I saw Miami-Dade county was light red. If Trump wins the popular vote it would be very narrowly, and it would be through large gains in Florida and Texas, as well as making ground up in California and New York. Remember, if Trump even comes within two million votes behind Kamala, it’s an EC tossup, if Kamala loses the popular vote by even 2,000 votes it’s a red landslide. Unfortunately there’s just too many Democrat NPCs that swamp the vote, so I see it as very unlikely.
 
Dave Greene did a stream a few weeks ago where he made what I thought was a really good point about the purpose of elections. He completely agrees with @Null about voting being a total waste of time from the perspective of choosing a leader, and says that his last vote he will ever cast was (stupidly) for Evan McMuffin. However his thesis is that the point of elections from the perspective of the ruling class, is that it allows them to see where the electorate stands, and to make the judgment of whether or not what they want to do has the makings of a viable ruling coalition. He then makes the (imo correct) assertion that the Democrat's coalition this time looks MUCH more pathetic than it did 4 years ago.

It doesn't necessarily mean we're fucked; seems like he's trying to light a fire under people's asses. It'd be worse if he were saying, "it's in the bag!"
There's a fine line between motivating and dooming, and Kirk has been on the wrong side of that line a few times the last few weeks. But I'm not convinced he even wants Trump to win. He's another opportunist like Ben Shapiro who would rather go back to the Romney/Jeb era.
