We're told that Dem internals show Harris failing, there's talk of them replacing Walz and or Harris, yet this defies all explanation.

100% this is social media generated.

WTF is going on is that Trump is a historically unpopular candidate who is about to lose the popular vote for the third time. This was masked when the opposition was a dementia patient, but now it’s a vibrant, smiling, positive candidate. Maybe Trump can force Kamala into extemporaneous speaking, and maybe she turns out to be as incompetent as we hope, but if not, Trump will be slaughtered in the popular vote, and he will have to hope for a narrow electoral victory. ETA: What TrueTiger says in the post just above is 100% correct.


Are you going to start prepping or do think Harris and the Marxist machine are going to save America from bankruptcy and self destruction?


People are stupidly naive believing in big government

Trump talks about taking a knife to big government

Harris talks about expanding and restricting business and energy

By his own standards, and relative to Kamala right now, he isn't

Makes zero sense.



Makes perfect sense when you realize the vast majority of people in this country blindly follow whatever Hollywood and MSM tell them. The worst thing that ever happened was when social media told the low IQ loser demographic who never really voted before that all of sudden it was cool to be an “intellectual” and for a lot of these people the only thing they ever equated to being “smart” was watching the news. Once the media giants saw they had a captive audience that’s when it went from skew in one direction or the other to full on propaganda mode that the masses have been lapping up ever since.

Last night was a good step. Let’s see if he can continue.

I don’t put a ton of stock in polls, but the betting markets are a different animal IMO.
Betting markets suck. Hillary was the clear favorite until about 8pm election night. Those betting markets often vary wildly on the day if the election in many many cases. What they tell you is who the public perceives as winning, not how people are voting. And, currently with the media blitz and message shaping they are doing for kamala along with a relatively quiet week past for Trump, it's no surprise that the polls and markets have her ahead. Wait a week to see how last night's Elon interview plays because it won't be reflected in many polls coming out over the next few days. If the pattern holds, the general polls wrapped up their polls on Sunday.

Should not even be within 10%, including giving the thieves credit for 10 million illegal votes.
Is half the country really mentally deranged and out of touch with any sense of reality? NO.

Agreed. That was huge to stem the tide. Everyone is talking about it. I'm not sure what he should do during the DNC convention. Maybe some podcasts, like OML suggests.

, when the betting markets were 65% for Trump a month ago no one was saying that.

He won in 2016 by dominating the national attention span. He didn’t do that by running traditional campaign ads.

Honestly, you cannot be naive enough to believe that garbage.

The polls are garbage.

The media narratives are garbage. Two months ago the media didn’t like Kamala, now she’s the goat? They’ve become corrupt propaganda machines.

I just don't understand why he almost doesn't seem to care about branding Kamala. That's the only task that matters right now and he refuses to do it.

IIRC, the betting markets were much closer than other prognosticators for 2016.

If the coordinated media was smart, they'd stop reporting on Trump (good or bad).

A sucker and his money will soon be parted. Amazing how people do not understand how betting works.
