I’ve said it since the beginning, Trump is a republican who will absolutely destroy the Democrat firewall of the rustbelt and north east....
The only rust belt states she can remotely has a shot at are MN, IL and WI if the nevertrump poisoning was too great during the primary to overcome... at this point it looks like Hillary is so bad, that Trump likely will still wind up with WI, in spite of the fact the GOPe did its best to give it away. I don’t see her being competitive, let alone able to win any of the other rust belt states.
Trump will also take a lot of New England states that have been traditionally blue.
Pundits on both sides, just are not seeing what’s going on, and even if they are, just can’t or won’t let themselves, accept it.
Hillary has her convention bounce, if she gets one, and that’s it.. Trump hasn’t even really begun in earnest, and she’s got over 50 Million spent in states she can’t lose and she is even or losing in all of them... She’s toast.
I find it laughable when I hear pundits talk about OHIO and FL and other states as the Battleground... reality is, Trump will take them all handily, by October, Dems will be doing everything in their power just to try to hold onto places that none of these talking heads remotely can conceive will be in play.
