Maybe, but just remember that everything Trump is doing right now - while unpopular in coastal cities - is tremendously popular among rural and rust belt voters.
Yes, but this is the crowdpleasing stuff. Once congress gets to work on healthcare and 'entitlements' that could savage affection these people have for the Republicans. Somebody reminded me of the upstate NY special election in the middle of Obama s first term that was held amidst discussions on entitlement and it resulted in a very embarrassing loss for the republicans, all things considered.
Anyway, I don't really know how it will go. I have no faith in the ability of Democrats, so for all we know trump will be at outright Hollande levels and still the dems lose a bunch of seats. All I know is that if Hillary had narrowly scraped in, 2018 would be an outright nightmarish obliteration of historic proportions.
