Trump’s approval rating plummets in three key states
- Thread starter Tony Stark
- Start date
Isn't it interesting how republicans act when they lose vs democrats? For us it's just "*sigh* Well...maybe we'll win in 2016..."
For democrats it's "OMG HITLER WON! REEEEEEEEE!!!! WE ALL GONNA DIE! HE GONNA PUT IMMIGRANTS AND BLACKS IN DEATH CAMPS!"
But like I said...keep believing those polls. The same ones that said Hillary had a 98.1% chance of winning. The same ones that said Trump was going to get less than 200 EV's.
Don't look at indicators like the fact that the GOP has raised twice as much for the next election as the Dems. Remember that Trump won spending 1/2 of what hillary spent. What do you think is going to happen when he spends TWICE what democrats spend?
History has shown that at least 90% of the time, the person who spends the most on their campaign wins. I believe there have only been two candidates that spent more and still lost and Hillary Clinton was a part of both of them. Her run and Goldwaters run.
There are two conflicting trends here. One, Trump has badly disappointed his supporters. Two, he is still better than anyone remotely conceivable as an alternative. The problem is Trump fatigue syndrome may convince many whites not to bother to vote. He got a massive turnout from white working class voters, but four years of Javanka may turn them off.
Thats midterms,he wont raise twice as much as the democrat in the presidential election.
Obama and Bush both around 50% on re election day
The 3 guys who didn't win re election had 37 and 38 approval ratings 2 months prior to election day and Ford was at 45% 6 months prior to his re election. Trump is currently at 35% and has never been above 50 %
And with all that republican enthusiasm after 8 years of Obama hatred and massive turnout from white working class voters Trump got 3 million fewer votes and only won the EC by 78,000 votes .
And yet he is the President.
Never said otherwise.2020 democrats will have the enthusiasm on their side though and this is how we do it when that happens

You keep whining about the number of votes, like it means anything. All three people in your picture were President. The difference in votes is completely and totally irrelevant to anyone but you and a few other people who still cannot seem to get over last election.
