Who thinks Trump will win?

Hope the mods don't mind a new thread, but I just want to see how many of us think Trump will beat Biden in Nov?
I think he just has so much of a populist ground swell and I wouldn't be surprised if 'external' participants get involved in the process.

Do you think he'll get reelected?
Where will that leave America?

Hillary is an option again. Must think there is some chance of Biden getting arrested for treason in the next few weeks.

Protectionism rather than Isolationism... We are members of the EU which is all about protectionism too.

Bringing back the troops is bad now? I would have thought disengaging from foreign conflict is a good thing.

Regulated migration aka enforcing immigration law. As for the pictures of children in cages, That was debunked as fake news. It was actually from a protest. If you want open borders then change the law.

Tax cuts are perfectly in line with the small government approach that republican's advocate. There are strong arguments in favour of this approach.

Green energy is a scam and only works if propped up by massive subsidies. We should be striving for energy efficiency not more back door taxes.

Parents should have choice with regards their children's education. We do in Ireland as granted by the constitution.

You are in favour of big government and high taxes. A recipe for waste and more waste. People spending time on bureaucracy rather than productive work.

This is something I love about the whole Trump thing.
People hate him so much that anything he does is not right.

Before American was always meddling in other countries affairs, being the world's police man, and it was bad
But when Trump pulls back, suddenly that's bad because it creates a vacuum.

Same with immigration.
And amount of vitriol against immigrants that you hear day in day out in Ireland is shocking.
But when Trump tries to reform us immigration, he is evil.
It was funny a few years ago people in Ireland were up in arms that Trump was going to get rid of the J1 Visa in favor of trying to get employers to hire local people for the jobs they usually give to J1 kids

How shocking, trying to reduce unemployment locally in favor of giving jobs to well off foreign students.

It's fair to question both how accurate and how relevant the polls are, no doubt.

But cookies sold in a shop Eric Trump visited being a more accurate measurement? Come on FFS. Barely a primary school argument.

Yeah sorry. Just mean there is no logic to it. Like you say he may win and polls might be wrong. But looking at data we have looks like Biden may be ahead at the minute.

But Trump and his people don't do logic or facts. Science and all that stuff is just not their thing.

The praying will start soon.

It really needs a good terrorist attack.

You could always get odds on Hillary being president in 2020. You can also still get odds on Kanye West, Oprah Winfrey, Mark Zuckerberg, Michelle Obama etc.
Doesn't mean it's at all likely.

The more I watch Trump the more I think, hmmm maybe Kanye is not that a crazy an option.

In releasing his albums he has shown:
- talent (subjective obviously)
- the ability to learn, grow and embrace new ideas.
- the ability to collaborate and communicate his ideas to others
- a work ethic to get his plan over the line

And then I watch trump explain his Health Plan.

It's funny that this poll (on a lefty snowflake forum:P), is actually forecasting the likely result of this election more accurately than many other mainstream polls.

Although the confidence in a Trump win, does not appear to be well represented in the balance of comments. Much more people think Trump will win. But more of the people who don't, like to tell everyone about it... interesting!

It’s funny that you think an Internet forum poll on an Irish site represents the US electorate more than an actual US electorate poll...

Goes to show how desperate Trump voters are getting... grasping at straws.

Btw - not every boards poster would take part in a forum poll. Especially on US politics.

The left wing media projected a very strong win for Hilary and laughed at anyone thinking Trump had a chance. They never apologized for their terrible predictions on the TV.

The reality is Trump just has to hold on to the vote he won last time, and he's got a good chance of staying in. Biden is an old guard politician it's doubtful his bringing in new voters. The last election was about giving the establishment a good kicking, and its going to be interesting to see if the voters still hold the same prejudices this time around?

Trump a phenomenon and lot of Americans still like him. You can see crowds are still showing up to hear him speak. Active support great like this is good for Trump. People in isolated rural areas will wear the Trump gear and influence small communities to back Trump re-election. I'd be shocked if Biden wins. I think the supports isn't there, but the media will say it is. We'll see.

The rallies really are a mad idea from a strategic perspective. He's getting his base all crammed together sans masks so they can contract the virus in a time domain that could see them so sick on election day that they can't get out of bed to vote. Even if they're not severely ill, they could just feel fatigued and miserable while running a temperature.

When he needs every vote he can get, creating the possibility that he's losing a couple of percent of the attendance at each of these rallies from being able to mark their X on the day is just wild. :pac:

I think Biden will win the popular vote by a large distance but only narrowly win the college and it'll be stuck in the courts for months.

No they don't since it looks like the offending emails aren't even real... Plus no such meeting occurred. I'd say stick to polling by cookie sales.

Trump Undercuts Campaign Reset as He Weighs Prospect of Defeat

Donald Trump has begun openly acknowledging his precarious re-election chances, but is undercutting his own campaign’s attempts to tailor appeals to women and seniors as polls show them flocking toward Joe Biden.

Recent polls have shown Biden with growing leads nationally and in key battleground states, an advantage driven largely by erosion in Trump’s support among women and people 65 and older. Trump’s campaign has begun running more ads aimed at seniors, and hopes some of the loss can be offset by gains among Latino and Black voters.

But the campaign’s efforts to reverse the trends face a headwind: Trump himself. The president has undercut the outreach to seniors by continuing to downplay the coronavirus outbreak and by mocking Biden’s age.

He’s tested what support he still enjoys from women by unloading particularly pointed attacks on Biden’s running mate, Kamala Harris, and by mocking Hillary Clinton’s failure to crack the “glass ceiling” on the White

I was actually worried Trump would win again until I read about Rupert Murdoch thinking he'll lose. I think there quite literally would be no one more in the know and with better resources and contacts.

Trump will win comfortably electoral college-wise. Popular vote could be anything. For America's sake I hope it isn't close
