+1 wouldn’t be surprised at all if he only won Iowa by 2-3 instead of the higher margins he got in 2016 and 2020. |
Since we know MAGA always projects what it is doing on others, that must explain all the strong Trump polling. One of the techbros paying out big money to put out those polls? |
Reagan won 46 states and 489 EVs in 1980. |
Which would still point to Harris over performing nationwide… and a clean win for her. |
Wouldn’t surprise me one iota |
Lots of Americans are smart and thoughtful. Trump is a turnoff to conservatives. A point that MAGA doesn’t understand. Some will hold their noses, but who wants to be associated with the Trump dumpster fire at this point? |
It’s already been reported that Polymarket is being manipulated by a few big players. |
+1. Sitting here in Kansas absolutely surrounded by Harris signs (and, no, not in Lawrence). People are tired of his schtick and women here are appalled, including many of the 40-something traditional R voters I know. She probably will not win the state and may not win Iowa either, but these trends suggest potential blowouts elsewhere. I do not want to get my hopes up but at the same time, can’t deny the momentum. Fingers crossed! |
Isn't John Deere moving out of Iowa for Mexico?
https://www.hoosieragtoday.com/2024/08/09/john-deere-layoffs-moving-jobs-to-mexico/ Thanks, Kamala/Biden for working to keep jobs in the US. I'm not sure I believe this poll. |
Twist, twist, pretzel, pretzel. |
Desperation setting in here. We all remember how many manufacturing jobs disappeared under Trump. |
In case it’s not clear I am hoping this poll is correct. I would love Harris to win Iowa. (I realize I used the words “coastal elites”which is a term that many Rs use — but it feels accurate because many coastal folks are, in fact, elite and also can be very disparaging toward the so-called “flyover” states.) The Iowans I have known are wonderful. It has pained me to see MAGA make such headway there. The world will make more sense to me if Iowa finally defeats Trumpism. |
That all started with Trump's tariffs which jacked up their costs. Harley Davidson and others began moving some of their production offshore as well - on Trump's watch, because of Trump policies. Biden-Harris has been fighting to bring it back. |
Trump is a terrible candidate. Truly just the worst pick. I’m not saying Harris will definitely win Iowa or nationally. But someone like Haley would be running away with it.
Bad move, GOP. |
A democrat just told me Harris is going to win Florida and Iowa. Not sure where this surge is coming from but I don’t buy it. |
