Trump takes Florida
Don Surber Blog ^ | 10/27/2020 | Don Surber

Posted on 10/28/2020 11:11:54 AM PDT by MisterMagic

Josh Kraushaar of the National Journal seemed perplexed. He tweeted, "This makes no sense, unless you're out of cash: Trump campaign spending on Minnesota but pulling out of FLORIDA."

Don't be fooled.

He knows what this means. President Donald John Trump has nailed down Florida and he is moving to add Minnesota to his list of states. The crowds at his rallies and the Trumptillas of boats show the Sunshine State is backing its new snowbird turned homeboy.

Why was Trump in Omaha yesterday? Nebraska should be a lock.

There’s a section of Nebraska he wants...and it borders Iowa.

Nebraska awards 3 of its 5 electors by congressional district results, and District 2, which contains Omaha, barely went for Trump in 2016. So Trump is trying to shore up that particular vote.

If Donald Trump doesn’t win Florida, he will not win the election, it’s that simple...

Florida has 29 electoral votes, Minnesota has 10, if Trump is going to win the election, he’s not going to make up 29 electoral college votes if he loses Florida even if he wins Minnesota...

Nothing is ever a lock until the fat lady sings.

Trump said at a rally the other day that he was told to act like he was 1 point down.

That’s what he is doing. He’s not taking it for granted. He is fighting. And he will fight right up until the election.

The state is a lock but 2nd Congressional District (Omaha/Lincoln) is not a 100% lock so he was there for to shore up district for him and house.

The Trump campaign yesterday disavowed the report saying it was stopping advertising in FL.

“If Donald Trump doesn’t win Florida, he will not win the election, it’s that simple...”

He loses any of the swing states he got in 2016 and it’s gonna be a problem.

If President Trump were concerned about Florida, he would never pull out. He knows that he cannot win re-election without Florida. You would think that after four years as President (and decades in the public eye), the press would have figured out that Donald Trump is a fighter. If he thought that Florida was at risk, he wouldn’t quit, he would double down.

I’m hearing Trump ads in western Washington State!

Is Trump looking for a sweep?

Wisconsin and Minnesota each have 10 electoral college votes, he would lose Wisconsin and win Minnesota and nothing changes, but 29 is to much to overcome...he would have to win Colorado, Minnesota, New Hampshire and all of Maine to overcome that....which is really tough

Florida is going to experience a Hurricane. Ads are a waste.

CD 2 in NE is like CD 2 in ME. The other 4 EVs are good.

The President wants to win the popular vote.

Every vote everywhere counts!

No, it means the report that Trump stopped advertising in Florida was yet another leftist lie.

Don Surber has updated that blog entry:

UPDATE: Mini Mike's news service only told half the story. It failed to check with the campaign first, and had to correct itself.

The story now begins, "President Donald Trump’s campaign has slashed its advertising budget in Florida, relying on the Republican National Committee to carry the message there as it moves resources to the industrial northern states that carried him to victory in 2016."

No ads were pulled.
