People told me Trump couldn't win.

People told me Gore would win.

People told me Kerry would win.

Oh yeah, let's talk about the Kerry loss. Karl Rove successfully angered and scared enough Republicans to get them to vote in swing states. And won.

Now you see them doing everything they can to anger Republican voters to get them to vote.

I realize these are more local elections but I don't think Dems will do as well as the media says.

How many dems won't show up to vote because they assume Republicans will lose?

This is another empty Trump promise, such as he poops out at intervals. His entire life has been built on bluffing and teasing. For seventy years he never had to deliver, and so he still thinks, in his gut, that wishing out loud helps. It probably does, but it's not going to invent a Red Wave for him.

This is just Trump whining that no one is making his job easier.
