If you had ANY chance of winning MN, that ended it.

If the people in Minnesota didn't have enough incentive to vote him out of office there is certainly some extra sauce for the goose.

But I now agree with a previous poster--I'd tolerate him and his remaining in the US--as long as it's in a maximum security prison.

If there were ANY fence-sitters in Mn, Trump just told them to fuck off. You don't give people an ultimatum. You ask for their support. He's too full of himself to even posture as a person who needs someone's help.

How about, "If I lose the nation and the election, I'm never coming back." Now THAT would be a statement to remember. But with Mn, he's already conceding the election. OH. He's not coming back.

And didn’t make that offer. He really hates New Yorkers and the feeling is mutual.

Still I hope he has a nice long stay in Ossining, NY

Trump just fired up more people in Minnesota to work for Biden.


He didn't win the State in 2016 what makes him think he will win it in 2020?

It's the second time he's done this at a rally (Biden used his last for a hilarious internet ad).

I think it's a sign that his campaign is completely off its hinges: it is so self-directed and self-regarding that even devoted Trumpies must be scratching their head at it.

"If you don't do this thing for me, you'll never see me again." It's not the language of sales, but the language of the abuser. As George Dubya said of Trump's inaugural mess, "That was some weird shit."

He can see if Putin will take him in. Because he definitely needs to face many criminal charges here in the US.
