C'mon. "Landslide?"

I get that the idea is to see everything in polarized black and white, but can we step back from the edge a little.


well, genius, a "landslide" is usually defined as 10%. President Trump won the electoral vote by over 14%, nearly a landslide and a half.

Ten percent of the popular vote, maybe, but electoral vote margins are usually greater than that. Very few elections had less than a ten percent margin in the electoral vote.
