To be fair, Trump has to thread the needle here. He isn't even the popular vote and is strongly disliked. He has little margin for error. But the pathway is there for sure.
November is going to be a bloodbath

- Start date
The streets will be littered with MAGA body parts from the US military and National Guard units protecting our government.
Let's hope you're with them...
Do you think GOP state legislatures won’t name their own electors? And do you trust this SCOTUS to do the right thing?
States legislatures do have considerable discretion in naming their electors. They decide who is a real elector and who is a fake. It will be ugly.
This.
The lack of imagination and variation in American voting trends can only be compared, fairly at that, to a Brian Ferentz offense.
Biden vs. Trump II cannot be the best America comes up with it. It just can’t.
I haven't seen Democrat arrogance re: 2024 election at any material level. Fear, anxiety, despair, incredulity, etc. all significantly more prevalent. Trump is very likely to lose the popular election for the third straight election. He absolutely has a path via Electoral College. These are objective truths.
Trump's best hope is the political pendulum is ready to swing back slightly in his favor due to Biden fatigue, and that marginal swing could be juuuust enough to push him over the top in the battleground states.
And if that happens, the pendulum will swing mightily back to the Dems in 2028. And so it goes.
I'm just speechless, I feel like I'm living my life in a fever induced dream.
Just watch, Biden's health will take a turn just before the General Election and then he passes away a few days later. Then the nightmare becomes far too real.
We've become a democracy that's just out wandering around in the wilderness aimlessly.
Then who recognizes them for the count. Congress correct. Do u think Johnson can keep all 218 or whatever he has in line? It will be interesting if they go that path. A clear majority of people want accept it.
There is nothing that Constitutionally allows them to do this (US Constitution, or State Constitutions).
They can certainly try it (like this last election) and risk jail time for it.
I agree he sounds intelligent and articulate. But then there is the whole California thing
I’m not sure what you mean. CA is is still the richest state in the country. It’s also a mammoth. It has problems just like every state in the union has. Are CA ‘s problems greater? I’m not sure but I do know their problems get broadcasted to the rest of the country at a greater amount than the problems in other states.
The arrogance by the DNC is not running a primary and allowing a man that is obviously not fit for office to run unopposed. I guess Joe did call dibs 3 years ago....
The arrogance is in thinking they can simply appoint Hillary....I mean Joe....and the voters are obligated to vote for him
The arrogance is Joe not even campaigning
By the way do you really belive 50k people in New Hampshire organically showed up and wrote in Bidens name? Does anyone really believe this?
Yeeesh, not worth saying any more.
Here is a recent NYT oped:
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/22/...ytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
The scenario we see as the most alarming was made possible by the Supreme Court itself. In a 2020 decision, the court held, in our reading, that state legislatures have the power to direct electors on how to cast their electoral votes. And this opens the door to what we think is the most dangerous strategy: that a legislature would pass a law that directs electors to vote for the candidate the legislature picks.
The normal Germans thought the Weimar Republic had rules that would keep the Nazis out of power. How'd that turn out?
Stupid electoral college. Boy did the Union screw up after the Civil War.
Sad because Biden has accomplished a shit ton and nobody not on the left gives him any credit. It’s the economy stupid! Not for Joe. Low unemployment! Not for Joe. Infrastructure! Not for Joe. We are dumb AF.
Yes, but then again Im not a conspiracy idiot.
I agree that Biden is arrogant and the DNC is enabling him, but there's no reason to think anything was fabricated with the vote in 2024.
A little over 27,500 people wrote-in LBJ back in 1968, so there's history for this type of thing.
Also, there was no "organically showed up". A group of New Hampshire and national Democrats promoted the write-in campaign for weeks.
Im with @artradley on this one. Yes, sure, each state is supposed to follow the existing procedures and policies. But I expect some states to drag feet and find ways to at least delay certification once they see which way this is headed. Meanwhile he will be in front of any camera hollerin' about fake voters and that losing is inconceivable. If anything should be learned about recent history, each state that is heavily red will ignore standards they don't agree with to get the end result the states' GOP wants. If you don't expect them to try something and at least delay, you are fooling yourself.
What they are allowed to do vs what they do have been diverging. It's a good time to be in election law!
Most of the military including the guard are MAGA. Don't count your chickens before they get hatched.
3.3% Q4 growth now.
When all the MAGA/Fox economists were telling us a recession was in play...
Joe's a dementia ridden loser who gets mentally and physically weaker by the day.
Be truthful with yourself he has zero chance in November.
Polls? Biden hasn't even started campaigning yet. All they have to do is put commercial after commercial out there of the stupid things Trump does and says.
Which guy has a legit chance of going to jail in 2025? Rhymes with dump.
🙄
Yeah, comparing to the middle of a pandemic is fair research.
You are a dunce.
according to the idiots, you cant point to the loss of jobs under trump and the increase of job numbers under biden…but boy howdy, they love to compare gas prices during those times
