Trump: I will win Illinois in a landslide

Trump also called out Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) who withdrew his endorsement after Trump criticized the ethnicity of a federal judge. Trump said he would win Illinois, typically a Democratic state, in a landslide. Kirk wasn't present at the meeting.

All of these will be strongly motivated to vote because ...Trump is Trump...worse than a garbage dump...

He will loose Illinois by at least 400,000 votes.

I can say with absolute certainty that the people of Illinois would rather launch of nuclear strike on themselves than vote for Trump.

Seriously, what kind of delusional world is this guy living in? There must be people in his campaign saying "you're up 30 points in California" and "the people of this nation see you as the second coming of Jesus".
