A state Mondale won...

Trump was smart to wait until after the democrat convention to start to hammer creepy joe.

No way out for the marxists now.

Slow Joe won’t be able to keep up with Trump on the campaign trail.
Not even close. No matter where he goes.

Wasn’t Minnesota pretty close in ‘16? IIRC the President carried WI by a less than huge margin...don’t know how similar those two neighboring states are politically.

If Minnesota is a battleground, the war is almost won! Let’s finish this!

Biden will have to spend time and money defending states he figured were in the bag.

MN was very close in ‘16 but Minneapolis has many uber-liberal colleges cranking out boatloads of SJW.
Also the Democrats have ruled the local media since the 60’s and they are going to use it with all the resources they can find.

The big break was indications are that Trump may have captured the Iron Range part of MN.
Big old school Union area who probably like being back to work and bringing in regular paychecks.

President Trump won over the people in the Iron Range since the last election.

They have NEVER paid any attention to a Republican.

The suburbanites here are sick and tired of the increase in crime and the threat of the BurnLootMurder thugs coming out here to our safe areas.

I have a friend who lives a block from where Saint Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose. He says even the liberals there are tired of it.

President Trump can and will win Minnesota.

Very close, like 1 and half points.

It was close in 2000 and 2004 as well.

I’m sure if asked, they won’t admit it, but I can see several liberals getting into that private polling booth, looking around to see if anyone is watching, then voting for Trump.

Biden in a tough spot. Does he come out for or against the rioters. LOL.

They both had horrendous rioting this year.

“Trump was smart to wait until after the democrat convention to start to hammer creepy joe...No way out for the marxists now.”

Basically Ali’s Rope-a-Dope against Foreman, law low, but keep getting jabs into the body (and no one ever wanted to be on the receiving end of an Ali jab, back then). They worked, and by the time Ali felt like stepping things up, Foreman was simply of gas.

The democrats could just let him slip down a few flights of stairs. Have a big funeral shindig. Let Hillary attempt to bitch Big Mike to death in a cage match for the top spot. Who in the democrat party would really mourn old Joe? Who thinks either the Clintons or Obamas are above something like this?

Kamel Toe would try to claim rights to the nomination.

Put the three of them in the cage. If they’ve thrown in the towel on the debates already, I don’t think they can “ weekend at Bernie’s” Joe across the finish line.

Trump won the Iron Range in 2016. It’ll come down to the suburbs in MN.

OK, Minnesota is in play.

How is Florida looking?

Based on these polling numbers, work better be done there ASAP.

(Yes, polling can be off. But if a poll is consistent, at least the trend tells you something.)

Yep. Reagan kicked Mondale’s a$$.
49 State Win.
I doubt we will ever see that margin of victory again.
