He actually is. Time went by and people reflect more positively on his presidency / this has been documented in polls and approval ratings.

Plus, Harris is the incumbent and a large majority day the country is on the wrong track. So I think Trump wins.

After what they did to San Francisco it’s a good thing.

I don’t think most Americans give a cr*p about a dispute that’s been going on forever. Most Americans support Israel’s right to exists. This is a niche cause.

They have absolutely ZERO right to exist.

And shouldn’t.

You and those who keep making such opinions known are negatively impacting Harris' chance to win this election.

Bullcrap we are.

My analysis of whether Biden/Harris are to blame for the inflation is mostly "yes". She cast the deciding vote on a lot of spending, and that's inflationary for sure.

Trump will inherit an economy of delinquent bills and will be falsely blamed for a coming recession. However, if he exacerbates the situation with tariffs - that's his own stupid fault.

I’m so F’ing SICK AND TIRED of hearing people complaining about the price of groceries. That sh!t is so played out it’s pathetic.

And really, why are we placing so much power in the hands of low income earners who clearly haven’t achieved much in life and are now complaining that hamburger helper is too expensive? Gee, I dunno, maybe you should’ve applied yourself a bit more in school and made something of yourself so the price of groceries aren’t a backbreaker for you? So now you’re going to vote for trump because groceries are expensive and then we get Project 2025 and Handmaid’s Tale and probably world war 3 and irreversible climate change and Jews and LGBTQIA people all getting shipped off to death camps…. because poors voted for trump because groceries cost more.

FML….. this is such bullsh!t.

I just don’t see how the betting markets could get it that wrong. It’s 60-40 for Trump right now, but of course with two weeks to go things could change

Polymarket is owned by Peter Thiel, who is JD Vance's mentor and funder. There's a still-unexplained mass dump of $30 million that went into Polymarket to drive it to those numbers. The betting market has been manipulated.

And he sh!ts his pants constantly. Which is why he sits on a towel everywhere he goes, so he doesn’t ruin furniture.

It's a basic need. I'm sure your causes are less important than food.

Right now I think it's Trump.


Watching extermination squads go through Gaza with full US support and no object from the VP has totally taken away any enthusiasm and hope I felt back in August. This blind support of ethnic cleansing will cost the election. I know Trump won't be any better (in fact, will be worse), but the main push right now is for the youth and the apathetic. Neither of them will feel motivated based on the foreign policy of the current government.

It’s the huge spending after Covid-19 by
both parties that caused the inflation.

The winner is the person who consistently outperforms their poll numbers. In the end it comes down to a choice between performance and feelings, peace and prosperity vs hope and joy. Your 2024 winner is Donald Trump who will collect at least 295 electoral college votes.

I love those that are outraged about the Middle East saying they are voting for Trump.... Because he is a well-known ally of Palestine I guess. WTF.

We've got women's health issues to deal with here at home and there's only one candidate who is going to do a dang thing about that.

And the irony of course is all the jews here who will be voting for trump because they think he supports isreal are too stupid to realize that trump will be sending them to gas chambers by 2026, just like his hero Adolf did. I guess then they’ll feel some remorse for getting him elected.

Geez, as a little kid I was in love with Maggie Thatcher and didn't think twice about her being a woman. I loved the fact that she was a strong woman and handing the Argentineans their asses. LOL Ever since then I've just smirked at the "you're afraid of a strong woman" mentality.
