Trump just says: "the only way Hillary Clinton wins in Pennsilvania is if she cheats" CNN

He's building his brand for the after-election exploitation to make billions IMHO Why else would he go to Connecticut? To grab all the followers he can, to then monetize them in the years to come after he loses. He doesn't seem to care that he can't win the election there. That there is no electroral point to go there. But people in connecticut have money to spend on Trump books and dvds and networks into the future. Is he pulling a complete con on the GOP? And if Trump supporters across the country believe Hillary cheated to win the election, well that is the great hook to keep them as followers after his major loss.

When Trump says "Certain parts of the State"... he means Philadelphia... and on a base level for his audience, black people and white democrats.

Because does anybody still believe that Trump's really a billionaire?

average of $100 on Trump gear, networks, books, dvds in the future that is $5.2 Billion dollars. But Trump voters are not the richest fish in the sea. That is why Trump going to Connecticut jumps out at me.
