SR1328 – Prof. Clifford Thies Predicts “A Surprisingly Strong Win for Trump”
Still Report ^ | 11/7/2016 | Bill Still

Posted on 11/07/2016 1:10:09 PM PST by GilGil

As we come down to less than one day before the polls open, an interesting variety of truly non-partisan people are predicting a Trump win tomorrow.

One such person is Professor Clifford Thies, the Chair of Free Enterprise at Shenandoah University in Winchester, VA.

Dr. Thies has been in communication with me for several weeks. Initially he said that Trump has a tough road ahead, however, as the weeks have gone by, his optimism has increased and yesterday when I asked him for his final prediction, this was his response.

“A total across the boards victory for Republicans: A surprisingly strong win for Trump in terms of the electoral vote. He takes all of the Romney states. He wins Ohio and Iowa big. He holds North Carolina. “He wins Florida, New Hampshire and Nevada by a percent or two. And he wins two or more of the following five states because he outperforms the polls: CO, Michigan, NM, PA and VA.

“Possibly also one or more of: ME (at-large), MI, MN, NM, or WI. Net loss of zero Senate seats. Net loss of 12 or less House seats. Net gain of 3 Governors.”

Prof. Thies says that Trump’s late changes in itinerary is a “tell” to what’s going on inside the campaign: “Trump's change in his itinerary, in conjunction with the polling information available to the public, was a tell. It signaled that Trump's internal polling shows him that he has a real shot at stealing one or more of Minnesota, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Virginia from Hillary Clinton, but not much chance of stealing Wisconsin.”

Nov. 9th will greet President-elect Trump and Vice President-elect Pence. No doubt in my mind. Now we charge up the hill and take no prisoners and show no mercy!

A comfortable win, regardless of whether it counts as a landslide. The Liberal Media, including Murdoch News, will be shock, just as they were in 2004 when Bush's reelection didn't match their exit polling suggesting a Kerry landslide.

Trump STEALING?? How about the term dominating since stealing is so democrat speak. As well, how does the good prof calculate the level of vote fraud and election rigging that is in the queen of crime's favor based on the MSM's fraudulent/rigged polling results?

I did not read the full article but just want to ask: Is he factoring in the Clinton machine’s inevitable and sadly likely effective voting fraud?

Obama was begging for votes in Michigan and now Michael Moore and Jesse Jackson are having an emergency rally in Flint. Moore says Flint is a good example of how bad years of republican rule is....what?

If this is the guy I think it is and I’m sure it is, I saw him on Fox not too long ago. Really enjoyed listening to him.

Yes, the Dems in charge of Flint tried to blame the water crisis there on the Republican governor. Flint used to get its water from Detroit but, in an attempt to stave off yet another budgetary crisis, began pumping it out of the Flint River to save money. They kept doing so long after people complained about the taste, smell, and toxicity of the water.

He’s called every presidential correctly for the lady thirty years.

Other than that he’s a hack/s

I hope, wish and pray that he is right. I have several bottle of champagne in the fridge to celebrate when this obnoxious, corrupt and crooked sad piece of humanity loses.

On Wednesday morning, they’ll be shredding hard drives like crazy in the White House. Zero will formally declare war on the United States.

I know they were blaming the only republican they could find, but the way Moore puts it you’d think republicans have been in charge of it for years. Didn’t the the EPA also delay taking some action on the water troubles?

How long after Trump is declared the winner will it take Obama to green light the next Muzzie violence wave?
