It's happening!

You expect her to leave those states undefended in the final stretch when she has more than enough resources to do so while working on others?

When his candidate has essentially been losing the entire election cycle, it's not surprising that he would immediately latch onto the most beneficial, pro-Trump reasoning he can derive from it while labeling any other reasons as "spin."

It's a week from election day. He needs to believe she is panicking over likely/safe states. He needs it bad. Let's just let him have this one.

Actually, [some] of those states might be a tipping point if the race will have tighten a bit according to *538's model. I wouldn't call it panicking, of course. It is though not like she do it, because she can, but because she has to [possible tightening is not that unlikely].

* Never mind, if you think Nate is clickbait/looser etc.

Yes, I mean it's a possibility but personally I don't see the states she is putting money in as serious issues right now, and I doubt she does either.

Also worth noting is that in addition to proactively defending from Trump's recent moves, all those states have either hard-fought competitive Congressional races and/or legislature chamber(s) Democrats are pining to take back this year. They all would benefit from good Clinton numbers.
