You forget that the dems didnt have an enthusiastic base and Clinton still won the popular vote. This last midterm elections was nothing compared to whats going to happen in 2020. You guys better start working on 2024.There is only a slight difference between the two sites, my point stands. An enthusiastic base means a strong turnout, and that was the key to victory in 2016 despite the polls showing a Clinton lead.You may want to use this site to track his rating. Right now its at 41%. Thats less than half. The 8 % that are not his base and approve now will change their minds shortly.According to the latest RCP tally, 42.3% of the country approves of the job the President is doing and 49.9% of the country approves of what he is doing for the economy. That should be enough to get him reelected unless the Democrats can come up with a stronger candidate than those presently being considered.The key problem is that Drumpfs base is at most a third of the country. Everyone else either thinks Drumpf is wrong as two left shoes or he is retarded.The key problem with the shutdown is the longer it lasts the more solid Trump's support in his base.
But deep pocket D campaign supporters are purportedly wondering what value they are getting for their money but hard numbers as to such irritation are notable by their absence
There are all sorts of squishy dates being thrown around. For example NBR had an implied date of 30 days before big Pharma turns on the Ds last night. (A guess about estimated lost gross revenues from the FDA drug approval shutdown an opinion that is worth its weight in gold.)
The big banks are not happy about Trump being distracted from the China trade deal by the Ds not funding the wall but when will Goldman Sachs or other leftist banks stop writing checks to the Ds? I haven't seen any numbers.
Then there are building and mortgage companies that can't get answers from the IRS.
And while the courts are likely to fast track a state of emergency Trump is just waiting out for D donors to turn on them. So what is your guess as to when the Ds will cave?
How Popular Is Donald Trump?
