40 state landslide? LMAO. These right wing nuts are simply delusional. Hoft spreads this nonsense and gullible right wingers buy it.

Consider that every reliable poll aggregator shows Clinton winning at least… 17 states (and that’s RCP, which leans GOP normally). That not only puts Clinton at 263 EVs, but limits Trump’s path to pretty much wishful thinking given that he can only safely rely on 14 states, which have far fewer EVs at stake - 164.

If there’s any potential for a landslide, it’s against Trump. Not for him. In fact, there’s a near mathematical impossibility for a Trump landslide (take your pick from PEC, Upshot, 538, etc.)

According to wingnuts, every general election is a replay of 1980 where they’re down but going to stage an 11th hour surge that sweeps them to the White House with 40+ state victory. It goes along with their delusion about how every candidate they put up is (at the time) the second-coming of St. Ron and thus fated to start another Golden Age of American Conservatism.
