Hopefully, the last (for a while)

OK, Trump has his 312 electoral votes, which includes no less than 8 states flipped. All things being equal, an impressive win.

But things might have been better. Jason Meister, Trump's polling guru, thought he'd hit between 308 and (are you ready?) 400 electoral votes. Insane, you say? Well, when you consider he came very close in Jersey and pretty close in, of all places, IL, it may not have been so crazy, after all.

For a laugh, I made a list of states the Trump campaign thought doable and, yeah, it would have made 400.

NY - 28

NJ - 14

NH - 4

ME - 4

NM - 5

CO - 10

VA - 13

MN - 10

I wish we did better on Senators, but if we keep the House it will be a pretty great night. A very good night for Donald Trump (and the USA).
