Trump camp: We don't need Pennsylvania to win

By Rebecca Savransky

 

Donald Trump's campaign manager on Sunday said the Republican nominee doesn't need to win Pennsylvania to get to the White House.

"We have several different paths to victory," Kellyanne Conway said Sunday on ABC's "This Week."

Conway said Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton is doing a "whiplash-like tour" to fundraiser for her campaign and is ignoring the voters.

"I would point out the growing number of stories just this week about the Clinton campaign, how she's being told just prepare for a landslide.  Wait -- you know, run out the clock. Don't go talk to the voters."

She's "thinking, 'Hey, I've got this one. I can win through many different paths through electoral map,'" Conway said. 

"And we're taking every state seriously. We're looking at -- we're just making investments just this week with absentee ballot outreach, with ads in about 10, 11, 12 states. Pennsylvania is one of them."

Conway said the Trump campaign is taking the state of Pennsylvania "very seriously." Still, she acknowledged it has supported the Democratic nominee in the past several elections.

"But we also know that Mr. Trump's message from the beginning has been particularly resonant among a lot of the working," Conway said.

"A lot of the workers who feel like they've been left behind in this economy."

A CBS News Battleground Tracker poll released Sunday shows the Democratic nominee leading Trump by 8 points in Pennsylvania, 45 to 37 percent. The battleground state has 20 electoral votes.

According to the RealClearPolitics average of polls, Clinton is up over the GOP nominee by 6.5 points, 46.5 to 40 percent.

He needs PA, FL, OH and VA.  Without either he loses.  I'm not quite sure of the 'multiple paths to victory' that the article is referring to.  Several district boundaries have been redrawn in several states that favor the DEMS. In other words from the start, Republicans are at a disadvantage.

They should at least pretend they want to win

In the land of unicorns and rainbows, he picks up New York, Massachusetts, California, Oregon, and Washington, so that makes up for losing FL, PA, OH, and VA.  It's time to campaign in CT again!  And while we are at it, why not piss off Arizona?

The Republican Party needs strong and committed leaders, not weak people such as @JeffFlake, if it is going to stop illegal immigration.

He's going to win California and New York.

He should dedicate 100% of his resources there to make it happen.

Honest.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Nonsense.  Conway knows Trump can't win without PA.  Can't. Won't.    There is no formula that works for him without PA.

Since PA looks lost, she's blowing smoke to the base.

Probably why there are so few Trump campaign ads running on TV here in Western PA, compared to almost nonstop pro-Hillary ads.  Ronmney's camp ran few ads for him here in 2012.  Don't these guys want to win?

If Trump flips Michigan then Pennsylvania isn't needed.

If Trump sweeps the South then Pennsylvania isn't needed.

Trump isn't a wimp like Romney, he'll get it done.
