Trumps own people are saying she will get a bump for the next few weeks but it will dissipate over time - nothing today really matters

It's almost like Trump was only winning because Biden was old.

You knew it was coming after that debate. Face it, you aren't mad that Democrats threw Biden overboard, you are just surprised that his replacement has been able to do as well as she has despite being a veritable idiot.

The betting odds will shift as the polls shift.

Trump is in good shape. He is currently behind Harris in the RCP by only 0.4.

At this time in 2016 he was behind Hillary by 8.8 points.

At this time in 2020 he was behind Biden by 7.4 points.



Right now I would bet a lot of dark money is flowing into the betting markets on behalf of Harris to manipulate an outcome. Generally, Republicans are not this manipulative. Republicans do not have control of the main stream news media, deep state agencies, foreign governments in cahoots with the State Department and CIA, etc.

Orange man is a fricking loon. I will vote for him because I cant have a clear conscious voting for the vision the left has......but him handing this election to them is just another reason I hate him and the RNC almost as bad.

You expect us to believe you’re an independent? I guess the alternative of admitting that you are a white male liberal is shameful.

Been trying to tell y’all but the trumpeters refuse to believe what is happening before their eyes

Trump has got to stay on message and stop going off cue. Stop poking his finger in the Georgia governors eye.

He’s running against the weakest democrat ticket I have ever seen and this race is actually close

If he loses, this is the reason why. His main priorities seem to be negatively attacking Kamala (will have n positive effect,) attacking Republicans and crying about the 2020 election.

Exactly, and unfortunately he doesnt even do a good job of addressing his own issues. But here we are with him, going to insure a Harris win and God knows what happens on her coattails. Supreme Court will be expanded. That is the number one issue. Debt will skyrocket. And the world will be in turmoil for 8 addtl years. And the left will just gift more and more money to special interests to buy every vote they need to keep it going as long as they can.

This is what happens when you go full Lincoln Project. Donald Trump has done Adin Ross and Elon Musk interviews within a week of each other. He's reaching out to people who have no loyalty or ties whatsoever to the Republican Party. The man is the only Republican not named Bush to win a Presidential election in the last 40 years. He sure as hell has earned the benefit of the doubt. But keep thinking the Mitt Romney's and Paul Ryan's of the party will save you. And as Gumbo has pointed out, he's never been in as good of a position as he is right now from a polling standpoint.

I see this is the room with the "I'm a conservative, but Trump is bad" posters.

I’m voting for Trump 100% and feel like he has to win in order to save our way of life….however, if Trump loses this I’ll be one of those Ronbots reminding folks that the “safe” nominee would have regained us the WH.

And no, just because a candidate wins the primary doesn’t mean he/she was best suited for the general.

Trump is different. He elicits a reaction from Independents and Dems unseen from any R nominee….which in turn motivates their base. We don’t want their base voting.

He's his own worst enemy, but he isn't a loon. None of his policy proposals are loony.

Yep, nothing is going to change under Trump. His base is capped, he doesnt know how to grow it.

Evern if he wins he's not going to get cooperation due to his antagonism.
