Not sure what that has to do with what I was talking about. I was saying that at best a 3rd of the country supports him...and if you only go to areas where you know you are supported, of course your crowds look big. It works for both sides. It's all a show of smoke and mirrors.
I don't think he will win New Mexico in 2020 either. Good on him for trying though. Surprised he didn't say they need to build a wall around it. "We're going to build a wall around New Mexico...and New Mexico is going to pay for it."
He didn't win Oregon, but I'm sure there are areas of Oregon that he would sell a lot of tickets in. He'd probably sell a lot of tickets in an event in Portland, but he'd probably be outdrawn by Bernie or Elizabeth in Portland. It depends on location and size of building.
It was really funny looking at voting results for 2016 with my friend in So Cal a couple years back. Ojai which is in Ventura Count went about 76% for Trump. It was over whelmed in Ventura county by Oxnard which voted for Clinton by more votes than Oxnard's registered Voters. It sort of fucked up the percentage calculations.
True, and the Dem candidates seem to draw like Nashville wannabes. But, I'm sure once a nominee has been determined, that will all change. I was always impressed by the enormous crowds Obama drew. That said, he was an agent of (about face) change. So is Trump.
By agent of change, you mean pushing us closer to war with Iran, farmers going bankrupt, reducing or eliminating regulations that make the USA a safer and cleaner place to live and on and on. The art of the deal is now called the myth of the deal. Oh, but wait, trump has announced another middle class tax cut. Probably be the same deal we got when he promised a middle class tax cut right before the 2018 elections, which was a nothingburger.
huh? his ratings are around 40% and he was in New Mexico where the metro area population is around 1 mil so if there were 20,000 at his rally that's around 2% of the people in that area.
