Loving all these historical comparisons from people who really have no idea what they're talking about.

The Democratic nominee will have to carry Florida if they hope to defeat Donald Trump.

Ohio and Iowa are Re-elect States. He looks more solid in Wisconsin everyday.
So, national polls — which I've said more times than I can count, DO NOT MATTER at this time — are also apples to oranges from decades ago. Demographically, they do not reflect the Electoral College like they used to years ago.

Florida resisted a strong D move in 2018...
Florida resisted a strong Democratic mood and move in 2018. I know, Amendment 4. As of now, there's no evidence it'll have the impact some whipped up.

Donald Trump will be difficult to beat in Florida and he'll be almost impossible to defeat without it. peoplespunditdaily.com/news/elections…

You all know how I feel about early general election polls. That's especially true of adult and even registered voter samples.

But wow.

@Rasmussen_Poll has @realDonaldTrump WAY UP over @BernieSanders. The internals are very ugly for Democrats. It's a complete wipe out.
@Rasmussen_Poll @realDonaldTrump @BernieSanders Here are the crosstabs for those who have access. The top problem is how poorly Bernie Sanders performs among women.

Worth noting, NBC and others favorable to Bernie show significant underperformance among female voters.

They just weighted differently.

@Rasmussen_Poll @realDonaldTrump @BernieSanders Actually, let's go over some notables from this poll because, again, it's not much difference from NBC. Just weighted differently.

Trump carries workers $30k-$50k by 17 points, 56%/39%. He only trails one income group, ≤ $30k, albeit by 2 points, which Bernie carries 48%/46%.

1. While I see obvious similarities between Trump and Sanders, there are many big differences—clearly too difficult for the media mind to comprehend.

Donald Trump faced and defeated a deep bench of pols with both political talent with governing experience.

Not Bernie Sanders.
2. The second big difference between Trump and Sanders is where each falls on the spectrum.

Big media never understood. Trump's positions were firmly in the American Middle, and largely aligned w/ Republican orthodoxy.

Some would argue the true orthodoxy.

Not Bernie Sanders.
3. There's an important distinction between the legitimate grievances Trump and Sanders speak to, and their proposals to address them.

While Middle America agrees with both of them on the grievances themselves, they don't agree with both on how to address them.

CBS allowed a question to be posed to Pete Buttigieg, without it being corrected, about Russia interfering to help Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.

That's fake news, folks. On a major network's presidential debate.
Now Amy Klobuchar just used a baseless, and dangerous claim about voter suppression in Georgia to pander to black voters in South Carolina.

Also, fake news, folks.
Now Elizabeth Warren just repeated the lie about her boss "wishing her luck" and "sent me packing" because she was pregnant.

That of course is bullshit. Didn't happen. But hey, she figured it would be cool to use to attack Michael Bloomberg.

Unbelievable lies tonight.

Trump's been roasting Congress since 1993 lol
the first half hehe

Trump has been the same person ever since he's been in public eye, and yet, the American people still elected him...

When will the Democrats learn?
1999 - Roger Stone talked about the decision of Donald Trump to form a presidential exploratory committee. He focused on Trump’s membership in the Reform party, & Trump’s agenda for his campaign.

Based on this nbc data you can still find lots of bot/troll accounts twitter missed.
how to:
Search hashtags ON a date.
Search for the actual tweets.
the accounts all "look" the same, low status counts, low follower counts, created at the same tnbcnews.com/tech/social-me…gbquNiCcd2
just using that and a tip from @z3dster gets me 6 accounts to look at.

@MarlonStepherd
@Mich_Heart_Rt
@DannyyyyPayton
@Joe_B_R
@worynynizuzy
@rogyvahumin

those are all troll factory/internet research agency accounts.
so pull the accounts that follow them.
you get all these shady looking accounts with the same stats.
drop the false positives, drop the duplicates. you get about 180 accounts worth looking at.
