Hillary was supposed to have won in a landslide too, Ben, until she didn’t.

With all of the MSM propaganda and slanting of the news in Hillarys favor, I actually thought that she had won and was dreading life under Hillary.

Then it happened and in spite all of the MSM effort, Trump won.

So their wish and hoping and hoping and wishing didn't pan out for Hillary and their track record for predictions is very poor.

I suspect that Senator Sasse is correct. PA was close. During the campaign Wilkes-Barre and Scranton (as an example) were a sea of Trump signs. That's high-density Biden territory. In OH, a lot of the towns around here that went, some overwhelmingly, for Trump, were Kucinich territory before the district was shattered into tiny pieces. They would've stayed with Biden. hillary alienated a lot of that population with her obscene pandering to inner city blacks. Then there's the Amish, police/security, mining in MI, OH, WV, PA. Biden's message to them was not as hostile as is hillary's.

Winning all those states created the massive victory. We do ourselves a disservice if we don't recognize that hillary is a major reason that Trump won. Why? A sane dem (there are some) could get that vote back.
