Again, nobody is claiming Trump's win was historical.   And its not absurd to claim a landslide is a landslide. It's basic math -- 304 to 227 is a landslide, no matter what happened in 1892 or 2008.

Bringing up past elections results is meaningless. Yes Obama won with bigger margins but there were fewer voters and there were no Super-PACs until the 2012 election.  And the 2012 election was marked by low Republican voter turnout. Again, all the "data wizards" based their election forecasts on the 2012 election turnout which is why all their forecasts of a Clinton victory were wrong.

I think we can both agree that Trump had the biggest win by a Republican in the modern electoral era (i.e., since Super-PACs were allowed in 2010).
