    Just added up Trumps points, counting the states he's won for sure, and the ones he's winning (according to google). If nothing changes (which I'm not naive enough to think some won't) he's at 264. We maybe looking at a landslide win.

    Things have changed. But it's still looking like a Trump win. Not by a landslide, but solid. He is still leading in the popular vote, but not by as big a margin as the EC.

    With AZ, AK, and that one district in Maine, it looks like a tie is the worst he could do.

    Trump leads in Michigan and Pennsylvania, but they haven't been called. His lead in both states is less than a 100k.

    What if the DNC ran Bernie? Would it have gone different?

    In my opinion, it's over. Trump won. He's leading in all the battleground states that are left.

    It's a possibility. But I think the political pundits all underestimated the desire of the people for change. Also the amount of loathing the citizenry had for Hillary.

    It may have been a McGovern\Dukakis debacle. He may not have had Clinton's coattails.

    Maybe, but we'll never know. Whether you argue one way or the other, you're right according to Schrödinger.

    I'm wondering why CNN and Fox have different numbers. It may be because CNN hasn't yet called Wisconsin for Trump.

    We did it! Very thankful to God. We need to pray for Trump continually.

    Very good speech, BTW. Gracious.
