| Rush: Real reason Trump soaring in battleground states |
| 2019-03-19 |
| [WND] A new polls shows President Trump’s popularity is soaring in the key battleground states of Pennsylvania, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin. He leads a generic Democratic nominee in those states 46 percent to 40 percent, according to a Wall Street Journal survey. Talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh told his listeners Monday it’s not hard to understand why. Voters in those states like the "ongoing economic renaissance" they are experiencing. "This wasn’t supposed happen. Trump was supposed to barely be above 30 now," he said. But those states are "all thriving under the president’s pro-growth economic policies," the Pittsburgh Tribune Review reports. "Indeed, Trump’s economic agenda has had a profound effect on Pennsylvania: The state’s 4 percent unemployment rate is now the lowest it’s been in nearly two decades, and the economy continues to add new jobs at a dizzying pace," the paper said. |

| #5 Considering that the unions have been trying to force mandatory fees and losing with membership plummeting, I would give the now ex-union members the benefit of the doubt. |

| #4 Expecting intelligent behavior from union members is a big stretch... |

| #3 In normalish election cycles, I would agree with you. But this is not normal times and the unions have been devastated in the rust belt. Work returning for these people after they voted for Trump will continue as long as the work does, IMHO. The demoncratic part is broken there and with the current crop of insane leftist candidates, I don't see the workers returning to the fold so to speak. |

| #2 No. The short memory of voters will decide things were always so good and moar Clinton and Obutthole is the answer... |

| #1 People usually vote about the beans on their plate. And currently, there are a lot of beans after years of few. If things are still good economically in Nov. 2020, Trump will be very hard to beat. |
