Writing for the ultra-conservative Federalist, Stewart Lawrence all but admits that, when it comes to the 2020 election, Trump is in trouble in the Rust Belt states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvaniathe three that put him over the top in 2016. But not to worry, Lawrence has a solution.
Thanks to the success of Trumps policies and other fortuitous developments, several other blue-trending states are certain to be in play in 2020.
Of these, none is more important than Minnesota. Its 10 electoral votes alone could offset a possible Rust Belt loss. The mainstream media has barely covered Trumps remarkable gains in Minnesota, a state that historically is the bluest of the blue.
Apparently, the president agrees.
