biggest electoral college wins
Ousted White House arch architect Stephen Bannon batten at the anniversary Values Voter Acme on Saturday, declaring his confidence that President Trump, who batten at the acme Friday, will win a additional appellation by a barrage in 2020.
"The populist, nationalist, bourgeois defection that's activity on, that collection Donald Trump to achievement ... that will drive 15 candidates to achievement in 2018" will abide unabated, Bannon argued. "I abhorrence to breach it Graydon Carter and the acceptable association at Vanity Fair," he continued, "but yes, President Trump is not alone activity to accomplishment this term, he's activity to win with 400 balloter votes in 2020."
The Vanity Fair advertence was an allusion to the magazine's contempo report, citation an bearding source, that "Bannon has told bodies he thinks Trump has alone a 30 percent adventitious of authoritative it the abounding term." Carter is Vanity Fair's approachable editor.
A 400-vote win is not historically inconceivable: 14 presidential elections accept apparent the champ booty 400 or added balloter votes. Ronald Reagan won with 525 balloter votes, the better calculation ever, in 1984; and George Washington accustomed all accessible votes in both of his elections (though the absolute cardinal of electors was abundant lower again because there were beneath states). However, such a win is acutely doubtful if Trump's approval ratings abide in the mid-30s.
