    Interesting and it makes a lot of sense for Republicans to do this.

    Now I see why those numbers are the way they are.

    I'll keep an eye out for them.

    I've gotten anti-Biden mailers from the MN Republican party but not from that group.

    How Far Will Donald Trump Go to Win?
    The president has bent the Republican Party to his will, and is trying to do the same with democracy and reality itself. Can the Biden-Harris ticket stop him?

    Reports cooked up with Russian disinformation served through Ukrainian intermediaries, with the help of a Senator who actually accompanied Biden on the U.S. team that worked to oust their corrupt...was it Attorney General, something like that?

    Who woulda saw this coming?!?!?!

    I hope people don`t fall for this BS, I hope all these Trumpublicans who partake in the lies and rhetoric get booted out just like the little orange man

    Baby in chief clamoring for recognition/attention from media as usual - "I was nominated for Nobel, but media didn't say nothing about that. boohoo." I guess being called a murderer for organizing an indoor rally amid a pandemic will have to do for now. Funny how talking **** about "libtards" is compared to BLM (open-air) protests by Trump's handlers - civil rights movement for old white men is in full swing. (where do I sign up?)

    How much better the world would've been if he just stuck to being a feature of tabloids instead of national news.

    @ROXRAN , do you support this rally? He really stuck it to the democratic governor and COVID19 there. More jobs are coming any moment now - as soon as some people from this hot spot die and free up the space...

    So much orange....all you can see are these blue eyes, evil blue eyes, peering out from an orange glow not unlike images of San Francisco this past week.

    Maine and Nebraska? He's getting his ass kicked in ME right now (Biden 52 - trumpybear 41) so I'm not sure the point of moving money away from actual battleground states. Polling might be showing tight in NE but it's not very likely to go for Vice President Biden. A total of possibly 5 electoral votes between those 2 states. That makes no sense.

    ME and NE split there electoral votes. There are several analysis showing that those split votes could be key and either Biden or Trump could win depending on how those votes could go. There are districts in ME where Trump could win and the Lincoln district in NE Biden could win.

    There are a lot of avenues that Trump can go as far as spending campaign money and resources. We tend to look at conventional wisdom but the demographics and issues have changed in four years. There are some areas where Trump could surprise. His efforts in Florida have been very fruitful, as he has done a strong job of rallying the Cuban vote and he will likely pick off some seniors as well who are just looking for an excuse to vote for him.

    Bingo...looks like he's got intel to go after one specific path to victory.

    If he wins in AZ, NC, FL, and gets the extra vote in ME and NE, he then only needs one of MN, MI, WI, or PA to win. For MN or WI, those two extra single electoral votes in ME and NE would put him up 270-268 overall.

    I know...but to pull money from the states they're pulling from seems like a bad idea for, at best, 2 electoral votes. OH and WI are way too close to pull $ from, IMO. Maybe the reported cash crunch is real.

    We don't know what their internal polling and information is.

    I will give Trump the benefit of the doubt as his strategy in 2016 proved to be exceptional.

    There are a lot of grass roots with Trump, he likely has decided he needs those couple electoral votes.

    Trump is running low on money. That fundraising advantage is LONG Gone. The Democrats are getting money donations hand over fist.
