Again, republicans are gloating about how they're going to wipe the floor with dems

in November. Go to any right wing site and you'll see it.

It's nutty. They're convinced that if Clinton is the dem nominee and Trump is the republican standard bearer, Trump will take NY. And quite possibly NJ! Maybe even MA and VT! They're talking about how CA is in play. They are so enamoured with the Orange Tufted Bufoon, that they can't even entertain the idea that all of America isn't as besotted as they are.

They evidently have no memory of how their confidence that they'd win in 2012, was shattered.

democrats would still, probably, win the White House. The problem for democrats in that situation would be the even redder congress.

The most tone-deaf politician next to Jeb! was somehow going to beat one of the most popular presidents in recent memory? How did that work out?

Of course, people said that a dry drunk know-nothing would never beat a popular Vice-President. Or an actor would have no chance.

...they think it was stolen by perfidious Democrats stuffing ballots with dead people and illegal immigrants.

And RINO establishment Republicans are apparently too busy capitulating to the ClintObama Socialist Caliphate to offer even a few of those "illegals" some sweet deal in order to get evidence to bring down the hated Democrats and usher in a Better America(Tim). Because a life of picking eggplant and fruit trees is the Mexican Dream, evidently.

If you listen to them, ACORN is an organizational Jason Voorhees: and evil that never stays dead.
