I remember 1980 quite well. What I remember most is everything the left said bad about Reagan, every argument they used against him, they are now saying about Trump.
And Election night in 1980 was what I called “The Night of the Long Knives.” It was a political purge. I stayed up until the wee hours, long after my disappointed liberal roommates went to bed, gleefully watching as one leftwing democrat icon after another went into the dustbin of history.
You want to know how Trump is winning?
NY has Clinton up by over 20 points and they are calling the state solidly blue. Meanwhile Clinton is running ads there. Trump is the native NY’er who has built the city, employed thousands and truly loves NY. Hillary is a carpetbagger who moved to NY to steal a senate seat and then told NY that with her in the senate NY will gain 200,000 jobs. Which never materialized.
The minute Trump decides to run ads in NY, the election is over.
