President Trump could win. Or he could lose. By no means does anyone know for sure. I base this uncertainty on six dimensions.
Dimension 1: Immigration
Democrats clearly seem to be implying: Let all illegal immigrants into the United States. Then give them free health care, including the 11 million illegal immigrants presently in the country. Costs to taxpayers would be beyond staggering. Trump, as we all know, opposes such actions. We can assume the public is divided. The unknown is: No one can divine the answer.
Dimension 2: Trumps supporters Hillary Clinton found out the hard way that it was political suicide to attack Trumps supporters by calling them deplorables. Such an insult mobilized a reactionary backlash in spades. Yet all the time we hear of people being chastised simply for wearing a MAGA hat. Thats an attack on the voters themselvesnever a wise idea.
Caitlin Flanagan made this same point in the May 2017 issue of The Atlantic, a left-leaning cerebral magazine. She knew better, and her title said it all: How Late-night Comedy Fueled the Rise of Trump.

“This will be a Ronald Reagan type of crushing landslide”
indeed. practically every political aspect is strongly lining up in that direction ...
sadly it seems more and more don't remember the past either
yup..
he has failed badly on the budget. He didn’t even put up a fight.
every president kicks the budget down the road.
Sadly so many Republican voters just ignore your wise words.
Well, he could win or lose; we can’t be sure of what the American people are thinking. But anti-Trump is a powerful force.
Trump sure talked tough about it though.
But yes, eventually though..
That can is going to explode like no explosion we have ever witnessed before.
then it’s game over and it all falls apart.
I’m 73 in DEC and I told my kids about this. One out of 4 pays attention.
I’m not worried over a Second Term; I AM worried that he will continue to be handcuffed by a democrat (OK, Socialist) House of Representatives. How many seats are we currently down, and how many other ‘republicans’ have already announced retirement?
Donald J. Trump is good, but not Superman,
And NO democrat congress will let him become a de-facto benevolent dictator a-la Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore...even if that is what the USA will need.
Well, Magic 8 Ball, could he win?
Sounds like “I don’t think so but I doubt it’’.
Has anyone blamed the NRA yet?
Im sure. This is 72 or 84 all over.
No, they said Hillary was a shoo-in and there’s no way Donald Trump will ever be elected President of the United States.
Yeah, that reminds of the passage where Moses said 3,500 years ago that I should buy an ipad.
Nothing.
Trump put together the Pence-Kobach "Voting Commission", but it was a total farce.
Democrat controlled states simply refused to turn over their voting rolls and data, so the commission folded like a cheap tent and went home.
In the 2018 mid-terms, vote fraud was real. Again, nothing was done.
Well, he was right about Hoover through Obama. He could get it wrong I suppose.
Voter fraud is the only thing that will keep Trump from being re-elected.
They have consistently voted 75%-80% for the Democratic Party for decades.
Trump will need 60% of the white vote just to be competitive.
Trump got only 57% of the white vote in 2016.
Turn out is the key - if the Democrats get their core voters to the polls in FL, WI, MI, and PA, Trump will lose
The same thing we have done about voter fraud since Nixon-Kennedy in 1960....
Bupkis!
