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

I think it’s funny that people don’t realise that some states haven’t finished counting, AP has the election at 85% reported. For example California is only at 58%, there’s a good few more million to be counted.

Now Trump will win the popular vote, the projection is 82m Trump, 75m Kamala. That’s in comparison to 81m Biden, 74m Trump in 2020. But using todays vote count to somehow prove that 2020 was a stolen election is so stupid.

Hammer meet nail.

It's 2024 not 1960. Get over it.

with a bit of luck

I don't see the voter base getting excited about anyone else but Trump. Whether by accident or design, Trump has placed himself at the exact centre of his movement.

It is a hallmark of MAGA that to be any kind of mover and shaker within it, you have to above all demonstrate loyalty to himself. Maybe subordination would be a better word. That's the wellspring of legitimacy within that world, but it comes with an inbuilt glass ceiling. You'll never be able to claim the top spot after positioning yourself as a toadie. As I've said before, if Trump goes, the best bet for a replacement would be to stand at a podium with two huge floor to ceiling banners emblazoned with an airbrushed rendition of Trump's face on either side of them.

Anyway, this could all be a ways off. Despite numerous predictions of Trump having some sort of coronary event so severe that he explodes in a bloody mess of half-digested Big Macs and Diet Coke, it would no longer surprise me if he lived to 110 just to spite medical science.

But what if he rips up the supreme court 🤔

Not if he tells Musk to do it

Take a look at the gains in Il and NY, Dems can no longer take the minority vote for granted, big wake up call.

Why is she blaming him?

So why didn't she come out and ask him to? If I remember, it was only when George Clooney voiced his concern that it seemed to be picked up and focused on? Some other democrats stated before the initial primaries that Biden should not seek a second term…. her name was not on that list.

She is some piece of work now saying Biden should have dropped out earlier so they could have had primaries to select a different candidate.

Here is what she said at the end of June

"There’s nothing as well, as just as Joe Biden getting up and taking the ball over the finish line. Something else could be chaotic," 

But understand this, this is really important for people to understand. Joe Biden has won the nomination. He has won the nomination"

Kind of hard for her to revise history at this point when Biden was “sharp as a tack” in July.

Why doesn't she take some of her own advice and retire.

The Democrats really need to move on from the Obama's, Pelosi, Schumers of the world. If they really want to win be an actual left wing party economically. Enough with the donors and celebrities.

We were all excited getting stuff posted out to us/deliveries etc… it was something to break the lockdown boredom! The fact some states allowed or had less restrictions on mail in voting also meant more could post their ballot in. My point is, don't compare 2024 turnout with 2020.

Parties tend to keep a united front at senior level even if there’s all sorts of fighting going on behind the scenes, which there likely was.

The whole thing has been mishandled by the senior democrats for quite a while at this stage. They’re collectively to blame for hobbling Harris by not having a strategy until they panicked when they suddenly realised that an 81 year old was elderly and rushed to get her into place.

She never had time to build momentum and realistically they should have been giving her much more profile over the last couple of years, with Biden giving her space.

And so it begins: Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) avoids assassination attempt at his residence.

Republicans are looking to ensure they control the House in January, come hell or high water. Control of the House has not been determined yet.
