People tend to vote with their wallets and as long as the economy stays strong and unemployment is at record lows, there is no way anyone from the radical left wins in 2020.

All this yammering about socialism, open borders, free healthcare for illegals, free education (paid for by the taxpayers), and generally giving away the farm by raising taxes is going to scare away enough voters that the radical socialist Democratic party doesn't stand a chance.


Your party is basically run by AOC, the lunatic leftist that makes a fool out of herself on a daily basis. You have a clown car of candidate wannabees that is so far to the left (even Creepy Uncle Joe) that they all may just fall off a cliff.

Stop.

Just look in the mirror.

That is all.

Something they are saying is something I've been noticing. It doesn't matter who the Democratic candidate is. Most everyone I know is planning to vote for the Democratic candidate no matter who it is.

"She acknowledged the Democratic candidate has not been chosen yet, but argued it is not incredibly important who the nominee is."

If Vladimir Putin assists like he did in the 2016 Presidential election, Donald Trump will be re-selected in 2020 by Putin! Just ask Jimmy Carter.

So it's not like the voting public is clamoring for the "liberal" candidate either.
Moving the goalposts? I never said they all received a majority, only that more people showed up to vote for the liberal candidate than the conservative candidate.

Even so, notice how you tried to move the goalposts from "more predominant than they really are" to "more predominant among the voting public" to try to make your point.
I was simply using elections as a measurement that is on record. How else do you suggest we find out whether conservative or liberal views are more predominant? Someone's hunch? I'm not even saying liberal views are far more predominant, but when they won by almost 5 million and 10 million votes in 2008 and 2012, its not unreasonable to think so. Imagine if conservatives win in 2020 by 5 million or more votes. You don't think they'd run victory laps proclaiming how solidly conservative America is?

Btw, I was one of the 5.7% that voted for president in 2016 and didn't vote for Trump or Hillary.

This speaks for itself. America is no longer listening to the anti-Trump media, the idiotic pollsters and the full of hate Democrats.

that prediction is simply medication to soothe the pain of terminal TDS which has afflicted so many dems and never trumpers.


the propaganda machine continues to reflect back the democrat socialist fantasies which the democrats now actually believe. stuck in a bubble, they cling to their polls and their little blue lawn signs.


We already were shown how it was mathematically impossible for Trump to win in 2016.


Trump is a phenom for which pollsters have not figured out how to predict.

In addition, someone needs to tell the Never-Trumpers to change their name.

I believe he won’t win Pennsylvania or Michigan however I expect those losses will be narrow if the situations economically is similar to now and he will win Wisconsin and pull off two surprises. Those may two of the following MN, VA, OR, NM, NH, NV. I would list OR and NV as the biggest longshots of the bunch for sure
