And it's so cringe to see the candidates pretend to care about them

2019-09-11 19:24:07 UTC  

Ok, so how is he going to make up all the ground he’s lost in PA?

2019-09-11 19:24:15 UTC  

And MI and WI?

2019-09-11 19:26:55 UTC  

There’s a lot of time left in the election, so nothing is certain yet

2019-09-11 19:27:30 UTC  

But I can tell you that if the election were held tomorrow, trump vs any of the top 5 dems, trump would lose

2019-09-11 19:27:49 UTC  

He just doesn’t have the margin to bleed support like he has

2019-09-11 19:36:00 UTC  

PA, MI and WI are still swing states because no candidate has a definite answer to their problem

2019-09-11 19:36:08 UTC  

Trump didn't "fix" anything there

2019-09-11 19:38:13 UTC  

Looking at 2018, they might qualify as solidly blue

2019-09-11 19:38:31 UTC  

Nothing's written in stone

2019-09-11 19:38:36 UTC  

yet

2019-09-11 19:38:49 UTC  

Although they have shifted blue

2019-09-11 19:38:57 UTC  

The D governor of MI won by 10% in 2018

2019-09-11 19:39:09 UTC  

By contrast, trump won there in 2016 by .3%

2019-09-11 19:39:26 UTC  

Here are some other fun facts:

2019-09-11 19:40:10 UTC  

Trump got fewer votes in MI, WI & PA (each individually and as a whole) in 2016 than George Bush got in those states in 2004 when he lost all three

2019-09-11 19:43:39 UTC  

Also one of “the squad” is from MI, so that doesn’t exactly help trump there

2019-09-11 19:43:56 UTC  

the squad?

2019-09-11 19:44:01 UTC  

And shitting all over AZ doesn’t help him there, which is another swing state

2019-09-11 19:44:17 UTC  

I also think Virginia's cooked

2019-09-11 19:44:22 UTC  

yeah it's not looking good

2019-09-11 19:44:38 UTC  

The squad is AOC, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tliab and Ilhan Omar

2019-09-11 19:44:46 UTC  

Trump good

2019-09-11 19:44:51 UTC  

Democrats bad

2019-09-11 19:44:59 UTC  

hilarious

2019-09-11 19:45:06 UTC  

I go watch louder with crowder now

2019-09-11 19:45:07 UTC  

Yeah I mean Clinton won VA in 2016 I don’t think there’s any real chance Trump could take it in 2020

2019-09-11 19:45:20 UTC  

Who cares about va

2019-09-11 19:45:40 UTC

Learn your classics

2019-09-11 19:47:15 UTC  

Ahhhhh

2019-09-11 19:47:36 UTC  

smh

2019-09-11 21:01:10 UTC  

@Platinum Spark You know that Trump insults the squad to make sure more people take notice of it

2019-09-11 21:02:08 UTC  

Basically, his plan is to get people to focus on the squad and then link the entire Democrat party to the Squad, which is good for Trump

2019-09-11 21:02:30 UTC  

Makes it easier to appeal to people who are less on the extremes

2019-09-11 21:03:28 UTC  

Not shocking that when your elections become like a reality tv show, the guy who wins it is a reality tv star

2019-09-11 21:04:51 UTC  

I mean AOC (for example) is going with the Trumpian view that any publicity is good publicity (even if it makes her seem like a pretentious teenager)

2019-09-11 21:30:46 UTC  

Well, it fires up his base

2019-09-11 21:30:59 UTC  

But it fires up the progressive base too

2019-09-11 21:31:30 UTC  

And when your margin in mi is .3%, you can’t afford to fire up people in Ann Arbor and flint
