That’s not the point. You can’t win an election (in swing states) with just Republican votes. You need independents. And you need new voters.

In 2016, Trump won a surprising number of independent voters in the suburbs of the swing states. Those same voters right now are very lukewarm. Now maybe most of those voters will ultimately come back. But right now, they are not solid. They are going to need convincing. Trump also won 53% of white women in these states. He doesn’t have that right now. He’s got to find a way to get those women back.

If you think Trump’s re-election is in the bag, then you are making the same mistake Hillary made in 2016. Democrats are turning out in very heavy numbers in their strongholds. This is not going to be an easy election.
