Who is that Professor or math whiz who accurately predicted the past 5 elections? I forget his name, but Mark Levin the other day said the guy just predicted Trump will win 2020.

I think a key difference between now and 2016, is that Trump was a new candidate in 2016, and many had doubts about him.

This year, he’s running as the incumbent, on a record of some considerable achievements. The liberals hated him in 2016, and still hate him. But among ordinary Americans, he’s picked up support based on his record of achievements.

There aren’t too many people who voted for Trump in 2016, who will vote for Biden, in spite of the handful of such people we saw at the Democrat convention. On the other hand, some who voted Hillary or sat out 2016, will now vote Trump based on his record as President. I think there are more of the latter than the former.

The commie left thought that the riots would benefit THEM, to show “This is Trump’s America, if you elect us this will stop” but people saw through the BS, this is Biden’s America..and most sane people dont want this for their kids and grandkids

Look, all the BLM/Antifa protests cum riots have really turned off the voters from the Democrats.

This shows how ignorant the Brits are about American politics. If they knew anything they would know there is no way senile joe can win. Sorry to disappoint you pearl clutchers.

Past history shows that a strong stock market correlates well with reelection

Let the lying media is going to keep trying to use their fake Polls up until about October 25 and that’s when they’ll start giving you the real Polls

Our great and wonderful president Donald J Trump completely and utterly eviscerated the entire Democratic Party what they stand for which is communism and feeble and pathetic basement dwelling Joe Biden last night

In particular all of the black speakers that they had both elected politicians and just regular people who got up and told America the lies that the black community has been told for decades and decades and decades and repeating the recent phrase that Joe Biden used himself on air which was incredible “if you don’t vote for me you ain’t black” was stunning

The fact that a good majority of black folks are ignorant don’t watch television don’t listen to the radio and have no idea what’s going on the news means that the stupid socialist evil racist democratic party will still probably get a good majority of the votes but I think that any black American who paid any attention to any of this have to vote Republican and I’m gonna say he gets at least 25%

Now let’s switch gears did you notice during the convention there was almost no mention of the largest growing minority in America Hispanics?

My experience as a contractor in California is all of the hard-working Hispanic employees I’ve ever had are all Republicans

The biggest danger though to Trump losing is election fraud which the Marxists have made quite clear they will attempt through endless litigation and mail in ballots. This is why the multiple felon who is above the law, Hillary Clinton, told Joe the other day not to concede no matter what.

This is the guy Levin was talking about BTW.....

On the other hand I just found out about this guy who said the opposite.....

I think you’re thinking of Helmut Norpoth.

Lou Dobbs has had him on his show a couple times recently.

I kiddingly tell my 18 and 14 year old how close I am to the Donald. I mean he writes me a couple times a month, and he even sends me text.

They just roll their eyes at me. And I love it.

18 and 14 That’s nice :)

In the end it’s what life’s all about.

I am happy for you and that you can banter with them.

Few have that kind of relationship with their children anymore.
