Why Donald Trump could win again, by Dave Eggers

The president’s El Paso rally should have been a tricky affair, with the wall, the shutdown, a counter-rally by local Democrat star Beto O’Rourke. But it was a night of wild surprises

At the end of Trump rallies, order breaks down and people are tired. To those seeking to shock, injure, annoy or make a point, it’s go time. In El Paso, on the US’s southern border, at Trump’s first campaign-style rally of 2019, two people unfurled the flag of the Soviet Union.

This happened inside the El Paso County Coliseum. I was outside in the parking lot, with about seven thousand others, shivering in the frigid desert night. Inside, Trump was winding down his speech and people were leaving. Suddenly there was a commotion at the exit. A pair of young people wearing black were hurrying out of the building, holding the large Soviet flag, being chased by a pack – a posse – of cowboys. I have seen some curious things at Trump rallies, but none stranger than the sight of four cowboys running after two people carrying a giant red USSR flag, hammer and sickle and all, through a parking lot in El Paso.

He had better win again or the Republic loses.

By the time fall of 2020 gets here, Trump’s opponent will be so discouraged by the reality of Trump’s impending victory that it won’t seem worth it to even stay in the race.

Democrats should have gotten the message abandoning the white middle class worker was a mistake.

They instead doubled down on identity politics. Their calculation is whites are on their way to minority status and building a coalition of “oppressed” groups is the key to dominance.

[Hammerhead]

He WILL win.

Every day Americans see the job he is doing.

I quite believe that without voting reform i.e positive ID required to vote, voting at designated polling places only and on voting day only, the Democrats must win every national election from here on out. The Republicans could have reformed the voting system before November 2018. They cannot now and there will not be another chance. Democrat vote fraud was almost open in the last two elections and will be ramped up to multiples of anything previous because there is no penalty and the nation accepts the vote count even knowing it is fraudulent.Upwards of 20million legal and illegal aliens will vote complained about but unchallenged. If, somehow, the Republicans win the EC while losing the popular fraudulent vote count the Democrats and the permanent government will not accept the results and will refuse to allow the Republican to take office. Resist how we will, guns or other ways, the Republic is over. Whatever comes out the other side will not be the Republic and the Constitution will be a dead letter even as it is frantically "invoked" by all parties.

I pray you are 100% on target.

Trump’s opponent will be so discouraged by the reality of Trump’s impending victory that it won’t seem worth it to even stay in the race.

Nah, the pollsters will describe paths to victory, and even the loser gets at least a book deal, and possibly a TV gig out of it.

The entire world is praying he wins again.

Smolletting. It's all they've got.

Sadly, I agree with you. Voter fraud and the potential of illegal voting in selective areas around the U.S. is worrisome. The margin of error will be small just considering the LEGAL votes. The only way I can see it otherwise is if the Dems cannot find a popular challenger to Trump. If it’s a Biden, it might be closer, but if they go more radical, then they’ll get their clocks cleaned.

[ifinnegan]

Could?

[arthurus]

Every state that has aat least one large city with a Democrat city government will go Democrat in 2020. The Democrats know there is no penalty, not even much complaint, for cheating, even open cheating and they will vote illegals and multiples and will simply manufacture votes in all these cities sufficient to "carry" those states. It maybe worse if the Republicans should win the EC with the Democrat popular vote of 3-1 or 2-1 margins. The Democrats will not accept the EC count and neither will the Bureaus and Departments of the Federal Government. We will be in coup and counter-coup territory.

All the former Never Trumpers are now experts on Trump winning.

Same as stock experts, they NEVER document their track record because it shows they know nothing.
The talkers are know nothings and empty opinions.

This list of pro Trumpers before he ran was nearly empty.

Alex Jones
Matt Drudge
Breitbart

That is it. That is the list of real talk experts.
Small, ain’t it?

[TheNext]

VOTER ID FOR ALL

otherwise Fraud.

[marktwain]

The author is clueless.

He says the wall hasn't even been started yet.

He has no idea there are already 600 miles of the wall, or he is lying.

Probably lying.

[arthurus]

The chance for getting that went away when the Social Democrats won the last Election.

[Rapscallion]

Donald Trump WILL win again.

[jmaroneps37]

Gee Dave thanks much for telling us Trump could win
I wouldnt think that without you

[sergeantdave]

The article is worthwhile to read because the scribbler is flabbergasted that the Trump rally drew so many Latinos. He is clearly worried what that means for the imminent 2020 election. He also is worried that the Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke rally, held the same day in the same city, drew a piddling number of rats.

So contrary to what our resident gloom and doom weenies here on FR bleat, Trump has a great chance to win a second term.
