      Anti-Trump conservative Twitter seems to still be far more confident that Trump will lose than liberal Twitter is

      Can't tell why. Is liberal Twitter more prone to bedwetting? Does hatred of Trump cloud judgment of anti-Trump conservative Twitter?

          Maybe we would kinda be cool with 269-263-6 deadlock and having a shot at President McMullin?

          I suppose that's true. Still, Trump victory seems more likely than the McMullin scenario

          Yeah, that's definitely very risky. Biggest factor, I think, is lack of emotional investment in Hillary.

        Maybe we're not as emotionally invested in Hillary? Trump is worse, but we lose either way, so we take it more in stride?

        That Trump is unelectable was one of the central tenets of #NeverTrump.

        twitter is fun because of liberal bed wetting, so I'm going with that. I'm anti Trump, but it's not impossible for him to win.

        We Liberals were the same 4 and 8 years ago. Gore’s loss messed our heads up big time.

        So it's the same penchant for self-confidence that conservatives have traditionally shown, in comparison to liberals.

        That's interesting. Maybe anti-Trumpian conservatives just can't imagine their party can exist (and succeed!) without them.

        #NeverTrump is full of ex-Romney 2012 people who believe a campaign worse than theirs can't possibly win.

        Probably goes back to how both react to bad polls: cons want to kill you, libs themselves. Cons more self assured
