My picks are below. I am accounting for potential cheating otherwise would say blowout. I almost added Texas for Biden which would push him to 347.

If anything this weekend's events confirms what we knew - with hundreds of tzees blocking traffic in NJ and those in Texas harassing the Biden/Harris campaign team by surrounding their bus. These traitors are sad little a$$holes who never felt heard, who were never breast fed as babies and never took their coats off in high school. They consider themselves victims, the outsiders. These people with resentments are losers in a meritocratic society. Instead of seeing the origin of their weaknesses and dealing with it, they let themselves be overcome by fear of some non-english speaking hispanic refugee with an 8th grade level education. It is ok because the potus also blames those people right. Instead of seeing trump con them openly like this and unite with other americans, they prefer to succumb to their hatred.

This is mostly the sad consequence of the GOP's inability to successfully govern. They should be touting their accomplishments under trump in comparison to Dems, but they can't so instead they help trump throw gas at a bunch of r@cists and welcome domestic terrorism. They are doing this openly with the exception of the 1 or 2 RINOs that have a backbone and job left.

You Dementia Joe supporters upset at the Trump trucks driving near the Biden bus in Texas need to first prove you were outraged at BLM/Antifa who shot the 3 Trump supporters in the head in Portland, Denver and Milwaukee before pretending to be upset about people driving. Also, have you seen the full clip of the Texas driving “incident”? It was the Biden car leaving its lane to hit the truck.

The late great Molly Ivins wrote this back in the 90's. This is why the Democrats lost white men without a college degree:

A large segment of Limbaugh’s audience consists of white males, 18 to 34 years old, without college education. Basically, a guy I know and grew up with named Bubba.

Bubba listens to Limbaugh because Limbaugh gives him someone to blame for the fact that Bubba is getting screwed. He’s working harder, getting paid less in constant dollars and falling further and further behind. Not only is Bubba never gonna be able to buy a house, he can barely afford a trailer. Hell, he can barely afford the payments on the pickup.

And because Bubba understands he’s being shafted, even if he doesn’t know why or how or by whom, he listens to Limbaugh. Limbaugh offers him scapegoats. It’s the “feminazis.” It’s the minorities. It’s the limousine liberals. It’s all these people with all these wacky social programs to help some silly, self-proclaimed bunch of victims. Bubba feels like a victim himself—and he is—but he never got any sympathy from liberals.

Psychologists often tell us there is a great deal of displaced anger in our emotional lives—your dad wallops you, but he’s too big to hit back, so you go clobber your little brother. Displaced anger is also common in our political life. We see it in this generation of young white men without much education and very little future. This economy no longer has a place for them. The corporations have moved their jobs to Singapore. Unfortunately, it is Limbaugh and the Republicans who are addressing the resentments of these folks, and aiming their anger in the wrong direction.
