[TPIG]

Donald Trump/Scott Brown - 306 EVs/63,032,268 - 48.1%
Hillary Clinton/Tim Kaine - 232 EVs/63,366,418 - 48.3%

Played as Donald Trump on normal difficulty. Trump got the same number of electoral votes as in the real 2016 election, just with Michigan and Maine's 2nd CD subtracted and Virginia and New Hampshire added.

Ran as Mitt Romney on normal difficulty. I chose semi-moderate answers on issues like healthcare, trade, and immigration, while going as a hard-line social conservative. It worked (better than 90.4%).

The only way I was able to win as Romney is by giving all "moderate" answers or playing on easy mode.  They also make it impossible to win as George HW Bush unless you go aggressively negative (which is not the only reason he won IRL).

What I find impossible is winning as Ford in 76 on any difficulty other than easy. I've tried so many different answers, but nothing works.

Romney as a center-right, broad-coalition candidate on Normal difficulty:

Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan - 337 EVs/51.6% PV
Barack Obama/Joe Biden - 201 Evs/47.5% PV

Better than 99.8% of games with Romney on this difficulty. If only this could have happened in real life
