    He probably would have even after the debate.

    The biggest shifts in voters where white men and hispanic men. The two goups with machismo issues.

    So basically they lost by running a woman

      They had internal polling showing Trump would take 400 electoral votes after that debate. If you don’t remember how disastrous it was then go watch it again.

        And there was the better part of a year between the debate and the election. Attention spans are short considering we elected a guy who attempted a coup and has financial ties to the Kremlin.

          They aren’t that short. And what are the odds he spikes the second debate too? This isn’t T-Ball, you don’t get your guaranteed batting chance.
