So playing around with 270 to win I tried to narrow the states down to those who are most likely going to go Dem and those most likely to go GOP. Does this seem reasonable? http://www.270towin.com/maps/azZ8L In that scenario the Dems just need to win one of Ohio/Virginia/Florida/North Carolina to win. Which seems like an absolute gimmie.

Just so this won't be missed, quote:At a July 2012 campaign event, Walsh accused [Duckworth] of politicizing both her military service as a helicopter pilot and her Iraq War injuries which cost her both legs and the partial use of one arm. He said, "my God, that's all she talks about. Our true heroes, the men and women who served us, it's the last thing in the world they talk about." "Will you shut about your heroic sacrifice, it's just not fair!"

It's incredibly ironic that no matter what anti-Trump GOP establishment types try to attack him on and distance themselves from, it'll only backfire because Trump embodies everything the GOP really represents but doesn't own up to. It's a supreme example of self-delusion at its best/worst and they've painted themselves into this corner for decades now. There's a massive cognitive dissonance and divide between what people like David Brooks like to imagine the GOP is supposed to be (serious responsible government, stable and principled) and what the GOP is in reality (ie Trump).

The GOP is the party of "gently caress You, Got Mine", and Trump has just fully embraced the "gently caress You" part since he's already "Got His".
