FWIW I am preparing myself for a Trump loss.
I believe the democrats were coasting in 2016. The media was coasting.
This time they will have the pedal to the metal.
Trump/Pence will do a very good job, but it may not be enough.
Postal Service, Election counters, Google-Facebook-Twitter.
I hope that I am wrong.
Nah, the media wasn't coasting in 2016.....they were telling us nonstop that Hillary's already won. Yes, Hillary dropped the ball in Wisconsin ... but they're not going to send Joe there -- and if they send KAmala, it'll cost them votes. The Biden campaign and the media have their hate pedal to the medal, but after four years Americans have developed a herd immunity against it. The only thing their hate does is strengthen the resolve of Trump supporters and push more voters onto the Trump train.
The one item that does concern me is the fraud, the universal mail-in theft. But the President is exposing this, going to court to stop it, fighting the Democrats on the Hill, presenting proof of the problems in every press conference... in short, he's doing everything in his power to keep this election honest. It would be nice if Republicans would support him on this, but I ask too much. But folks are awake, and this always works to our favor.
And there is a plus side ... those boat parades for Trump have exploded across the country. Hell, there was a large one in Delaware and even New Jersey this weekend. The one in Clearwater enters the Guinness Book of Records as the largest boat parade in history. Foot parades for Trump are occurring across the nation from Hawaii to Northern Virginia.
The extraordinary ground game for Trump 2020 is making itself known on the water, in the streets and knocking on doors. (Sometimes w/o masks
) The enthusiasm factor will matter more in this election than even 2016. And we win this, hands down. And by enthusiasm, I mean voter turnout.
Even though you won't see it on TV, the President and Vice President are also holding mini-rallies across the battleground states -- and both will be front and center at live and virtual events this week .... even buying enough ad time to dominate Al Gore's Internet. Brad Pascale earned his paycheck this week!
I especially enjoyed the NYCPBA's endorsement of the President on Friday ....
“I cannot remember when we've ever endorsed for the office of President of the United States, until now...â€

I'll leave with a reminder that one group of voters is gravitating toward the President and spitting over their shoulders at Biden AND KAmala (whose selection really hurt the Biden campaign). How this will affect the election is still unknown. But I take comfort in the Democrat's worry.
