Florida conservatives say they don’t trust poll numbers: ‘They didn’t think Trump would win the first time’
"President Trump officially launched his 2020 campaign this week in Orlando in front of tens of thousands of his supporters at the Amway Center. Conservatives of all ages came out in the rain to express excitement for the president and praise the strong economy and his accomplishments on foreign affairs during his first two and a half years in office".

‘They didn’t think Trump would win the first time? The polls were of the popular vote. Clinton won it by millions. No one polled the Electoral College.
The polling forecast that Clinton would have 2-3 percent more votes than trump. That's what happened. In 2018, the polling forecast that Dems would win big in Congress. That's what happened. Polling is based on statistics, which is math and science. Trust the science.
The 2016 pre-election polls predicted Trump would lose the popular vote, AND HE DID. The polls were correct, By a landslide.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_United_States_presidential_election_in_California
The 2016 United States presidential election in California of November 8, 2016, was won by Democrat Hillary Clinton with a 61.7% majority of the popular vote over Republican Donald Trump. California's 55 electoral votes were assigned to Clinton.
The Democrats can only get so many electoral votes from California or any other state that awards all the electoral votes to the winning candidate in the state. California could have a 100% democratic vote but would still get the same number of electoral votes. The electoral college gives the rest of us in other states a chance to make our votes actually count even though we have a much smaller population. If it was by popular vote, probably 6 or 8 states would control the Presidential election because of their large populations and strong Democrat support.
Well, this is what I believe will happen. The American voter isn't stupid. But, on the other hand, you have people that if they knew that a vote for a Republican meant certain death, they would vote Republican anyway. They are that extream. There are a few still floating around out there of Trump's base that doesn't care about all the lies and deceit. Some don't care about the fact that Trump used the Russians, and will clearly do it again to get in office.
But, another way to think about it. Clinton did win by something over 3 million votes. The people clearly wanted a Democrat 4 years ago. The people were left to feel like their vote didn't count. That's why there was such a public outcry about it.
There was such a stink stirred over it by the public at large, it's just not going to be that way the next time. You can research this yourself. Trump made it by such a narrow margin, It was just dumb luck the margin was so narrow. I don't believe it will happen again. Especially with what we already know about Trump and the obstruction case slowly building against him. The Democrats are taking their time building this case.
And there is a method to that madness. I'm kinda looking for them to come out with everything they know just before the election. I don't understand their reasoning for this at this point. They have a mound of evidence on him now. But they are holding on. I think they know he stands a pretty good chance of being beaten most likely by Biden. Maybe they would rather let him be voted out.
I don't know, I'm guessing on that one. All I do know, Trump is hurting himself by telling others to defy subpoenas. Which makes his whole cabinet look corrupt and guilty. We will eventually see what the Democrats have planned for Trump. But right now, it looks like they are letting him hang himself.
How Many People Will Be Killed?': Why Trump Decided Against Striking Iran
"The planes were ready—their deadly cargo poised for delivery within a half-hour.
President Donald Trump had been given a series of options Thursday night on how to respond to Iran’s downing of an unmanned American surveillance drone. Senior military advisers zeroed in on a plan to launch strikes on a trio of sites within Iran, and it was up to Trump to give the final go-ahead".

This is just a show for Trump. When they created this mission they would’ve advised how many casualties. He’s just acting like in the last minute he stepped in to save the day. Makes the United States look impulsive and indecisive. Where’s his red line now?
Since Trump has been in office he's done a lot of dumb and corrupt shyt. But this came close to being the dumbest so far. Iran isn't a country you take lightly. It's not one you if you're in your right mind, want to fu$# with. He came pretty close to starting WW3. He is so dumb and sick with power that he thinks he can order a strike on Iran and all they will do is sit there and take it.
Iran has the ability to hit back. And to hit HARD!. And they don't care how many die. It bothers them ZERO. They have the ability to blow many of our states off the map. They have the ability to kill way more than 150 Americans with just one bomb. Even Trumps beloved state news (Fox) has reported on this.
Inside Iran’s deadly armory and its capabilities to fight the US
"In the hours after Iran is said to have downed a $125 million U.S. surveillance drone over international waters with a surface-to-air missile, despite Tehran’s vehement denials, President Trump gave the green light to retaliatory military strikes before later ordering a halt amid the alarming spike in tensions.
The inflammatory incident – which comes on the heels of escalating rhetoric between Washington and Tehran and other apparent sabotage vessel attacks – has many U.S. lawmakers and officials still fearing that some form of a military confrontation may be inevitable. But just how capable is Iran when it comes to fighting back and what lurks inside the country's shadowy arms arsenal and how is the Iranian military structured?".

This is one of the things that makes me believe he might be trying to start a war. Because he knows that he can stay in office if he starts a war big enough. And WW3 with bombs falling on our mainland would be just the ticket. Screwing around with Iran is crazy. Just another pointless war. That could go terribly for the USA.
Trump Hits Pause On ICE Plan To Raid Homes Of Undocumented Families
"President Donald Trump announced Saturday over Twitter that he will delay for two weeks a plan that would deploy Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to raid the homes of undocumented immigrants in several major U.S. cities.
The delay, Trump claimed, will allow time for Republicans and Democrats to reach a consensus on how to manage the number of people attempting to cross the southern border and request asylum".

Nadler: Hope Hicks testimony is a huge gift in a legal battle with Trump
"House Democrats are planning to file a lawsuit within days to force former White House counsel Don McGahn to testify on Capitol Hill — and they say Hope Hicks’ reluctant testimony Wednesday will help deliver them a crucial win in court.
Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler said Hicks’ blanket refusal to tell lawmakers about her tenure in the West Wing is the real-life illustration Democrats needed to show a judge just how extreme the White House’s blockade on witness testimony has become".
