    It's a category error to assume it is a bad idea to campaign in places you're unpopular, if you have a realistic prospect of winning the state (which Trump did in 2016). Losing by 32% is still better for your statewide campaign than losing by 100%.https://twitter.com/DrewSav/status/1106662684509028352 …

    Trump will be holding a rally in Grand Rapids, Michigan soon. He lost the city by 32% in 2016.

        This is an area which is likely rich in Trump voters.

        Trump did much worse than Romney in Grand Rapids. Romney lost it by 27%.

        Common for Trump in a lot of places. My point is just that fighting for every vote in those places matters. Rubio, for example, did a lot better than Trump in Florida by getting beat in the Miami area less badly than Trump.

        Don't these people also think it should be the National Popular Vote?

        Or you can just not campaign anywhere in a given state. Like Wisconsin for example.pic.twitter.com/x5v1hZZkFt

        Trump won Kent County, where GR is located. The city itself might not have voted Trump but the metro area is fairly conservative.pic.twitter.com/FyiPhhTC6h

        City of GR has roughly 1/5 of the population of the region of West Michigan (200K out of 1M) cc @CTIronman @mikek0126 @nshah23

        Dope. GR is a communist enclave. The region is not. I didn't vote for Trump, but Libtards and turning me his way.

        This is true--I actually think a key to Beto near upset in Texas. He went places Dems don't win, and probably cut into margins that Dems usually experience in those locales.

        Indeed, Illinois sometimes elects Republican governors because the candidate gets just over 30% in Cook County, rather than in the high 20's.
