Donald Trump‘s team is predicting he’ll sweep through Georgia, North Carolina and Wisconsin en route to an election night win.
Just a short time ago, North Carolina went to Trump, but journalist Mark Halperin is claiming the president’s ‘boiler room’ is predicting much more success in the Rust Belt and Sun Belt.
The president’s ‘boiler room’ is predicting more success in the Rust Belt and Sun Belt.
‘When a boiler room says to the senior staff that they’re gonna win this state, they believe it,’ he says of the Trump camp.
He adds that they are certain of victories in those three states at the very least.
‘The Trump campaign’s kind of backroom view is we’re ahead and we’re gonna win these states because the urban vote isn’t big enough, the rural vote is huge and her lead from the early vote was not big enough.’

Halperin – who has co-authored several books on elections – cited elected officials and even some Democrats who believed it was over, in addition to Mar-a-Lago insiders.
He also pointed out Harris’ poor performance in New Hampshire and Virginia.
Halperin also believes that the networks aren’t going to provide anything definitive until later in the night.
His findings echo that of Trump insider Kellyanne Conway in DailyMail.com earlier Tuesday.
She writes: ‘When I spoke with President Trump today, I heard the same hopeful, never-haughty, candidate that’s typically the last to think he will win.
‘Smitten by 2016, bitten by 2020, he has relied upon rallies, his record, and new tools like podcasts to make his case.
‘He knows he has done his part by showing up and speaking up in towns and cities across this nation.
‘He trusts the voters to do the same for him. Concerns over weakness and wokeness, immigration and inflation, all favor the ex-president.
‘People want change and Kamala represents more of the same. Trump is expanding geographically (gaining in rural counties compared to 2020) and demographically (up among black men in Georgia).
‘Let’s see if holding his own in suburban, bellwether counties in the Sun Belt –where Harris runs up the margins – happens in the Rust Belt, where this election will be decided.’
Donald Trump has won the critical swing state of North Carolina and its 16 Electoral College votes in a pivotal moment in the election.
The Tar Heel state was a key target of both campaigns and was the site of frenzied campaigning in the final days of the race.
Democrats haven’t claimed victory in North Carolina since Barack Obama in 2008.
Trump won in the last two elections and the victory is a major boost for the Republican nominee.
More than 4.2 million North Carolinians voted early before Election day, breaking the record turnout in 2020.
