As a non-american I just read a few "who won the debate" news publications and I was amazed to see that fox news and other right wing news outlets are actually still claiming that he won by a lot. I thought they'd at least be slightly cautious and go for a "slim victory" or whatever since to me his run was abyssimal. You guys are so hosed up and it really is baffling that Trump is still relatively close to a potential victory. It's simply insane how rigid are party lines are. It feels like you could litteraly have a pig with a red ribbon run for president and he would get at least 40% of the votes.

boner confessor posted:trump is not close to an electoral victory. the popular vote doesn't really matter if you look at it nationwide, you have to look at it state by state in the context of the electoral college and trump's chances are practically nonexistent by now. you have a better chance of being hit by lightning than trump does of winning the presidency What I meant is that he still has a massive amount of voters behind him. It's not like 15% of people think he's a good candidate, from what I understand you have at least 40% of the voting people that will check the box next to his name. that may be "far from electoral victory" but that still means that a huge %age of your population, not just a fringe, is actually endorsing him and what he says. The fact that he hasn't lost at least 50% of the people who would generally vote for the GOP is absolutely insane. Also, the fact that voter turnout with people who don't like him not being thrilled with Hillary could potentially cause quite a surprise
