Steve lays out some good reasons Trump will win. He was accurate 4 years ago that the US was ready for Trump in a short book; and was right then.
#10 — The polls are moving Trump’s way... fast
#9 — A strong majority say they are better off today than four years ago
#8 — The economy is surging and elections are about the economy... stupid
#7 — Most think Trump will win and think their neighbor is voting for Trump!
#6 — The rallies and the “lawnslide”... retail politics still matters
#5 — Trump has a clearer perception of self and country
#4 — The riots.
#3 — The Miracle of Middle East Peace
#2 — Black and Latino voters will save America
#1 — You!
He will win if more people show up and vote for him than the other guy.
Even if polls are accurate for the time they are taken, they can be made to be wrong if certain people decide to get off the couch and vote on election day. That has happened before...and it can happen again. Even with very high turnout numbers in 2016, there were still many millions of people who would have voted Republican if they had shown up to the polls who simply did not do so...the same for the other side. If these millions that would have voted for Republican who aren’t inclined to show up but ultimately decide to do so, solid victory - the vote of a lazy and unmotivated voter counts just as much as an enthusiastic voter. Most everyone knows people like this...get them to get off the couch and go vote.
Yep
NYT journo who grew up in Pennsylvania says the polls don’t match what he sees happening on the ground
You left out what I think will be a bigger factor than many of those you listed.
Women are going to break to Trump. In 2016 women were told that Trump was a terrible womanizer. His actions in office have not revealed that side at all. My wife has gone from being opposed to Trump, to being a strong supporter over this issue.
Women do not want the crazy lawless society of the left, they also want their kids to go back to school.
# 11 - Dems have been bunkering with Biden in the basement watching Fearporn and clutching...
Turnout for 2016 was 55.5% of the voting age population. It’s been 112 years since we had even 65%. The highest we have had for a long time was 2008 with 57.1%. The last time we have cracked 60% was 1968.
Voting turnout for 2020 would have been a good indicator for how many people are really worried about possible unrest and uncertain times coming. The covid/huge vote by mail/early voting probably messed that up.
The terrible thing is that if we would have higher turnout through the years I doubt things would be better now. I suspect we would actually be farther down the slope at this point.
Freegards
My top ten reasons why Trump can win:
Biden is half dead
Nobody can stand Harris
Democrats ruin everything they touch
Trump is awesome
Trump is already POTUS, why change?
Democrats are thieves and liars
Trump is awesome
Democrats suck
Trump will drain the swamp
Did I mention Trump is awesome?
#5 — Trump has a clearer perception of self and country
Not only that, he has a perception of the nation
that is one to be proud of. The democrats want YOU
to be ashamed of it and replace it with THEM.
America is NOT tarnished...America SHINES!
I’m just talking about the good guys who sit at home as well - and that’s a substantial number. If they would show up, we could dwarf the other side every election.
Really? Voting makes a difference?
I’m thinking that the media and billionaire democrats are manipulating the DJIA to keep it low. Those investors know how to manipulate it and make money, buying low and selling high. More or less, being day traders.
The day after Trump is reelected, it with have a significant rise, and it won’t be long before it goes over 30,000.
I’m no expert on stocks, but I do look at the DJIA several times every trading day to get an idea of which way my Roth 401K is going.
Biden has done nothign positive for this country in nearly 50 years in office
Biden will lock everyone down so that the remaining peopel that still have jobs will lose them
Then, Biden will tax the snot out of everyone
Then Biden will eliminate gas and oil so peopel freeze and boil in winter and summer and can’t get anywhere when the left finally deigns to let folks out
Then biden will increase more taxes, fines, regulations to ‘combat’ an issue that isn’t a problem- climate change
Then biden will attack second amendment rights
Then Biden will cower in his basement every time a foreign leader barks
Then ....
On and on it goes-
Noone in their right mind will ever vote for that kind of horrible candidate-
What remains to be seen is just how many people are left who are still in their right minds-
Will Americans say ‘gosh, Trump made America great again, but ya know? We’re just sick of winning- let’s back a loser this time who will ruin all the progress that has been made under Trump’s administration- and ya know? I’ve got just way too much money now- We really need some politician to take most of it away- let’s vote biden”
I don’t think so!
Wallstreet and folks with common sense are still the majority- Let’s just hope enough of them get out and vote, I think they will- people do not like changing horses midstream so to speak, and especially so when a president Like Donald has been so good for this country DESPITE overwhelming odds against him
I think people are going to way surprised to see how many Christians vote this time around.
I’ve been a pastor for a long time, and through the years have met countless people that wouldn’t vote, because the republican wasn’t good enough.
Since 2016, I’ve heard countless pastors and church members share their deep excitement for Trump.
That is where I think the true silent majority resides.
it’s funny how the left howled over Trump ‘talkin dirty’ to his locker room buddies- but totally ignore the fact that biden has done some truly disgusting and immoral things to women-
There was a reported who went to a college campus, and asked the students htere “
Who said hte following things”
He rattled off a bunch of despicable sayings, and facts, and the students they all got disgusted looks on their faces- wrinkled their noses, all said “Trump”? Disdainfully
The reporter didn’t say anything till they all answered,- then said-
Would it surprise you if I told you it was actually Biden?
They all looked shocked for a second, then said ‘Oh well, that’s just Joe being Joe” and they started in calling Trump a racist, xeniophobe etc- all the while dismissing the fact that biden was actually all the things they were falsely accusing TRump of being
#8 The economy is surging - is no longer valid. The DJIA lost over 1200 points in the last week, losing 900 points just today. This happens every time a Republican president is up for re-election. How’s that for a coinkydink? Almost as if it were planned. D’ya think?
Computer algorithmic trading should not be equated with the economy.
This market turned south on the news that Europe is experiencing a second wave of lockdowns and a hopeless stimulus bill that won’t see the light if day until long after the election.
Who expects the economy to recover and thrive if we continue to listen to Dr. Fauci’s “science” that says we can’t even celebrate Thanksgiving, as Joe Biden vows to do?
Common sense Voters know that this economy is being artificially held back because of irrational fears.
Between the two candidates, who is the one offering courage and hope, and who is the one telling us to expect a dark winter?
Absolutely agree!
Nice enumeration, enumerated...
