1. if we don't get Ohio this time, I say it is gone for good. Iowa too.

[DonaldsRump]

2. Nothing is gone for good

Are you joking? BHO won both states twice.

Quite remarkable to say that.

3. I suppose... But it would be hard to imagine a such a circumstance.

6. While you're correct, Trump is a uniquely hated conservative.

It’s unlikely that a generic Republican candidate would be getting hammered as badly in the polls as he is.

7. not sure why you would say that

Trump is doing a pretty good job of sinking the Republican brand (emphatically among younger voters) pretty much from coast to coast. Want to name me some Republican politicians in either state that are more popular now than they were in 2016?

I think your election angst is getting in the way of sounder judgement. ------- ----

10. If Ohio votes for a crazy-head twice...

It will be difficult to grab back if a "normal" Republican is on the ballot

8. That doesn't make any sense

And doesn’t seem to be a reaction to the good news the post was sharing.

9. If Ohio votes for a crazy-head twice...

Good luck grabbing Ohio when a "normal" Republican is on the ballot.

5. Yeah!!!

Pleasant surprise on both. Don’t know if that’ll hol DC but for now I’ll take it!
