What has changed is how much we underestimated how many of our countrymen and women admire a crook, conman, demagogue and malignant narcissist so long as he waves the flag and carries the Bible. Seriously, we underestimated the number of these people...

MI and PA may go to them as well (Amash seat ties MI, and they have 2 or 3 other races to take it) and PA is dead tied, and again, they have good shots to take it in 2 or 3 races

Each state gets 1 vote or something dumb like that which means Trump would win.
