If they get the turnout, which is a big ‘if’.
Also, if Walker gets picked as VP, we can win WI.
HA!!!!
Marking this thread for reference November 9.
“40 states? Never. Hillary starts off with 22 states @ 259 EV’s in the bag. I think only three states are truly “swing states” (MI, OH, FL). Hillary just needs one to win. Trump must get all three. “
Nope.
Trump will win CO (easily). Hillary = 250
Trump will win FL (easily). Hillary = 221
The battle will be in OH and PA.
And perhaps Trump steals CT.
“That probably means that Trump will choose Kasich.”
That would guarantee OH, help in PA and maybe VA.
btw I don’t like Kasich, he’s a rino putz.
“Ah, the first Hillary shill has openly arrived on Free Republic.”
Well a Reagan like victory would be nice. But I don’t see that happening.
I just want to see the Democrats rejected and repudiated this November. I am working on overlooking my distrust of Trump and just focusing and massive rejection of Hillary.
Than being said, I don’t see Reagan style victory. The country is too polarized and divided for that. A Bush Sr like victory in ‘88 would be good, but I would settle for even a Bush Jr. like 2004 win.
“Which 0bama states do you see Trump taking from Hillary (besides possibly MI, FL and OH)?”
CT
I appreciated Trump mentioning we have stood by and watched ISIS persecute Christians in the middle east to the point of genocide and we should be ashamed of that as a country.
That was aimed straight at the Obama administration and Hillary. He got some applause when he said that.
I think you’ll be surprised. Almost all those states that are automatically put in the Democrat column do occasionally elect Republicans and Trump is the kind of Republican most of them elect when they do.
Trump-Clinton will be a wipeout.
I think MD is also in play. MD came out BIG for Trump, bigger than they needed to in the primary.
Ping!

That might be the case if Cruz is the nominee.
In fact, you could probably add 4-5 of those red states and another 50 or so EVs to the Hillary column.
Burned to the ground, and all graduates exiled to Attu.
That probably means that Trump will choose Kasich.
That would guarantee OH, help in PA and maybe VA.
btw I dont like Kasich, hes a rino putz.
On paper Kasich helps in Ohio and your reasoning is sound, but I believe Trump will have a female running mate. No guesses yet, but it blunts Hillary’s main asset, lessens the silly sexist line of attack on Trump, and it softens his image. This is the smart political play. Trump’s “America first” talk and his jobs talk put most of the rust belt in play. Just my .02
So you’re a Hillary fan as well as a Mike Trout fan?
I was thinking the same thing. At least we won’t be holding our nose to vote for the POTUS, but we will be holding our nose for the VP...That does not mean on President Trump’s next 4 years, he will have to choose Kasich.
“Be Nice to Hillary” Heaven forbid!!! Please Trump, do not fall for that trap.
Based on the number of Bernie stickers/signs/pins I've seen in my deep blue east SF Bay neighborhood, I'll guess that Trump will carry California.
So Trump can deliver a prepared speech. Who knew?
He needs some experts that can come to his support. Very presidential to have a big name surrogate take your side.
