    No. You claim that you see no reason for NH to go to the GOP and yet you had no idea that WI, MI and PA or probably FL and SC were going to go to the Republicans. You guys live in your bubble where you are certain that you hold the prevailing opinions and then the votes are counted and you scream that you were robbed, by the Chads, or by Willie Horton, or by The Ayatollahs! or by Diebold! and now the Russians!

    We see right through you!

    Focus to the state I'm posting about. One state. New Hampshire. I have asked you at least a half dozen times why you believe New Hampshire will flip for Trump in 2020. Your answers? Pennsylvania!,the Russians!, and now we have the Ayatollahs, Willie Horton and the Chads, and a bunch more states.

    If you want to troll, just say it. You have no idea why NH would flip to Trump in 2020. You're just using it to troll up the board.

    You think the "live free or die" state will vote for the free speech suppressing violent libs or the media that has completely disgraced itself and has lost any claim for honesty, respectability and neutrality? Think again... Or the "live free or die" state will vote for the Washington swamp, the ruling elites, their donors, lobbyists and special interests? NH almost flipped in 2016 and the hysterical libs, the media and the swamp's McCarthyism against Trump is not winning them any new voters, their delusional beliefs to the contrary notwithstanding.

    NH will be the easiest to flip, Trump lost it by less than 3,000 votes. MN, NV, NM, VA are valid and far more lucrative targets in 2020 as well.

    Of course I do. The Electorate prefers one choice over another. The same reason that you were stunned when Hillary lost FL, PA, WI, and MI, all states you were certain she was going to win. You lost 30 states to Trump when he was a complete outsider running a campaign on a shoestring compared to the often drunk and always corrupt Hillary. As an incumbent running for re-election, losing additional states shouldn't take you by surprise, probably no more than 7 more, which leaves you at 13, an unlikely number, I hate to remind you, but Trump will likely win more states, and NH will very likely be in that number.

    NH nearly went Trump last time, it will likely be the first additional state to fall into his column. I hate to be the bearer of what is obviously unbearable news for you, but Trump is quite popular with the Electorate and incumbent Presidents seeking re-election are nearly always re-elected.

    What is your personal experience with voters, voting, parties, and politics in the "live free or die" state? And what do you know of the media in the "live free or die" state?

    Exactly, a feather would knock NH into the Trump Camp. "Live Free Or Die!" These are born Trumpsters!

    Hey instead of blaming the media why not stop being an arrogant prick who lies on Twitter, and not do stuff that they can report negatively on?

    Stop trolling. This isn't about Hillary. And you have no clue what I thought was going to happen in the 2016 election so stop the lies about what I was "certain" was going to happen and what I was "stunned" about. Every stupid thing you just wrote their came from your imagination. Get back to facts.

    What is Trump's approval rating in New Hampshire?

    I ski and camp in NH a lot LOL, your and your ilk's absolute absence of any sort of personal experience with Russia does not stop you from bleating about it day in and day out. And the media in question is the MSM media, not their local media which in all likelihood is not any better and is not in any higher regard their then the rest of fake media.

    You ski and camp in NH and that makes you an expert on it? You have to be kidding. Tell me, what is it about skiing in New Hampshire which makes you so close to the politics in New Hampshire, and what New Hampshire media do you know about?

    My "ilk". That always makes me laugh.

    IT makes me an infinitely more of an expert that your absolute zero familiarity with Russia? The idea that you of all people, who barely completed high school, speaks no foreign languages, has never been abroad, let alone in Russia or Eastern Europe and consider yourself qualified to whine and bleat about it all day long but I am not an expert enough on NH is beyond ludicrous.

    Certainly the 2016 election was. The 2020 election will be about what new slob the DNC's rigged game, that picked Hillary as "The Sure Winner!" picks to take on the Formidable Trump! The DNC folks won't be any smarter in 2020, no matter how many "safaris" the Huff Post takes to the "strange and unknown" American Heartland. They will just be older!
    The polls always show Trump as behind, and then he wins! Polls for the Left essentially serve the function of the slaughtered entrails of a goat. You see what you want to see, then we vote, then you scream that "We Wuz Robbed!"

    But try not to be upset, pictures of cute baby animals are the best for making those happy feelings flow!

    What the **** does Russia have to do with New Hampshire? Can you exhibit even a little bit of adult behavior, and focus to the discussion? What a stupid, stupid post.

    You don't know anything about New Hampshire, and you shouldn't talk about something you know zero about.

    By the way, I've lived all over the world, as I've posted about here and other boards hundreds of times over the years. My husband is a former hockey player. We lived in Europe and I studied for a year in Vienna. I've been to Russia a half dozen times. I have been all over the world for business. It doesn't make me an expert on Russia, and I never claim to be an expert on Russia, and I seldom post about Russia. Not that that has anything to do with you and the guy who started the troll posts posting about the political landscape of New Hampshire, when you two know nothing about New Hampshire.

