2018 mid terms suggest that isnt the case.
Looking like Warren will be the nominee, what do you think?
- Thread starter Banjo
- Start date
Trump only won MI,PA and WI by a combined 78000 votes
Democrats won the Senate races in Pennsylvania,Wisconsin,Michigan,Nevada,Virginia ,Minnesota ,Arizona and Ohio in2018,the states that will decide 2020.
2018 mid terms were waged with a great majority of senate seats being Democrat incumbents. This means that there was a lot more turnout in Dem states which necessarily would result in more Dem votes. --even with that, Mr Trump's off year elections results ranked in the top 5 of all mid terms since the beginning of the country.
Obama's record for allowing illegal immigration is legion.
Dems won The House by 10 million votes,the most ever
House Dems nearly matched Trumps vote total,something that has never happend in the history of this country.
Obama 2008-69 million
Gop 2010-45 million
Trump 2016-63 million
Dems 2018-61 million
illegal immigration is higher under Trump than Obama.Deportations were higher under Obama than Trump.Obama built more new miles of wall than Trump.
Again, there was an unusually high percentage of Democrat Senate incumbents on the ballot and so you would expect high turnout which also bleeds over to the House. You cannot look at midterms and glean anything from them which would pertain to a national election 2 years hence.

ICE claims more illegals were deported under Obama than Trump

Since he announced his candidacy, President Trump has repeatedly vowed to deport illegal aliens — including a promise last week to kick millions more out of the US — and to build a wall on the southern border.
But the feds say that Trump has fallen far short of President Barack Obama when it comes to deporting illegals even as the number of people caught at the border has soared on Trump’s watch, a new report said Friday.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement has deported more immigrants this fiscal year than any full fiscal year of Trump’s presidency, but has yet to come close to Obama’s early deportation record, according to new internal Department of Homeland Security figures published Friday by Axios.
Under the Obama administration, ICE deported more than 385,000 each year in fiscal years 2009 through 2011, and hit a high of 409,849 in fiscal 2012 — prompting critics to dub Trump’s predecessor “the deporter in chief.” The numbers then dropped to below 250,000 in fiscal years 2015 and 2016.
Under Trump, by comparison, ICE deportations dropped to 226,119 in fiscal 2017, then inched up to over 250,000 in fiscal 2018 and hit a Trump administration high of 282,242 this fiscal year, as of June, the website reported.
When as many people nearly voted for democrats that voted for Trump I would say that is incorrect.
