    I agree she would very likely lose if she did primary him, but I imagine that’s still something the establishment dems don’t want to see happen. Just causes more fighting within the party

    Weird how the final step of the Trump loyalty test is saying he never lost re-election after losing so badly

    Y'all think Schumer would destroy AOC in a primary? Any polling to support that?

    do y’all really think Wall Street would let AOC even breathe in the general direction of being Senator?

    Based on what I hear from people in New York, I think it would be very close but AOC would probably win. Very few people really like Schumer and, while there are probably more people who dislike AOC, I do think she would generate enough enthusiasm to win. Haven't seen any polling one way or another though

    As right as he is, at this point I wish he wouldn't say things like this. It just gives people the cover to say "see, the count is rigged. Trump could technically still win but they're already saying he lost."

    A poll by Zogby Analytics earlier this year for the hypothetical matchup showing Schumer up 54-21%. The accuracy of that is likely low. I don't think it would be a blowout by any means but I don't think she would win. Would be interesting to see what would happen if she did challenge though, who would endorse her, etc.

    People are so fucking dumb. I feel sorry for those guys doing their job, just having to deal with so many of these fucking morons without telling them to fuck off would give me an aneurism.

    I think they would gladly see AOC get crushed in a primary vs just willingly giving her one of most powerful political positions in New York

    Yeah this sounds nice but hinges on Schumer/Cuomo not absolutely hating AOC and everything she stands for

    do we think trump is that stupid that he just concocts these scenarios in his head or shares misinformation actually believing it?

    There's no way he's sitting around looking for this stuff himself. An advisor or aide or whatever probably shared this with him (knowing that it's B.S.) and said "Retweet this, it's evidence that there's fraud."

    He probably doesn't bother asking twice, and they know that it'll keep him "happy" to just keep sharing it so they do.

    I have no doubt that he believes it to be true. But I would bet that those around him know that it's all a fantasy... And they're evil enough to go along with the spreading of misinformation.
