Washington (CNN) In the wake of a recent "Keep America Great" rally in Minneapolis, President Donald Trump tweeted this: "We are going to fight with all of our heart and soul and we are going to win the great state of Minnesota in 2020." But probably not actually, at least according to a new poll conducted for the Minneapolis Star Tribune and released Monday. Those wide margins are a far cry from Trump's near-miss in Minnesota in 2016 when he lost by 44,000 votes out of more than 2.6 million cast -- one of the closest margins in the country. Even so, these poll numbers have to put something of a damper on the Trump campaign's much-publicized hopes of putting Minnesota in their column. That same Star Tribune poll put Trump's job approval at just 40%, a very tough starting place to begin a winning campaign.
