If Trump can win PA, OH, and FL (and hold the usual red states) then he’ll win the election.
VA, WI, IA, and CO would be a nice bonus but are not necessary.
That’s exactly what I’ve been saying! We don’t need to win VA if we win those three.
Yep. Here’s a good site for playing around with the electoral map:

Ceding IA, WI, CO, and VA would be a gigantic mistake. What with Joni Ernst, Scott Walker having worked WI into being a more purple state, and Colorado and Virginia being regarded as winnable battlegrounds.
The numbers say to me that voters are not terribly enthusiastic about either of them.
Yup, this article sums it up: http://www.redstate.com/streiff/2016/07/14/poll-shocker.-americans-prefer-shoot-face-rather-vote-trump-clinton/
These polls must be false, because as we’ve been repeatedly told by the cognoscenti, Trump can’t win.
