    Are people really that thick? The causes of inflation over the last 4 years are well documented and available to all - you’d really need to get your head examined if you were to believe prices are up solely due to the democrats


    Donald Trump’s running mate, Ohio senator JD Vance, made one final visit to the key swing state of Wisconsin before election day where he urged voters to back the Republican ticket even if “you don’t agree with everything that Trump says.”

    “You don’t have to agree with everything that I say, every policy proposal that we have. But what we know is that when Donald Trump was president, you could afford to pay your bills.”

    "As for suddenly adopting identity politics, well that's different from you. Strange way to frame the fact that Trump does terrible among women because his policies are completely out of touch with them, and he's creepy as hell about it: "grab them by the pussy, you can do whatever you want" "whether women like it or not" etc"

    I didnt adopt any identity politics, you are reaching and trying to misrepresent me yet again.

    I said

    1.This election really is the battle of the sexes, men vs women. Will the gap among women be larger for Harris that the gap among men for Trump.

    Which is true, Im not framing anything.

    After all the twists and turns, rallies, debates and interviews, polls and analysis, it feels a bit surreal that the election day is finally upon is.

    If the Dems do sweep the Presidency and both Houses, day 1 needs to see them pass Voter Reform to put the knife into minority rule once and for all.

    The penchant he has for that weird makeup is just downright peculiar. It really is off putting. I'm, genuinely, at a loss as to how anyone could think that that kind of thing would be a good look? And he makes a conscious decision to apply this every day.

    It really is terribly distracting because my eyes just keep getting drawn to it and my brain just keeps asking why does he do it, when there's so many other options open to him. Surely a man as rich as Trump would be able to afford makeup people that could do his makeup in a less disconcerting way?

    If this is true then Trump is in serious trouble.


    I know a lot of people have already voted but Trump was filling rallies when there was no election on, people go to see their idol.

    If they no longer idolise him them they're not gonna vote for him



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,378 ✭✭✭✭gmisk


    Maybe it is a helpful distraction to the nonsense he spouts at this stage?

    I saw someone said his face looks like the inside of Tupperware after it has had bolognese in it...it's all I can see tbh.

    THe Kansas poll could be showing that the Iowa is not an outlier. Having said that the Kansas poll has a small sample size of around 600.

    The Iowa poll by Ann Selzer is highly respected. She has called the state right for a significant time. The last time she was incorrect was Bush/Kerry, however right after her poll Bush held a substantial rally there.

    There is a suspicion that polls are overcorrecting for Trump and there is a significant number of polls that are tampered with. If Kansas is out by the margin of error of 3-5% it's still trouble for Trump. It means N Carolina, Nevada are both with Harris if Iowa swings to Harris and Georgia holds Trump still losescevenmif he hold all three blue wall states.

    The GOP money of Musk was concentrated on Pennsylsvania mainly as they had taught that Ariziona was in the bag and either Georgia or Michigen would fall there way as well

    However Iowa poll is showing that N Carolina could be a state that Trump and Co did not realise was a swing state as well and Kansas Poll is backing this up, if Iwoa falls the red wall crumbles

    Then the real danger for the GOP is the house and Senate could both go as well

    I checked the Kansas result from 2020 and trump won by 14 points so for a GOP candidate, no poll should be that close.

    This is all very nice to see ahead of tomorrow.

    The Vance boast "when Trump was president, you could afford to pay your bills" is a bit rich [no pun intended] given Trump's record on paying his bills.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,725 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    It's an identity politics argument, 'battle of the sexes,' 'men vs. women'

    It seems Musks millionaires were preselected. He was not giving away millions. Why are we not surprised

    The same Kansas poll had trump win 2020 by 14.4 pts, he won by 14.6 pts. Talk about close!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,027 ✭✭✭✭Tell me how


    Nah, I'd prefer not to be seeing it.

    I'd sooner people were motivated right up to the end to go vote instead of thinking it is in the bag.

    This time in 2016, Trump was planning on flying to Scotland for a week after the result was announced, he himself was that sure of losing.

    This last minute shift to 'Aw it was Kamala all along' from the pollsters has me thinking at least some of them are trying to save their reputation.

    I'm not really a betting guy, but I had a quick look on the paddypower website. There doesn't seem to be a way to bet on Harris winning the pop vote and the electoral vote. Which would suggest they're just chucking up odds on something something Trump. I think she will walk it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,014 ✭✭✭✭briany


    It's the hope that kills you, they say. I was so used to feeling pessimistic about this election for the last while that I'm trying to resist this last burst of optimism about Harris's chances, just in case it doesn't work out.

    If Trump gets slapped down as hard as some of these last polls are suggesting, he and the GOP would absolutely deserve it. Their stance on abortion is a gigantic anchor around their neck, electorally.

    If those US voters dont like their bills now wait until they see them with the Trump tariff tax added.

    Any good podcast episodes recommended that give a good preview/summary/overview or whatever you'd call of it where we are heading into tomorrow? Unbiased, if there is such a thing....

    Because Trump is Love. Trump is Life. Hail to Lord Trump. Loyalty to Trump trumps all.

    So Russia has come out and said Trump won’t be able to stop the war and have no interest in negotiations.

    Useful idiots fell for the propaganda and lies again.