    LOL, so your few trips make you an expert on Russia, entitled to whine and bleat about it daily as if you have the slightest idea what you're talking about... but of course my trips to NH don't qualify for me to express my well thought out and argued views on the future voting patterns in that state? Jeez Duh, the Trump haters' hypocrisy and double standards are well beyond staggering and absurd.

    PS people make a lot of claims about themselves on the internets, 99% of them are lies.

    How much more stupid can your posts get? Did the words "I'm not an expert on Russia and never claimed to be an expert on Russia and seldom post about Russia" not resonate because they didn't come with pictures and dirty words?

    You don't know anything about New Hampshire elections. Skiing and camping in New Hampshire have zero to do with the complexity of the New Hampshire political system. The skiing and camping in New Hampshire doesn't cross into the political climate. The people in the resorts intentionally disassociate from the politics, and most of the people who visit there are not NH residents.

    Don't pretend to know something you don't know.

    So if you solemnly promise to never ever again write posts about Russia as you admit to having absolutely no clue about it and it shows in your posts, I will undertake to never discuss NH. You can't have it both ways, you know? LOL

    PS, do you know anything at all about computer hacking or cybersecurity? Or perhaps you have some legal background? Cause based on your logic you should refrain from posting on these topics, just as according to you I should refrain from discussing NH where I have indeed never lived. Agreed?

    You're the one who butted into my discussion with someone else, and rambled on about NH, when you don't know a thing about it other than "I've skied there".

    I wasn't posting about Russia, in this thread or elsewhere. I don't post about what Russians think or do. I never have. You posted things about NH politics that you know nothing about. I don't care if you want to keep embarrassing yourself pretending to know about NH politics because of "I ski!". Do whatever you want, and when you do, I will continue to point out your complete lack of any knowledge of the NH voters.

    Let me get that straight. You think it's fine for you to continue posting absolutely asinine absurd nonsense about Russia, hacking, cybersecurity, legal matters and other things that you admit to not having the slightest idea about (not that it's not obvious from your posts without your admission)... but I can't express my well informed and supported by analysis opinion that Trump may easily flip a state he lost by 0.3% because I am not a resident of that state?

    Jeez lady, are you all right?

    I don't post about hacking and cybersecurity. I post what is reported about the investigation into Russian meddling in the United States election. I don't post any legal opinions. I never have. I'm not a lawyer.

    You have no well informed opinion of New Hampshire residents and how they will vote and why. You have never lived in New Hampshire, you are not a New Hampshire resident, you've never voted in New Hampshire, you don't know anyone who is a state, local or national representative in New Hampshire, you don't know one thing about the New Hampshire media, you have never worked on a political campaign in New Hampshire, you have never attended a political rally in New Hampshire, and you never cast a vote there. Your "well informed" opinion does not exist. Don't post about something you don't know anything about and pretend you do. You will get called out on it. As you are now.

    Cut the nonsense, you post a million of your own opinions and other people opinions' matching yours on things and places you absolutely don't understand, you don't know the first thing about Russia, the FSB, their tactics, spying, recruiting methods, their MO, their methods of communication, payment schemes... You have zero knowledge and more than 3,500 posts on these topics.

    Just a moment ago you posted your opinion on whether Mexico will or will not pay for the wall, without ever living in Mexico. Somehow it's OK, but my view on Trump's easy possibility to flip NH which he lost by just 0.3% is somehow off limits? I bet having it both ways would be nice, lady.... Not going to work.

    How much more ignorant can your posts get?

    You can post what you think is going to happen in 2020 in NH based on exactly nothing. I'm basing my opinion on Mexico not paying for the wall (nice deflection, by the way) on 3 things - one is we have never ordered the President of a sovereign nation to pay for our infrastructure projects, two is we have no authority to do it, and three is Mexico already said no. That has nothing to do with you having a "well informed opinion" on over 1 million voters in a state you don't know anything about.

    I don't know anything about the Russian FSB, their tactics, their spying, their recruiting methods, their MO, their methods of communication, their payment schemes. I also never said I did. In fact, I never hinted about knowing them, and don't ever recall posting in threads about them. You can't find a single post from me offering a "well informed" opinion on any of those things. Unlike you, I don't pretend to know things.

    You were challenged by someone who knew you didn't know **** about NH politics. Next time be more careful jumping into discussions and being exposed for your lack of subject matter.

    -it's been trending Republican for more than a decade
    -it's fiercely independent and anti-establishment, so is Trump
    -it was awfully close in 2016, flipping 1,000 is not that difficult
    -sitting president always has a major advantage
    -NH is Vermont's neighbor and the Bernie's factor was quite strong, in all likelihood it won't be a factor in 2020

    Satisfied? Learn your lesson sweetheart, I will charge for the next one.

    NH has not been trending Republican for the last decade. For ****s sake, if you knew anything about the state the names Kelly Ayotte and Frank Guinta and John Sununu Junior and Scott Brown and Jeb Bradley and Craig Benson and George W. Bush in 2004 would mean something to you, and you would know how stupid that comment was as well as the "sitting president" comment.

    You know zero about New Hampshire for the reasons I already listed. Stop embarrassing yourself.
