Can Trump Really Win in 2024?
The American Spectator ^ | December 17, 2023 | David Catron

Posted on 12/18/2023 10:01:09 AM PST by freddy005

It has long been obvious that the Democrats badly want Donald Trump to be the Republican presidential nominee in 2024. This may seem counterintuitive in light of a recent spate of polls showing the former president leading Joe Biden, but this is primarily an artifact of the latter’s weakness. The most reliable polls show Trump bumping up against a ceiling of about 47 percent of the popular vote, which is consistent with his performance in the last two elections. Moreover, in order to win in the Electoral College, he must recapture several swing states Biden narrowly won in 2020 — and that will be more difficult in 2024 than it was in 2016 due to the metastasis of mail-in voting.

The RealClearPolitics average shows Trump leading Biden in general election polls by 3.5 percent. It’s not enough. In 2020, Biden was able to avoid a 269-269 tie in the Electoral College by a mere 42,918 votes in three states (10,457 in Arizona, 11,779 in Georgia and 20,682 in Wisconsin). Trump won these states in 2016 and is now outpolling Biden in all of them. In a new Bloomberg/Morning Consult poll, for example, “President Joe Biden trails former President Donald Trump in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and — for the first time since tracking began in October — Michigan.” This sounds bad for Biden, but few of these states have viable systems for ensuring the security of mail-in ballots. A new poll conducted for the Heartland Institute by Rasmussen Reports illustrates why this matters:

I completely agree with this article! The fact that the Republicans are NOT even talking about how to confront the mail in scam is disheartening to say the least. Imagine all the time, money and energy being spent on these primaries and instead they (R) should have put every resource to generate and harvest ballots (even from the grave) just like the Democrats! There is NO plan in place so expect a repeat of 2020 unfortunately…..

Trump can and will win if bone fide votes are accurately tabulated.

It’s not who (or how many) votes that matters. It’s who counts the votes that matter.

He’ll win, but won’t be allowed to claim the win, like in 2020.

Prevent the 2020 fraud in those key electoral college states and he wins hands down.

Can Trump win in 2024? Absolutely, just as he won in 2016 and 2020.

Will the DS ever allow him to be certified as the winner? Absolutely not.

With the two or three felony convictions he's sure to receive before next summer it's easy to imagine the Rat Party's ads.

"See,we were right.He's completely evil and is now facing 20 years in Federal prison.Vote Biden".

The Rat Party's despicable "lawfare" strategy is being masterfully played and will surely cost him some support,particularly in swing states.It's even possible that the Rats won't need to cheat this time.

Unless the vote was overwhelmingly in favor of Trump, I don’t think he can win.

“Can Trump Really Win in 2024?”

Win the election or become president?

I hate to say it, but you’re probably right. The Deep State has a whole bag of tricks available, everything from voter fraud to things I don’t even want to think about.

No matter. We’ve got to give it a go anyway. There is no other option.

The vote fraud really has to be done only in a few districts within a handful of states. You can bet that the machinery is all set up, and they won't care how blatant the steal is, because nothing will be done about it before, during, or after the election.

The question is more appropriately asked as one of the following:

“Will the deep state actually allow Trump to win in 2024?”
or
“How much ahead in the polls does Trump have to win by in order to not have the election stolen again?”

Of course Trump CAN win in 2024. The question is will he win.

I think he does win. There will be enough valid votes to overcome the fraud.

Of course he can win. That's not even a question. He'll get more legal votes than any candidate in the history of the United States. The real question is ... when the vote-counters refuse him a legal tally, are you ready for the second revolutionary war?

This is true for any GOP contender. Therefore, you go with the best horse in the race and don't let your political enemies choose your nominee!

What do I care if the rats steal it from Trump again? November is smack dab in the middle of football season, AND, the baseball World Series could be taking place too.

Democrats have been stealing from America and grabbing power since the 1950s under the banner of “civil rights,” race-mongering and white guilt.

The whole mail-in voting push in 2020 was all of that, in overdrive.

I sense a part of America is tired of it, and ready to push back - but its still a very useful tool for the deep-state/Left and it will be brought back in 2024 in a big way.
