And MI and WI?
There’s a lot of time left in the election, so nothing is certain yet
But I can tell you that if the election were held tomorrow, trump vs any of the top 5 dems, trump would lose
He just doesn’t have the margin to bleed support like he has
PA, MI and WI are still swing states because no candidate has a definite answer to their problem
Trump didn't "fix" anything there
Looking at 2018, they might qualify as solidly blue
Nothing's written in stone
yet
Although they have shifted blue
The D governor of MI won by 10% in 2018
By contrast, trump won there in 2016 by .3%
Here are some other fun facts:
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
Also one of “the squad” is from MI, so that doesn’t exactly help trump there
the squad?
And shitting all over AZ doesn’t help him there, which is another swing state
I also think Virginia's cooked
yeah it's not looking good
The squad is AOC, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tliab and Ilhan Omar
Democrats bad
hilarious
I go watch louder with crowder now
Yeah I mean Clinton won VA in 2016 I don’t think there’s any real chance Trump could take it in 2020
Who cares about va

Ahhhhh

@Platinum Spark You know that Trump insults the squad to make sure more people take notice of it
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
Makes it easier to appeal to people who are less on the extremes
Not shocking that when your elections become like a reality tv show, the guy who wins it is a reality tv star
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)
Well, it fires up his base
But it fires up the progressive base too
And when your margin in mi is .3%, you can’t afford to fire up people in Ann Arbor and flint
@Platinum Spark I know the article is about approval ratings, what I said was that he was simply gaining more minority support in a general sense. Also I do not see how the article synonymized approval ratings with vote total, I'm pretty sure it does make a distinction between the two. These two things also tend to correlate, however, so it isn't wrong to say that if these numbers hold the very well can land him a second term, especially given the other things in his favor this time.
