states are winner take all, are they not? yeah, exactly. there are some proportional, but donald trump has been changing that. there s no way you can get to a majority this way. i think the thinking is right maybe we stay around because if there s negotiation that has to happen they have a stronger hand. it mostly speaks to donald trump s strength and just how desperatethies these campaigns are and how few outs they feel like they have. you mention mike pence, for example. vivek they want somebody maga and vivek is trying to offer a pale imitation of trump.
