Longtime Trump supporter switches to Hillary after realizing Trump is ’23 cans short of a case’

Ten months ago, Philadelphia resident and former Pennsylvania state senator T. Milton Street attended a Trump rally in Virginia and expressed his enthusiastic support for the candidate.

In fact, Trump even name-checked Street during one of his rallies and called him a “highly respected, great man in Philadelphia.”

Now, however, Street tells the Philadelphia Inquirer that he’s jumped off the Trump train and has switched to a vehicle that seems much less likely to end up a smoking wreck.

Specifically, Street says he decided against voting for Trump after realizing the candidate is “23 cans short of a full case,” and now he’s going to vote for Hillary Clinton instead.

There could well be a surprise landslide brewing.

My guess is Drumpf saw his campaign's internal poll numbers, and they're much worse than the polls the public has access to. This has been hinted at a few times recently.

That might be the reason for his "rigged election" nonsense - the map will look ridiculously blue.
