Do you think Trump have a chance in Pennsylvania?

Polls say he does which is ridiculous, but it is what it is.

Hillary is better on the environment, education, and more stable dealing w/ foreign affairs.

As far as trade policy, I dont believe Bernie was realistic and I know Trump is just telling morons like u what they want to hear. The jobs he's talkin about bringing back aint coming back unless u talkin about putting some serious tax burden on big business. Good luck passing that w/ a gop controlled house.

She's pro-fracking which hurts the environment. Trump doesn't have a good record on that either. Foreign affairs? Like her tenure as Secretary Of State which was horrible? It's only realistic when the American people get fukked right? Like I said, Trump is NOT my ideal candidate, but I can stomach him. I thought this election would be different, well it is different in a HORRIBLE way. Why get into conflict with other countries that don't have shyt to do with us? Because of oil and profit? We have problems at home. I'd rather take Trump for four years than eight years of Clinton. Because I know she'll be reelected She DEFINITELY CANNOT be trusted with classified info. Just look at how she handle classified info as Secretary. People are TIRED and I feel their pain. You have to admit that Clinton was a horrible pick to run. She was even hated before she ran.

The difference is 11.

But he have no chance in Pennsylvania. Hillary is going to win Pennsylvania more than Obama did in 2012.

Name one.

Silence me and name a single Republican nominee who has ever said we need protect our LGBT citizens from the violence and oppression of hateful ideology.
Silence me and name a single Republican nominee who has ever said that young Americans in Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, Ferguson have as much of a right to live out their dreams as any other child America, and that 4/10 African-American children are living in poverty, and how fukked up the inner cities are.
Silence me and name a single Republican nominee who has ever talked about how millions of African-Americans and Latinos are in poverty due to shytty economic immigration policies.
Silence me and name a single Republican nominee who has ever talked about the destruction wrought in the lives of millions of Middle Easterners due to idiotic wars.
Silence me and name a single Republican nominee who has ever talked about the rigged politico-economic system that puts lobbyists and special interests above the average person.

fukk you nikka. Your arms are too short to box with me. You are dismissed.

It's lip service. You won't see that reflected in any actual policy. Just like Trump's fake anti-free trade stance. And his bullshyt anti-establishment stance.

She has defended fracking on the debate stage NUMEROUS of times. Sanders stood against it. Look at Flint, that happens because of toxic waste and can be caused by fracking.

I'd be shocked if trump win Ohio or Michigan. He needs 1 ofnthose to pull this thing off. Im scared cuz the nation is filled w/ morons like @JudgeJoeGorilla and u can't predict what idiots will do, but she's gonna eat in Fla, North Carolina, Va, and give him fights in Utah and Az.

Flint happened becuz the state gov cut cost amd failed its citizens. Im not pro frackimg, but n1gga please.

 

[El Bombi]

When the last time a Republican won Pennsylvania? 1988 The demographics in Pennsylvania has changed dramatically since then and is not in Trump's favor.

So, you think Trump can win Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Florida? That what he needs to happen to win this election.

 

[Domingo Halliburton]

Do you think Trump have a chance in Pennsylvania?

The state is +10% registered dems vs repubs. but as someone who has lived there the majority of my life...there are a lot of people who were employed by the steel/coal/gas industries and it's dried up. Even the recent natural gas/fracking boom. There are a lot of older people who used to be democrats back in the day because of unions, but that have morphed into Republican based on gods and guns.


Still, I expect Philly to keep us blue.

I don't believe it will be a swing state, and it speaks to how weak of a campaign Hillary is running if it is.

Edit: And I don't mean to make it out to be like there's no jobs, they've obviously adapted. It's still 5 or 6 in population. There's just a lot of rural areas. I'm just saying it has an aging population that votes a certain way.

You don't know that. You're assuming it because it doesn't fit your narrative of Donald Trump as Hitler. You're more willing to accept that Hillary Clinton, who has actually proven to be an establishment lackey for over 25 years, is more anti-establishment than first time politician Donald Trump. You're more willing to accept that Hillary Clinton, who has actually supported these free trade deals like NAFTA and TPP, is more anti-free trade than Donald Trump, who has been railing against NAFTA for 20 years and has never supported TPP.

"Trump surely couldn't mean any of those things, because I like those things and I don't like Trump."

And even if it was lip service, it dramatically shifted the realm of what is acceptable in American political discourse, which has huge effects on the policies that are seen as viable.
