Feel like population maybe wasn't as large and has increased since then?

Sure the liberal media would have but the mainstream media has a credibility problem with large swaths of the public, plus the conservative media would have excused him and called it all fake news or deflected to something about a democrat.

Partisan news has made it so it’s nearly impossible for a politician’s base to abandon him.

Fair point about population increase. That may be true. I don’t know.

But I still say such a landslide isn’t really possible anymore.

I disagree with you. I don't think the left leaning media would have seen Reagan as having no chance the way they did Trump. The very reason they gave Trump so much attention is cuz they thought he was a joke.

So I just do not think they'd behave the same.

Well we were talking about Nixon with the media. Not Reagan. They definitely would have taken Reagan more seriously since he had a lot of experience in government by the time he ran for president. He had been governor of California by that point.

Remember. You can't have a single opinion about anything political until the the next election.

Thems the rules.

No. I’m going to have more opinions, especially on things I’m uneducated on.

It will be about a week, if it is close, before Biden formally concedes IF and only if Trump wins by a slim margin.


Trump will fight it for weeks if the election is close and Trump loses.

Trump will fight it for weeks even if it’s a Biden landslide.

A Trump landslide will also be obvious pretty quickly.

Any other scenario it will probably take several days/weeks/months.



Polls aren't correct though, just as they weren't correct in 2016.

Well, Trump got like 70-80 more electoral votes than Hillary in 2016.

That wasn't exactly a close election lol.

*standby for snowflakes starting to cry about "muh popular vote her derp!"*

Trump routinely gets tens-of-thousands of fans to show up at his rallies. I believe he got over 50k at one of his most recent ones.

If that isn't being popular I don't know what is.

The popular vote isn't what determines if an election is a landslide lol.


It's the EC vote which is the only vote that truly matters.
