Not quite the blow-out that Reagan inflicted on Carter, but there are a lot of similarities. Carter destroyed the economy and was so weak on foreign policy that Iran became emboldened. Obama has reigned over the worst economic recovery ever and is so weak on foreign policy that Russia is dictating Mid-east policy.
Other things simply add to the margin.
As inept as he was, we all liked Jimmy Carter as a person. Even Clinton's followers don't like her. Jimmy's brother was a clown who tried to capitalize on Jimmy's fame by selling beer. Hillary's husband is a serial philanderer and abuser of women. To try and counter that, Hillary has trotted out 13 women with unconvincing stories.
Trump has focused on blue collar job growth and has a simple plan that even union guys can understand. Hillary is tied into Goldman Sachs.
Wikileaks has exposed the Big Media - Democrat Party - Huge Corporate Donor hypocritical clusterfuck that we all suspected and now, for the first time, have indisputable proof. Even Mike Moore endorsed Trump as the "the biggest fuck you" to this incestuous mess. Lots of people have come out to say that they are going to vote 'against the media'.
Hillary cannot rely on the black vote like Obama did. First of all, she's not black. Black women have a hard time relating to an entitled white woman. Black men don't like a controlling biatch. Trump is polling 20% and above with blacks- that alone spells trouble for the Democrat. I suspect many of the remaining 80% will choose to stay home.
Hillary will get a majority of the women vote simply because she is a woman. But a lot of woman hate her because she is a such a poor representative of their gender.
Millennials aren't suckling pigs on big media like older generations have been. Many don't even watch network TV- my kids certainly don't. Eight years ago most young folk got their news from comedian John Stewart. Today they get it from social media. And Trump has mastered that.
Do me a favor, define "win big"?
