I'm sure he's going to get elected. I didn't vote for him and the reason why I say he will is because everything about him and this whole deal I've been wrong on, so I'm going with the opposite of what I would say. LOL

Economy is doing great, unemployment is the lowest in decades and all of the other talking points.

The incumbent usually wins, just look at the historical pattern the last 50 years or so.....

If trump can just keep us out of some kind of major war and if the economy doesn't tank and especially if the dems put up some kind of loon like Pocahontas, or someone of her ilk then it's in the bag for the tango tinted buffoon, the mango Mussolini, the one with small hands.

Go figure

You don't get the difference between just popping off your mouth and putting your ideas on the table before the electorate and putting them into action.

Historically speaking, it wasn’t close to a landslide, except in the bizarro world of Donald Trump and his faithful toadies.

There's a word for those who talk about how "close" it was... losers.



The real point is that it was projected to be a landslide... by Hillary.

And leftist dolts don't know the difference between 306 and 232. What is needed to win again?

AWESOME, glad we don't go by the popular vote, because we don't want as little as 10 states making a decision on who is the president of 57 sta.....sorry.... 50 states.
