting as high as 45% are slim to none.

It seems to me that the biggest danger in November. . .
is the anti-Trump vote either splitting, or people getting discouraged and staying home.

Agree ⤵️

With Trump's numbers, we're looking at a blowout in November IF people work very, very hard.

We're wiser than we were in 2016. We get the dangers. . .

The biggest landslide in our nation's history was 1964, when Lyndon Johnson won with about 62% of the vote.

Those are numbers too big to manipulate. (Cheating works in close elections. Look at Florida 2000).

Why do you think Trump embarked on Operation Ukraine Shakedown? . . .
He embarked on Operation Shakedown because he knew he was going to lose big time.

One thing Trump knows how to do is read polls.

Giuliani is still in Ukraine trying to dig up dirt on Biden, but Pul-lease. . .
only cult members will believe the hogwash.

Schiff and the House Managers right now are making sure that Americans totally get Trump's game.

What will people do if, say, Warren is the nominee and, say, China launches a criminal investigation into her actons

They'll do this:🤣
Anyone who has ever canvassed for a candidate knows this: The campaign sends you out to talk to people who are inclined to vote for the candidate.

The way to win isn't to convert Hannity viewers.

The way to win is get everyone else to vote.
