The polls in 2016 where popular vote was concerned were pretty much spot on.

538 had it 48/45 Clinton. The actual result was 48/46 Clinton.

gets worse and his failed actions on all fronts become more clear to all. His incompetence is killing Americans. It seems to me that letting him go after he loses in November (and finally out of office in Jan. 2021) is too easy. He should be charged w/ the military charge of Dereliction of duty, since he is the highest military official in the US. He should NOT be allowed to escape/go free. Any of his thugs that supported his idiotic actions during this crisis need to answer for their crimes against America.

It's all Electoral College. Yes, you need to run a national game, but the fight will be in the usual swing states.

Sixty percent of Americans say the economy is ‘poor’ — 67% of Americans called it ‘good’ in January

Lots of people were willing to overlook a lot of Trump shit as long as their "401Ks are going up!". Nothing like a strong swift kick in the ass that dislodges their wallets before they finally open their eyes.

Sad that people can be that selfish to the exclusion of all else but it is what it is.
