At Monday's rally, Trump discussed something new: the psychology of the midterms (maybe he's been reading /rsg/? ;)

From 17:00 to 20:25:

>We’ve got to do well in ’18, and I know we’re going to do great in ’20. But I think we’re going to do well in ’18. I think we’re going to do very well.

>Historically, when you win the presidency — you know the story. Just, for whatever reason it is — and I think I figured it out. Nobody, really, has been able to explain it properly. I think I figured it — the party wins the presidency. And now the people are happy.

>And the people that voted for us become complacent a little bit. And they don’t get out, and they don’t vote like they should. They sort of take it for granted. They sit back. And then they get clobbered because the other people are desperate. And they get out and they have more energy.

>And I have to say this: History is not on our side. You win the presidency and you take it easy, and then they come and surprise you in the midterms.

>I know we’re going to do great in ’20 because, by that time — see, what happens is, if you did badly ’18, now you’re all angry again and now, ’20 comes along.

>So start thinking about ’18, start thinking about November, start finding out exactly that little slot.

Hopefully he realizes just how involved he needs to be

2018-02-12 01:06:06 UTC  

Yeah I think he definitely realizes the midterms are super important and high priority this year

2018-02-12 01:06:13 UTC  

he visited PA-18 after all

2018-02-12 01:06:33 UTC  

if he visited PA-18 for a special election, I'm sure he'll visit a bunch of other battleground areas this year for the midterms

How to flip CA red:

2018-02-12 01:39:44 UTC  

- Massive turnout in amongst rural white voters in Northern and Central Valley California

2018-02-12 01:40:22 UTC  

- Large turnout amongst white suburban Republicans in Southern California

2018-02-12 01:40:55 UTC  

- Swing voters concentrated in SoCal going Republican

2018-02-12 01:41:36 UTC  

- Depressed turnout amongst Hollywood and Bay Democrats

2018-02-12 01:42:42 UTC  

- Low Hispanic turnout

2018-02-12 01:42:52 UTC  

It'd take a miracle

2018-02-12 01:43:07 UTC  

still, feasible if all these conditions are met

2018-02-12 01:43:21 UTC  

lmao you've really lightened up as of late

2018-02-12 01:43:45 UTC  

conditions are looking good so far

2018-02-12 01:44:04 UTC  

better than ever, i can afford to be not-blackpilled for a while

2018-02-12 01:44:38 UTC  

what made you so optimistic?

2018-02-12 01:45:20 UTC  

better poll numbers and tomorrow Trump will unveil his legislative agenda, _and_ the Senate will start working on Trump's immigration proposal, Congress is actually doing its job

2018-02-12 01:45:48 UTC  

How to flip Florida:

2018-02-12 01:45:55 UTC  

-high turnout in Western Florida

2018-02-12 01:46:18 UTC  

-low turnout in Southern Florida

2018-02-12 01:46:33 UTC  

-swing voters everywhere else going GOP on the ticket

2018-02-12 01:47:05 UTC  

-the non-bad Cubans go out to vote

2018-02-12 01:48:29 UTC  

Well, hopefully it goes smoothly, if you're optimistic about the events to come then it should be great stuff in the pipeline

2018-02-12 01:48:54 UTC  

Infrastructure is bipartisan and popular,

2018-02-12 01:49:02 UTC  

should help the Independent vote

2018-02-12 01:49:58 UTC  

@🎃Boo-ton🎃 maybe voter fraud legislation can cause low Hispanic turnout. Having a shitty D candidate could cause depressed turnout among Hollywood / Bay Democrats. A lot of funding can cause high turnout in Northern / Central Valey and SoCal

2018-02-12 01:50:25 UTC  

I wish someone in Congress had the brains to pass it

2018-02-12 01:50:44 UTC  

And the Nehlen anti-censorship legislation for Twitter

2018-02-12 01:50:54 UTC  

speaking of which, RIP

2018-02-12 01:54:36 UTC  

they said MA couldn't flip either, y'know

2018-02-12 01:55:12 UTC  

it's all about those rural White voters and getting enough them out to vote

2018-02-12 02:08:28 UTC  

yeah, Scott Brown marketed himself as a liberal/moderate Republican though

2018-02-12 02:09:12 UTC  

sometimes, you have to vote for someone just so the other guy won't get elected

2018-02-12 02:12:12 UTC  

of course

2018-02-12 02:12:28 UTC  

>$1.5T. Dear goodness

2018-02-12 02:12:35 UTC  

I'm saying that a huge reason why Scott Brown won as a Republican in Massachusetts was because he wasn't a conservative Republican

2018-02-12 02:12:51 UTC  

wow, will we see that budget take effect this year ?

2018-02-12 02:12:57 UTC  

invest in rural areas, huh?

2018-02-12 02:13:08 UTC  

that should cause high rural voter turnout
