Trump's Winning Key Swing States

Evidence of the tides turning, and the ultimate backfire may be beginning to show. You see, the democrats enjoyed some victories in the most recent election cycle, and while the left is rejoicing, they forget one thing.
Americans rarely want a concentration of power.
I mean, it happens. We've had majorities that match the White House in the past and even super-majorities. But mostly Americans prefer some contrast between who controls the legislative branch and who controls the executive one.
Granted, there's been no change of power. But one can still see the messaging.
This string of democrat victories may spell something here. Donald Trump. In other words, voters are setting the country up for a Trump victory. Not a Biden one.
And while I am not one to often trust polling, the polling has become quite close in that it seems that the polls are all stacking in favor of Trump. And bigly so. In the latest rounds of polling in at least 8 out of 10 of them Trump is either beating Biden or tied with him.
So, here are the results. In two polls Biden is beating Trump. In six polls Trump is beating Biden. And in two polls they are tied.
One of the bigger tells is where the wins for Trump are coming from, and that's the swing states. They are turning for Trump. Now granted, we have a long way to go, and who knows what the end result will be.
But one thing I suspect strongly is that it's finally kicking in. The big backfire. The democrats bit too hard into Trump and they're going so hard at him that the American people are probably prone to wonder why.
I am not going to claim a Trump victory just yet. But I sense it may be coming. And according to most of the polls? It also seems to be no contest and could be entering landslide territory.
But we'll just to wait and see.
All I can say to the democrats is that any victory dance you may be enjoying now might well be short lived. Enjoy it while you can. The host of the next big party may not be who you are expecting. On top of that? This big can of worms you opened up on Trump might turn out to be your worms.

Did you read my post? I said I don't trust polls either. I mean, Hillary Clinton was going to beat Trump in a landslide and she didn't even come close.
At the same time, the polls showed a different kind of victory for Clinton too. So, these polls seem a little bit different this time around. But we will have to wait and see. Still way too early to make any calls. I am not doing a victory dance here either.

@NJChicaa The popular vote has never mattered. Moot point. And Trump "technically" won the popular vote because the electoral votes are based on the popular vote in each state. The reason we have the electoral college is so that the rest of the country has a voice. Not just California, Texas, Florida and New York.

Polls don’t mean anything. But Trump is on his way up, even with all the drama with the indictments, etc. and without doing the debates. Heck, he does rallies when debates happen. Smart, isn’t it? He will surely be the top candidate for the Republican Party. I just hope we won’t get a repeat of what happened in 2020.

@porwest I don't think anyone will overtake him either. It's mind boggling how many don't want him as president. Like they want anyone but him. I say anyone but Biden.

@lovebuglena I think the idea that many people don't want him is false. Even in 2016 he received nearly 50% of the vote. He's way more popular than many will give him credit for, and I think 2024 is looking very good for him to win. Just my two cents.

There is one thought I have about 2024 and it is that the democrat party cannot steal an election twice. EVEN IF we are to believe Biden actually won, the American people know Biden's policies have failed. It's why his approval ratings are in the tank and badly.
I think Trump will be the 47th president and all the signs seem to be pointing in that direction. As for him not being the nominee, it seems impossible anyone would come close to catching up. Trump has 52% of support in the GOP and his closest competitor, Ron DeSantis only has 14%. It's just not going to happen that anyone overtakes him.

I don´t trust polls at all. In my country we have been getting addicted to political polls lately. And at the end, what really counts is how the people vote.

@porwest It is hard for me to understand your politics with just 2 parties. We have several.

@marguicha We have several as well technically. But only two really matter.

Neither do I as I alluded to a bit in this post. They had Hillary beating Trump in a landslide in 2016 and of course we know that didn't even come close. Nonetheless, it's the number of polls pointing in this direction and the nature of where the numbers are coming from, which are key swing states, which stacks the polls a bit closer to being POSSIBLY truer than not.
But like I said to @NJChicaa. Way too early to make any calls and I am doing any victory dances myself either. We're going to have to wait and see.
There is one OTHER THING that is interesting here, and that is that MOST of the time polls are heavily weighted toward democrats. It has always been that way. So, when the polls show a republican victory, you pay attention more, because they are showing the victory DESPITE the heavy weighting favoring democrats.
If the weighting still shows a republican lead. That's a little bit more of a tell than when it shows a democrat lead.

You are right since what does not destroy someone will only make them stronger.

@porwest You are right since according to the vloggers on You Tube, they are saying that people are angry at President Biden for his mishandling the economy.

@Deepizzaguy The economy is usually a pretty big deal when it comes to elections. We'll see if it matters this time around. Either way, on almost all policy matters, Biden's approval numbers are in the tank.

Boy, I will tell you one thing, the MORE the democrats try to destroy Trump the bigger and stronger he gets. He got 10 million more votes in 2020 than he got in 2016, and I think he might be able to get 10 million more in 2024 than he got in 2020.
Still way too early to tell or even to make a call. But he's definitely getting more support, it would seem, the more they (the democrats) go after him.
It would be one thing if they were going after Trump and succeeding in running the country. But they are going after him while running the country into the ground. The American people are paying attention, and regardless of anything else, I think the American people will decide they can't give another four years to Biden, because despite any feelings about Trump, Biden hasn't earned it, and no matter how they (the democrats and the media) try to spin it, the AMERICAN PEOPLE know things were better when Trump was president.

Polls have always seemed to me like a bunch of people believing what is told them and forming a conga line one behind the other,

They are not all that reliable, that's for sure. Many times they are very wrong. There's also something they use, known as "weighting" which often favors the polls toward democrats, and helps to make them less accurate. Some are more reliable than others due to the way in which they conduct the polls.
What's interesting in these polls is that Trump is winning in them, and that's a HUGE tell since many Trump supporters are less likely to be open about their support of him. If the polls are showing Trump winning, it's likely he's not only really winning, but winning by massively higher numbers than the polls currently allude to.
If the polls were a measure, Trump will win in a landslide victory in 2024.

3 years of, "you reap what you sow".
But to the good ones, we patiently wait... and put our trust in the One Who created and runs the universe.
Things are coming to light and will get better to great.

What I find most interesting recently is the number of left-leaning personalities announcing Third Party Presidential bids. Cornell West, Robert Kennedy Jr., and now "drum roll" please, the return of Jill Stein, Green Party candidate.
Since President Trump has a solid base of support (who would vote for him even if he is in a jail cell), Biden's base seems to be splintering. Can anyone say Ralph Nadar. 
This certainly helps Trump in the swing states.
