Perspective: Trump Miscalculated White Support … Biden Outfoxed Him

January 25, 2021 | By Hopeton O’Connor-Dennie |

The analysis of Biden Harris winning strategy will be analyzed for years to come.  Trump was cock sure that despite falling poll numbers and rising COVID infections and deaths he would still get his wish for a second term. His job figures were quite good although the pandemic was not helping.  He felt his support among white voters would do it for him. He was dead wrong.  Black Lives Matter movement (BLM) was not in Trump’s radar.

Popular vote

Trump forgot that despite getting the college votes last time 2016 that beat Hilary Clinton, he did not get the popular vote.  Hilary got some 3 million votes more than be got.  Trump won in the key places that gave him the required collage votes.

2020

This time around 2020 Trump lost by (7) seven million votes. Again his popular vote loss doubled under Biden when compared with 2016 despite Trump getting 74 million votes 2020. Trump needs a reality check like so many politicians and political prostitutes they tend to be constipated with ignorance.  State Minister Information,  Robert Nesta Morgan in the Andrew Holness government is one such individual in Jamaica W.I.

Asshole

Only someone who could be best described as having asshole thinking could say that having lost a vote by 7 million that the Election was stolen from you. Just like saying a Senate not duly constituted is the Opposition’s business only.  Ask State Minister Robert Nesta Morgan of Jamaica.

We need to wise up and stop holding onto or spread falsehood.  We seriously damage our credibility when we repeat information that we know lacks truth or foundation. Trump needs to be ashamed of himself.
