Trump takes the rustbelt, FL, NH, and most of Maine, but Clinton carries GA, AZ, SD, UT, and WV for a 273-265 win.

You already woke up and are not daydreaming.

Well, since Clinton clearly vowed to convert to coal and opposed any domestic content requirement for automakers, I might just move to WV. (If MI goes GOP, so will Macomb County).

I don't know what is more ridiculous - Clinton winning WV or Trump winning NH.

Sigh.

TRUMP winning NH is entirely possible. 35-40% chance.

I'd be asking myself what caused safe Republican South Dakota and West Virginia to flip to Clinton, while Trump somehow won Florida despite the Hispanic vote and Maine, despite being strong Clinton territory?

Clinton announced an economic development plan that includes major wind power construction which would be a boon to landowners in the Great Plains.  Somehow someone invents an economical coal-fire power plant with total carbon capture, and Clinton is able to promise West Virginians that coal production will continue for generations.  Trump in frustration called everyone in WV a bunch of fat, Marlboro-smoking, pickup-driving, shotgun-toting, inbred degenerates.

Clinton also pledged to ban fracking on the first day in office (bye-bye, PA), and require all domestic cars be electric by 2024.

In the debates Trump totally slammed Clinton on Cuba-US relations.

Jimmy Carter died a week before the election and made a deathbed plea to all Georgians to support Clinton?

And wind energy somehow manages to flip South Dakota but not other Great Plains states or even NE-2?  Yeah, this map strains all credulity.

IceSpear and TNV would probably lose their minds. I'd find it ridiculous that Trump won NC but lost GA, did extremely well in the rust belt, but still lost IA, somehow lost ME but won AZ/UT, and so on. I would start to actually believe that there is a large contingency of happy SD farmers who love Hillary, though.

South Dakota always votes for Clinton in the primary.

The angry NH women took over WV and imprisoned the racist WV hicks in their former homeland, but for some reason did not revoke their voting rights.

Trump would still win WV by double digits in this scenario. At least he didn't work for a black guy.

Too bad Hillary stepped down after being exposed by HA Goodman, but at least the Democrats compromised and nominated Daschle/Tomblin as the ticket. I was not expecting that to work.
