I'm sorry

I cannot imagine Dump winning the election next time out. I'm factoring in the Russians, the gerrymandering, voter purges and any other dirty tricks the GOP has up it's sleeve.

It's unfathomable.

1. It was unfathomable the first time.

10. +1000

2. I hear you, but I said that in 2016, too.

It seemed inconceivable to me then, and I'm not about to be shocked like that again. Hope is not a strategy.

13. On Election Day in 2016 my fiance

asked me if Trump could possibly win. “Oh GOD no!” I said. “Not a chance.”

So, yeah. I don’t take anything for granted anymore.

6. not "most'

yes, but a minority. 25-35% would be in the really like him category.
IMHO, the "win" was the outcome only because of cheating. Our side got a really big majority of the popular votes.
Sure, they will try to steal the action again, seems the only way that party can elect a lot of. their candidates.
I take great hope with our.victories in the mid-terms, and am really enthusiastic about a lot of our representatives.

4. Two things: don't take that election for granted - a lot of us took 2016 for granted, and maybe ...

worse - if too many don't vote because Trump can't win even if he doesn't all the down ballot Democrats lose. I know Donald Trump will lose even if he's not in jail by then but I am voting for whichever of the the solidly gifted candidates we chose to field and I am voting to give that POTUS (whoever Democrat it may be) the best Senate and Congress, state legislature, city council, mayor and dogcatcher I can.

To do that we need to get out the vote like Trump or Pence is a shoo in if we don't vote. Cuz its happened before.

[NanceGreggs]

5. Agreed.

For the reasons you've cited, as well as his conduct for the past two years. Add in the Mueller factor, and he's toast.

I still don't think he'll even be on the ticket.

[0rganism]

7. have you factored in racism, religion, and greed?

our nation exposed its ugly underbelly in 2016
i hope we're all tired of gazing at it by 2020

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

8. I'm so sure of a Dem victory, that I can vote Green party and it'll make no difference.

It worked well the last time, right?

[TreasonousBastard]

14. I see what you did there.

[lunamagica]

9. With all that has happened, nothing surprises me anymore

[jcgoldie]

11. in any reasonable universe thats correct

I feel like people who live in rural areas and red states have a more realistic understanding of how this crazy shit is possible unfortunately.

[irisblue]

12. I argued and believed that Shrub couldn't 'win' in 2004.

People are weird and foolish on a regular basis.
