Styx on CNN admitting "the wind is shifting in Trump's favor":
In 2016, I would never have said Trump was going to win by a landslide, and in fact, he didn't: his electoral-vote count was 306 to Hillary Clinton's 232—a wide margin of victory, but hardly a landslide at 56.9% of the total electoral vote. To me, a landslide is when the candidate takes over 70% of the total number of electoral votes. Now, like a lot of alt-media pundits, I think Trump might actually pull off an electoral-vote landslide, even if he fails to take California (55 electoral votes) and New York (29). 70% of 538 total electoral votes is about 377 votes. If we assume Trump wins all states but New York and California, he'd win 538 - 55 - 29 = 454 votes, i.e., 84.4%. I'd say that's conceivable this time around, and it'd be a huge fuck-you to the people who want to destroy the Electoral College. California and New York would be effectively muzzled, and even if Joe Biden carried those states by vote margins in the millions, it'd be all for nothing. Is the wind shifting in Trump's favor? I'd say it shifted long ago, and we have the riots and the scaredy-cat responses to the pandemic to thank for that.
