    This is crucial. Trump's strength is not that he's popular but he out performs in states GOP needs for its electoral college victory. Strikingly true even in 2020 when he lost (it was scarily close in swing states).https://twitter.com/awprokop/status/1491503201526423570 …

        So Trump's real strength is the US Constitution's weakness.

        Electoral college preference isn't fixed though. VA went from Red to Blue, and GA might in the near future. But I think PA-WI-MN are gonna swing red, like OH has.

        As much as they are trying, I really don't think there is anyone besides Trump himself that this works out so well for. The RNC would be better running Ivanka Trump than Ted Cruz, in my opinion.

        So he never had any interest in winning the popular vote. He counted on winning those few states and their electors with plan B stopping the count and throwing the election to congress or SCOTUS. How to we stop a similar strategy in 2024? By winning more seats in 2022 to start.
