Trump: "I'll probably be re-elected in a landslide"

I saw a short video clip last night on either CNN or MSNBC of a White House reporter (April Ryan ?) saying to Trump:

“People are demonstrating around America, demanding the lifting of ‘stay at home’ orders and the reopening of businesses. Most of these people are not practicing ‘safe distancing’ or wearing face masks.
Because of this, some may get sick from the virus, and some may die. What do you (Trump) say to these people?”

Trump: “They like me, and I’ll probably be re-elected in a landslide.”

Has been for a while. They have no idea that people might not like Trump and often don’t understand how people don’t praise him.

They are convinced he has done everything he promised (coal, wall, etc) and anything other than a landslide means the election was rigged.

He'll "be re-elected by a landslide" is if somehow everything is totally rigged in every state.

He'll probably get his cult followers but I think the majority of voters have had enough of his narcissistic pig droppings.

The highly manipulative Orange Child sociopath, uses the relatively short daily coronavirus briefing to segue into a long lying con job campaign session to get re-elected. It’s all bullshit just like all those dirtbag car sales people that we all hate to deal with.

Hopefully, he will lose in a landslide.

11. In almost any other country it would be unthinkable he'd be re elected by any margin

In this fourth rate, long past it’s prime, overrated, goober filled, third world dung pile of a country, it’s a 50-50 shot.
