(13,538 posts)I know a few of them too. My point is that every time something like this happens and it shaves off some number of voters, it matters. Because think about it; this election is like no other. In any given election, you'll have Presidents who gain people and lose people from the previous election. Trump will hold onto "X" % of what he got in '16. But can you think of ANY Hillary voter who would now vote for trump? No. The only new votes he gets are ones who didnt vote in '16 & maybe some who werent 18. Thats why his numbers hardly ever go up; he's not convincing previous voters to now vote for him
EVERY vote counts. And EVERY one of his that can be shaved off is hard to replace
As for Rachel, i see what you're saying, but she made her point & i bet that will be the last post she makes about it; regardless of any new post from Trump. And i doubt he will respond because he cant refute her points
