Trump and his followers own social media right now, so they have a massive advantage there. For that reason I think Trump has the inside track to 270, with probably 302 being the final count.
Having said all of that, there could be some problems brewing for Trump that could dramatically shift the needle. Number one, Trump is already laying the groundwork for a challenge in Pennsylvania, so they must have some inside data that shows them trailing there and likely to lose. Number two, the Puerto Rican vote becomes important. Florida has a big population of Puerto Rican voters, as does Pennsylvania, which could swing this vote in close Florida and Pennsylvania races. We already know Pennsylvania is in play, but it appears that Florida may have just been dragged into the mix as a state up for grabs. If Florida and Pennsylvania fall off the Trump train, Harris will win unless she collapses in Wisconsin and Michigan.
That's a lot of things that have to fall in Harris' favor. It is possible, but I still think Trump is going win by an electoral college edge and lose ugly in popular vote.

You are buying right into what he wants you to think. He has media outlets and polls putting him ahead because if they don't and he wins he will cancel them out and they will be out of business. Trump is going to lose and he is going to lose badly which is exactly what he is hoping for. Donald Trump does not want to win on election night by vote count, he wants to make his place in history by claiming the polls showed he was way ahead in every state and the only reason he lost is voter fraud. He doesn't want to win the election, he wants to overturn it and take power that way. He has already started by claiming mass voter fraud in Pennsylvania already. Why do you think he has people saying such deplorable things at his rall in NYC? Do you think he didn't know what was going to be said about Porta Rico? It is all part of his game. Trump is a narcissist, winning by overturning the election cements him in history. In the upcoming days he will put out more posts about voter fraud, so will other Republican supporters and right wing media. On election day he will declare victory early and then he will declare the election was stolen when he starts losing badly. Don't kid yourself, it will work too if he can make Congress or SCOTUS decide the outcome he will accomplish it too.
