Harris Vs Trump 2024 US Presidential election - read the warning in the OP posted 18/09/24

Explain what peace would look like rather than vaguely pointing to it being possible. Russia retaining territories leads to genocide.

That actually caused me physical pain. Not fair and I was just russian out the door too.

Good analysis eeepaulo - I would caution though about baselining against 2020 given the extraordinary circumstances.

2024 might just be a normal election, in terms of how and when people choose to vote.

Yes I know it’s the daily mail and they’re totally anti Harris at this stage however - the general thrust of the article is highlighting black people and why theyre voting for Trump.
There’s been a consistent posting here on the election threads saying “Maga voters will be maga voters there’s no turning them” - and that’s fine I get that- but I bet those posters who kept saying that didn’t have these African American gentlemen in mind when they thought of maga supporters - it just shows the dumbed down messages have reached the less informed people of America who weren’t natural MAGA supporters in the first place.

Also, and feel free to disagree but the end part of the article highlights what Harris/Trump were rated highly for throughout the election - it’s my understanding also - certainly Trump has led on economy and security from the outset and I posted as much many months ago -

It really doesn’t matter a damn what route people are going through in order to decide to vote Republican /Trump - family tradition, wanting change, inherently racist, scared and fearful, poor , misinformed , easily led - yep all of the above - the fact is, it’s becoming apparent that a lot more than just the “MAGA supporters” are now doing so.

I always looked at how some laughed and sneered at Trumps efforts at rallies etc , as an indication of just how little they understood what was happening-

Trump fries weren’t served up the other day for no reason - I’d say Trump gained many voters with that stunt - you can laugh all you wish on how stupid it may have looked but Trump is serious about taking the White House - he doesn’t know what humour is - and if he’s serving up fries in McDonalds then you better believe that it will only be beneficial for Trump.

“While Harris enjoys a healthy 14 point advantage from Latinos, it's much lower margin than past Democratic presidential candidates.

President Joe Biden had a 36 point lead with Latinos in 2020 and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had a healthy 50 point lead over Trump. 

Former President Barack Obama had a 39-point lead over former Governor Mitt Romney.

Trump earned higher marks than Harris on the economy, dealing with inflation and the cost of living, and border security and controlling immigration.

Harris earned more positive ratings for competence, honesty, and having the right temperament to be president.

Overall, 77 percent of voters in the poll said the economy was fair or poor, while just 23 percent described it as excellent or good.”

A touch of reality

Trump earned higher marks than Harris on the economy, dealing with inflation and the cost of living, and border security and controlling immigration.

Harris earned more positive ratings for competence, honesty, and having the right temperament to be president.

Step aside from all the nonsense and this is what it boils down to, vote for someone who can actually run a country, or give the job to your aunty and hope for the best.

Did you even read your quote?

"Harris earned more positive ratings for competence,honesty, and having the right temperament to be president."

You then said

Step aside from all the nonsense and this is what it boils down to, vote for someone who can actually run a country, or give the job to your aunty and hope for the best.

The quote you provided said that Harris scored more for competence and having the right temperament.

Does that not mean people prefer her as a president who can run a country?

Dear god…

I would not be friends with someone i thought might be racist,

I'm not a Trump supporter nor am i his friend ,

People only think Trump would do better with inflation because inflation rose heavily at the start of Biden's term (due to the knock-on effect of Covid), which also happened in pretty much every developed nation, and even though Biden's administration managed to control and then reduce inflation (quicker than many other nations did), people think Trump would now do better.

I'm not saying Trump caused the inflation (again, it was mostly unavoidable as a consequence of Covid, supply chains etc), but because the effects of it happened during Biden's term, people associate it with Biden, which is just f*cking stupid.

Keep digging…

Well, you haven't linked to any academics who state he is a Fascist. I don't believe he is as the differences are too vast and the outcomes too dissimilar. He's a chancer whose only priority is self-gain and immunity from prosecution. The Christian Nationalist Right thinktanks who are behind P25 however are another thing altogether; they've just written the blueprint of how to introduce MAGA Fascism™ into some of the states. But they're pushing for a theocracy, more like the Taliban. Y'all Qaeda, if you will.
