I've read through all the comments here, and Trump's "landslide" in Nevada was him winning less than 3% of the voters in that state.

It is true that in a general election, only about 20% of Americans turn out to vote... but I don't see Trump having a smooth adoption curve across that entire voting populace.

Of course, we are media-controlled animals. And Trump knows this. The more his election seems "inevitable", the more people will vote for him simply because "everyone else is".

(Imagine I inserted a link to a psychologists' student project, where he sent people onto the subway specifically to ask people to give up their seats... and the vast majority of people did, without argument. People are sheeple.)

The article makes a very strong point that Hillary doesn't win against Trump, simply because the differences are minor details to the rest of us, who are more concerned with commuting, picking the kids up from school, whether the milk in the fridge is spoiled, etc.

And now, in my state and several others, we don't even have the pomp and circumstance of going to a polling place and voting in person. We get a piece of mail, make a mark on it, and try to find a mailbox to drop it into. There's no gravitas to voting any more.

So... shit... fill in the circle, try to find a mailbox somewhere. Who gives a shit which circle I filled in? I have to get across town in traffic to blah de blah blah, and if I detour over there, I'm just gonna get caught in game day traffic snarl, so I'll just... oops. The ballot fell under the passengers' seat. Shit. I'll get it... later.
