If polling says he’s good in the Rust Belt, he should run up options elsewhere. Targeting 271 is fine...but that’s a threaded needle.

Targeting 351 if you feel confident at 271 gives you a lot better odds in case a MI goes sideways... or at least makes Trump spend resources in Texas that honestly Trump doesn’t have at the moment.

Give me 6 options to win once. Hillary ignored her weakness and indirectly gave herself limited ways to win. Biden isn’t doing that.

Fwiw, electoral-vote.com has PA as the tipping point with Biden +5, and four more blue states after that, so there’s some room to work with. -- (link*) - znufrii needs to cancel his gym membership Sep 23, 07:48 3
- I want a needle wide enough Trump’s ego can walk through it. “America supports me over Biden!” “You lost fucking TEXAS! Sit the fuck down!” -- nm - Will Hunting Sep 23, 07:52 2
  - I really want the eye to be big enough that he gets held to account and spends time in prison. - TWuG Sep 23, 07:58

Agreed. And then there's this: I want the bastard crushed. - pmb Sep 23, 07:48 1
- Also the bigger the EV margin the less chance Trump - eag Sep 23, 07:52
