I believe that if he made two or three swings through the state, he could be competitive in California. By that I mean him showing up his two or three times, doing a couple of events each time. The buzz would serve him well, and I think it would serve the state well too.
As per usual, the wonderful political advisors have told him not to bother.
I think that is a big big mistake.
Sorry, it would be nice for Trump to have rallies in California but it makes no sense as far as the big prize is considered. He has to get to 270 electoral votes and California won’t be among them. Trump needs to concentrate his time in the following: 1) Florida; 2) Ohio; 3) Michigan; 4) Colorado; 5) Maine; 6) New Hampshire; 7) North Carolina; 8) Iowa; and 9) Nevada. And maybe a day or two in Wisconsin and Rhode Island, as a feint. He has to carry most of these states and has a very good chance in each; he has no chance of carrying California.
And Watts and Oakland.
If Trump has any hope in California we are looking at a historic landslide and it won’t matter where he makes appearances.
