45 is a stretch, in my opinion, but I think 40 is certainly doable.
The demographics were a lot different in 1972.
Throw out conventional wisdom for this election. The Democrats, NeverTrumpers and especially the media have no clue of the outrage of millions of Americans who are not Republican nor conservative, but are good, decent common sense thinking people who are sick of the crap the Democrats are spewing all over the place. While I won’t predict 45 states for the president I think he can win in some closely contested states in 2016 like Minnesota, Maine, New Hampshire, Virginia, and Colorado. I also think there will also be a heavy blue state or two in the president’s column next November.
Trump could not win VT, CT, MA, RI even if his Democratic opponent was Jack the Ripper—and that is just here in New England.
Ditto for CA, WA, OR on the West Coast.
Ditto for IL, NY, NJ, MD, DC.
That’s for sure. And that’s why the Rats are busy muddying the waters. But if they keep this chit up,who knows? Let’s pray.
But Pocahontas is arguably to the left of George McGovern.
And Hillary won a number of states by huge margins. Another Democrat will easily carry New York, California, Illinois, almost all New England states, etc. Trump may well chip away at the margin of victory in some states but Democrats will still win them.
Hillary won CA, HI, MD, MA, and VT by 25% or more of the vote. They remain out of play IMHO.
Hillary's margin was 10-25% in CT, DE, IL, one district in ME, NJ, NY, OR, RI, and WA.
A trend comparison with Nixon is hard because of the Wallace votes in 1968.
I think this is Trump engaging in psyops. But you never know.
The way things are progressing, it will most likely be at least 48 out of 57 States for Trump.
Just a bit of hyperbole from Mick. President Trump may well pick up a state or two, perhaps three and, may well increase his margin of victory in several but, no way he’ll win 45 states and Mick knows this.
Mick’s picked up on his bosses propensity to tweak the media.

Along with the 2nd Congressional District of Maine of course!
I don't see 45...or anything close.There are more than a few states that are *absolutely* lost.
Against Warren, Trump will win 33 states plus the one split vote in Maine for 326 electoral votes. He will easily win the national popular vote too despite massive numbers of fraudulent votes in CA, NY, IL, FL, etc.
To simplify, same states as 2016 plus flipping NH, MN, and NV.
How about winning 57 states?
I hope he does something about all of the vote fraud.
Soon.
“45 is a stretch, in my opinion, but I think 40 is certainly doable.”
Agree. 41 is doable, VA and/or NH. NM and/or NV.
No.
what about New Mexico? Any chance?
He could. But that’s fanciful. When the Dems get through stuffing ballot box, finding new ones in car trunks, or floating off shore and when the massive ballot harvesting is complete, DJT will be lucky to win 5. And that’s not to mention the equally massive Media campaign calling the election for the Dem before any voting ends in any state.
