Oh my.

All of the Democratic candidates -- even the farthest to the left "socialist" ones -- are ahead of Trump in Michigan.

I can hear it now, "no path to 270", polls were wrong, etc. Well it ain't 2016 no mo'.

True, Sanders did pull off an upset when he beat Clinton in the Michigan 2016 primary. So having him just as strong as Biden in beating Trump shouldn't be a surprise.

These pollsters don't know what they are doing anymore. Nobody answers their phone for telepollers except leftists apparently.

My fear is that the pollsters are right this time, and we are well on our way to becoming the north American Venezuela.

Michigan wanted something different so they elected Trump and more Republicans as a hope that maybe they can change things up as they have had struggles as a state for quite a while. So far no real major changes have occurred on a positive level and they are now fearful for the present and immediate future because of the trade war in an area that largely depends on as open as an economy as possible. I don't see Trump doing well there.. Will Wisconsin and PA act the same too? if so he's toast

If the average citizen embraces Socialism, we are finished as a country. It won't work with 330 Million people, a large, and growing ILLEGAL Alien population, and the corruption of our political CLASS (career politicians). What will happen is the elite will get what they want and the general populace will suffer greatly. That is why they want the law abiding citizen DISARMED.

Yeah. That's what we want.

Good lands. Such hyperbole, fear, and fear mongering in one post.

Don't worry, none of the Democratic candidates are actually socialists. Universal healthcare, affordable college educations, and a living wage are extensions of government programs we already have. Even if all of these things came to pass we would still be a mixed economy where capitalism is the largest player.
