Would an expert in #politics please riddle me this:
How can a #Trump victory in #Iowa, or #NewHampshire for that matter, be a “landslide” when the caucus vote for Trump in Iowa was 56,000 people in a small, rural state? (NH is different but also largely irrelevant.)
Still the press labeled Iowa a major victory even though it represents 0.016% (!!) of the population.
