A couple of things:
1) IBD was WRONG, just less wrong than the rest. The 2% pop margin they called wss 2% off. Trump lost the pop vote.
2) BUILD THE WALL. The SINGLE biggest promise he made must be kept quickly. This, even above economic stuff (longer, harder to do) will separate him from all recent counterparts.
3) Without at all violating his defense commitment, he can withdraw troops from Europe and Korea and gain immediate savings.
The PPD poll had the closest spread - .06 difference between the candidates.
.....the Center for Responsive Politics reports Clinton pocketed $22 million in contributions from the wealthy/liberal entertainment industry, compared to a mere $290,000 for Trump...
Take a look at the map of what Clinton won....the top 10 populations centers where most of the wealth, commerce and power is located.....and a couple of SW states that have a huge influx of Mexican immigrants.
Hillary lost the bulk of America.
Just goes to prove....the liberal rich talk only amongst themselves and their hired Mexican help.
I suspect IBD was right at 2%...but they didn’t factor in rampant fraud that boosted Hillary’s numbers.
I agree with all your points, especially #3. You are the first person I have seen that gets that. I have been thinking that for awhile.
