Fair enough - I must have missed those posts or at least skimmed over them not taking them too seriously since there is an air of unrealistic fatalism about that pov.Loads of people - on here and elsewhere - seem to think it's a dead cert because of the result in Iowa.
- So I completely agree, as far as the GE, it is way too early - as I posted above, Iowa is a strong Republican State with 75% of Republican voters Evangelicals, a concentrated support base that Trump has cultivated - Trump was already way ahead of Haley and Desantis going into the caucuses on the national polls so the results aren’t surprising. Iowa while often referred to as the ‘test’ State for Republican feeling, it actually only makes up 1.6% of the Convention vote (40 delegates). Let’s see how he does in the Democratic States and swing States’ primaries. The winner of Iowa doesn’t necessarily win the election either - Cruz won in 2016 - Trump came second.
