legal or illegal doesn't matter. He hates all immigrants (except Melania of course, maybe even her). This hate resonates so well with the republican base that they chose him over Haley, Desantis, etc, who share similar policy but have nowhere near the baggage.

I would have thought Mar a Lago documents case would have been the final straw, but once again, I overestimated the republican base voters.

Inevitably, Trump will start bragging about his "little secret" to win the election before long. sop Nov 29 #5

I don't think his secret with Johnson was about the election. CincyDem Nov 29 #57

Don't think so. returnee Nov 29 #67

Right...but the house can create the circumstances that allow Trump to declare congress in recess. CincyDem Nov 29 #85

No offense, but there is no hard evidence that Trump won the Native American vote Wiz Imp Nov 29 #7

no. the precincts on the rez have known vote totals. mopinko Nov 29 #26

And you have all those numbers? How about showing them or at least linking to them? Wiz Imp Nov 29 #28

i wasnt arguing about how they voted, just pointing out that it's known. mopinko Nov 29 #49

But that was my point. Wiz Imp Nov 29 #52

So the evidence that he cheated is that he didn't get the same vote as other races EdmondDantes_ Nov 29 #24

Not that it's any consolation, but he didn't even get a majority of the popular vote. TheRickles Nov 29 #13

Trump's portion of the popular vote was only 49.83% NOT 49.97% Wiz Imp Nov 29 #46

Yes, his % continues to drift lower and lower as more votes come in. And while these links are helpful TheRickles Nov 29 #63

Trump would claim a landslide regardless. I'm pretty sure he declared a landslide in 2016 despite losing the PV Wiz Imp Nov 29 #64
