5. The cracks have already started, and it started in Tulsa OK, where projections were up...

to 800K people who would see trump (a ridiculous number sprouted by trump campaigners) when he visited.

Instead, a mere 6,000 showed up instead, and the event turned into a super spreader for the Corona Virus that killed Herman Cain too.

IMHO, it's at this point where the cracks in the persistently high level of trump support first appeared. Perhaps too many tweets by rump finally is driving his numbers down, or the magnitude and sheer number of his lies finally caught up w/ his support, or he insulted
and drove voters away (the military, suburban housewives, etc., the list goes on).

I predict that rump will lose in a blowout.

And most predictions for a possible trump victory (Michael Moore for example) seem to favor the mysterious trump voter who hadn't voted yet by the millions (very doubtful, where are all of these missing voters?).
