(TNS) Whether it’s because of the recent impeachment attempt, constant assault by the Deep State and media, or his MAGA policies — perhaps a combo of all three — supporters who want to show love to President Donald Trump continue to break political records during his historic presidency.
And he did so again on Super Tuesday.
If you really want to know what destroys the sanity of Democrats and worsens Trump Derangement Syndrome among ‘conservatives’ like Bill Kristol and Mitt Romney, it’s stuff like this: Trump smashed voter turnout records for incumbent presidents like a boss.
Reports earlier this week notedthat the president’s Texas turnout was record-breaking, but according to Kayleigh McEnany, the National Press Secretary for the Trump campaign, the president made history in several other states as well:
In Vermont, you had President Trump beating the vote totals of all past incumbents in the last four decades. In Colorado, turnout was higher than the last three GOP primaries combined. And in Maine, beating the vote totals of all past primary candidates in the last four decades yet again. These are states that are blue states and President Trump is prevailing.
The energy is on our side. Nobody’s talking about it now. But they’re going to wake up very surprised on November 3, 2020.
The untold story of Super Tuesday is President @realDonaldTrumpTROUNCING the vote totals of all past incumbents in BLUE states!
The energy is on our side, and the media is going to wake up very surprised on November 3, 2020!
And, per the Trump War Room, here are some comparison figures between incumbent Trump and incumbent Obama:
Alabama
Obama: 241,167
Trump: 708,883
Arkansas
Obama: 94,936
Trump: 237,792
Iowa
Obama: 25,000
Trump: 31,464
Massachusetts
Obama: 127,909
Trump: 229,717
New Hampshire
Obama: 49,080
Trump: 129,696
Oklahoma
Obama: 64,330
Trump: 273,562
Tennessee
Obama: 80,705
Trump: 384,034
Texas
Obama: 518,138
Trump: 1,907,342
McEnany added the “evident enthusiasm for Trump was made clear in red states, in swing states, even in blue states on Tuesday evening, indicating that the Republican Party is more unified than ever before and is growing in numbers.”
Then there is the attendance at Trump rallies by self-described Democrats, which campaign manager Brad Parscale tracks very carefully. On average, Democrat attendance is about 23 percent, which is astounding. A fair number say they didn’t vote in 2016, while others haven’t cast a ballot in either of the last two presidential elections.
And yet, they’re showing up a Trump rallies. As Red State reported recently, “Mind-Blowing! 58% Of Attendees at Trump’s Wisconsin Rally Were NOT Republicans, Up from 43% in Ohio.”
