Trump: Clinton can't win Pennsylvania without cheating.

He just said this at his rally in Altoona,PA. He's unhinged and talking off the cuff again.

He is right now setting himself up to drop out the race. Lol.

My question is to him, how would Hilary cheat in PA? Lol.

His wife has no interest in being the FLOTUS. I even think it's possible that she added extra words to her speech on purpose.

And that, in my opinion, is dangerous.

I think he's setting up a reason for his supporters to "exercise their 2nd Amendment rights" when he loses.

He wants to start a civil war cause he's a sore loser. He's prepping them now.

when most of them retreat to their mothers' basements to voice their anger on Twitter; but there's likely to be a few that are nutty enough to stomp around in old army-surplus BDUs waving their AR-15s, at least until the Secret Service hauls them away.

Yesterday, he acknowledged he might lose the election, and now this.

No need to cheat.

Trump needs to back up his accusation with evidence or recant and apologize.
Enough of this Trump bullshit.

and that rare 1% he is actively lying

that being said, PA worries me right now. Hillary is not well liked, and she will need a solid turnout to overcome the guns and god crew in PA.

This time in 2012 I saw Obama stickers and signage all around Lancaster and Reading. I see nothing today. No enthusiasm and not much presence other than a few nightly new add spots.

I think in the past week, I've seen more Giant Meteor 2016 bumper stickers than Hillary and Trump combined.

Had her ahead 83-7 in Philly and FORTY points ahead in the four counties surrounding Philly, 60-20.
Let's hope it stays that way.

telling people you're going to get cheated no matter what you vote is strong motivation for them not to show up at the polls. So please be all means I hope Trump keeps saying he can't win because the other side is cheating. People that don't think they can win, won't vote in large numbers. This is why normal candidates don't suggest the other side is rigging things so there's no chance of winning. This is normal * normal candidates and campaigns understand.
