    Just did the interactive electoral map and went the aggressive route which gave Biden 405 to 131. If only it could be that much of a blow out.
    It's a hopeless situation...
  • Trump will somehow win.


    I live in the Northeast ( New Hampshire ) I can tell you the amount of Trump signs in 2016 vs 2020 is way down , the amount of BLM signs have honestly surprised me , I feel hope and I really thing people will make the correct decision.

    I have no doubt that if it is close that Trump will dispute but in the end will still fall.

    God Forbid we have another four years , I think the senate will flip and the dems will hold the house and that takes a lot away from him. I don't want to think that route right now. I figure I can be optimistic and if Biden wins that keeps rolling , if he loses at least I had hope for a couple of days.

    I have noticed that in Indiana.  My FB feed is full of tRumpsters but driving cross county a few weeks ago we noticed that the Biden/Trump signs were break even.  Four years ago there were significantly more tRump signs.

    with this many people voting, I have a feeling this is going to be a trouncing. the media is going to keep saying it's close no matter what; they need to keep the drama as high as possible so people tune in. 

    I don't know. I just have this feeling he's going down in an epic ball of orange fire.

    i go back and forth, but i think the pollsters, even though they were only wrong within the margin of error in 2016, are going to be extra conservative with making their predictions.

    Voter turnout has to be a sign comparing to 2016. I just don't see Trump gaining those extra votes to put him over again where he barely won last time.

    agreed. it's two fold. trump hasn't really increased his base at all, and with the turnout looking massive, that has to translate into big numbers for biden.

    Dems misjudged this one, and it will be studied and discussed for the next 4 years.  The trump base is enormous and energized like they weren’t in 2016, and he gained a TON of never Trumpers, Hispanics and black votes this time around.

    Is that enormous Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat base energized by those Hillary, Obama and Sleepy Woke Joe Basement Biden indictments?

    Team Trump Treason Tax Cheat picked up 1% of black voter support and 6% of Hispanic voters but he’s way, way down in every other demographic, including NCW and particularly suburban women. Hardly “enormous.” Keep the jokes coming.

    Texas in 2012 was +16 GOP, 2016 +9 GOP, this one is going to be closer than that. Maybe that is what he is talking about? Texas closer than Dems imagined?

    with this many people voting, I have a feeling this is going to be a trouncing. the media is going to keep saying it's close no matter what; they need to keep the drama as high as possible so people tune in. 

    I don't know. I just have this feeling he's going down in an epic ball of orange fire. 
    I'm really nervous bud after 2016.
    i go back and forth, but i think the pollsters, even though they were only wrong within the margin of error in 2016, are going to be extra conservative with making their predictions. 
    Voter turnout has to be a sign comparing to 2016. I just don't see Trump gaining those extra votes to put him over again where he barely won last time. 
    agreed. it's two fold. trump hasn't really increased his base at all, and with the turnout looking massive, that has to translate into big numbers for biden. 

    IT HAS TO
    Dems misjudged this one, and it will be studied and discussed for the next 4 years.  The trump base is enormous and energized like they weren’t in 2016, and he gained a TON of never Trumpers, Hispanics and black votes this time around.  

    If this is the case, the studying will be for naught.  The Democratic Party is done.  It's a one-party system: the GOP/Party of Trump.  And my statement that the United States exists in the image of Donald Trump is right, and my fears of autocracy aren't nearly as crazy as many of you think.

    I will be shocked if Texas goes to Biden.  If texas does go blue I will play you are 38 times in a row to represent the 38 electoral votes Biden got in the Lone Star State.
    Doesn't count if you don't take a video and post it ;) Maybe even do multiple camera angles so @mrussel1 can make a video from the raw footage.
    It's a hopeless situation...
