Donald Trump is facing the prospect of a landslide loss
CNN ^ | June 25,2020 | Chris Cillizza

(CNN)A half dozen new swing-state polls released Thursday morning suggest that not only would President Donald Trump lose if the election were held today, he would lose in a landslide.

The surveys, conducted by The New York Times and Siena College, show Trump trailing former Vice President Joe Biden by double digits in Michigan (Biden +11), Wisconsin (Biden +11) and Pennsylvania (Biden+ 10) and by mid-single digits in North Carolina (Biden +9), Arizona (Biden +7) and Florida (Biden +6).

Trump won every one of those states in the 2016 election. Switch them from red to blue and you can quickly see just how bad hings look for Trump at the moment.

And, thanks to CNN's handy dandy "Road to 270" interactive electoral maps, we can do just that! Give Biden those six states -- Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Arizona and Florida -- and keep the rest of the 2020 map just as it was in 2016, and the Democratic nominee has 333 electoral votes to just 205 for Trump. That would be a larger Electoral College margin than President Barack Obama won with in his 2012 reelection.

But even that doesn't capture how dark things could get for Trump. Consider: * A Quinnipiac University poll in Ohio released Wednesday showed Biden at 46% to Trump's 45%. (A Fox News poll released in early June showed Biden at 47% to Trump's 45%). If Ohio went to Biden, he would be at 351 electoral votes. * A Des Moines Register poll earlier this month put Trump at 44% and Biden at 43% in Iowa. Give Biden Iowa and he's at 357 electoral votes.

Right. We cannot afford to think a Trump victory is some sort of done deal. There will be Democrat vote fraud and lies from the media such as have never been seen in this nation.

From the last I heard of Biden, I think he is ready to top Clint Eastwood debating an empty chair...

Joe Biden will debate Joe Biden however many times it will take.

IF JB doesn’t show up for the PDJT debates, PDJT should just present an hour or so of Biden gaffes.

They don’t even have to edit and will have plenty to choose from.

After each gaffe, PDJT can explain what JB was trying to say..BUT PDJT has to be careful as JB probably had plagiarized much of what he said and ‘they’ will flip that on the Prez SO maybe better let JB ‘speak’ for himself.

Unfortunately, 2016 was just a practice run on how much corruption and cheating is needed for the Rats to win.

This is going to be a definite broken glass election.

FR always thinks that most of the country thinks like them.

If the Republican doesn’t win, it is cheating. After a while, it gets tiresome. There is too much motivated opinion. It isn’t the evidence that matters, it is what we want to happen.

Everyone needs to face facts. The far left has taken over entire cities with violence and no one is standing up to them. Conservatives do not have the courage of their convictions.

Also, if Trump loses the election he will become as big a pariah as GWB is now. He might be better than Biden but everyone here treats him like he is just below Jesus. It is disturbing that we all have to circle wagons and cannot question leaders just because they have the same agenda as us. Similarly, if someone has a different opinion than us then their motives are judged evil and intelligence low. That is the recipe for error and for becoming irrelevant.

I certainly hope the RNC has plenty of devastating political ads ready to roll. There is such a wealth of material to work with.

The key is to attack the Democratic Party as a whole, and not just focus on Biden.

Force Biden to defend the Radicals in the Party, and drive home that they will be running things, and not Biden.

If the RNC does that. It will be a rout from Trump.

It would be unforgivable if the RNC fails.

“Suburban moms. Trump is facing a humiliating rout in this demographic.”

Suburban women are not going to vote against the best interest of their families or the wishes of their husbands.

They will vote for Trump.

I think the election will be very close. Trump may lose.

White moms and college educated are leaving Trump and going liberal.

I can’t believe how many of my late 50’s in age fraternity brothers are bat shit liberal.

Huge amount of self loathing white guilt out there.

“Do you know anyone who voted for Trump in 2016 who will vote for Biden in 2020?”

Yes, many. Many just want a change.

You just said...absolutely nothing. What are "conservatives," who likely live somewhere else, supposed to do to "stand up" to rioters in Democrat-controlled cities? Go in there and shoot them?

If you said "GOP politicians do not have the courage of their convictions," you'd be a dann sight closer to the truth, but that just makes a vote for Trump the ONLY thing "conservatives" or any sane American can do to try and accomplish any push back.

So, instead of dumping carp on the "conservatives" here for not doing enough, if that's what your cryptic post was meant to assert, what's your plan? Donating to the GOP? Discussing politics with undecideds or leftist morons? Putting up yard signs and slapping on bumper stickers? Give me a break.
