Take a look at almost any state where Clinton underperformed Obama and you& #39;ll see that her numbers dropped more than Trump& #39;s numbers gained.

MI -- Trump gained from 45 to 47, but Clinton dropped from 54 to 47

WI -- Trump gained from 45 to 47, but Clinton dropped from 52 to 46 https://twitter.com/NilesGApol/status/1282762626796261379">https://twitter.com/NilesGApo...

I can do more of this.

ND -- Trump gains from 58 to 62, but Clinton drops from 38 to 27 (!)

TN -- Trump gains from 59 to 61, but Clinton drops from 39 to 34

SC -- Trump stays put at 54, but Clinton drops from 44 to 40

MT -- Trump stays at 55, but Clinton drops from 42 to 35

The only state where Clinton& #39;s numbers stayed put from 2012 but Trump& #39;s numbers dropped? Arizona.

And, dare I say, it& #39;s telling about Clinton& #39;s weakness as a candidate that in a state perfectly suited to reject Trump, all she could do was crawl from 44.45% to 44.58%.

What& #39;s my point? That in an environment looking to be significantly less third-party than 2016, all Biden really has to do is claw back the 3-4% Clinton dropped that caused her collapse in the rust belt. And as of now, he& #39;s more than doing that.
