    Why would anyone vote for a weird, creepy old man that is obviously struggling with dementia?

  3. People: Saying “doesn’t matter, vote” isn’t going to make us vote harder. You seriously need to chill with the doomerism and thinking that viewing good polls is a bad thing.

    That’s not how motivation works. You’re preaching to the choir ffs.

    Trump losing is not enough. ALL Republicans on the ballot must lose. ALL vestiges of Trumpism must be purged if the GOP is ever going to be recoverable.

  5. Yep. A few outlier polls could have been dismissed. But four polls, simultaneously, all of them high quality (Suffolk and Quinnipiac and I believe Siena/Times as well) saying that Trump is behind is… something.

  6. Suddenly? I honestly do not believe he was ever actually ahead. Whatever the case, it is good to know that it seems like the whole country may very well be getting extremely tired of this stuff.

    I find it much more interesting and telling that states like Texas and Florida are “lean red” now. Sure, Trump will probably still win both—but they aren’t Republican bastions anymore.

    The fact Trump is winning by a +5 or +10 in states he used to win by like +20 really shows his grip loosening, and should help nearby states that are closer to flip.

    And of course there is the moonshot scenario of Texas and/or Florida flipping, which could happen if people came out and voted. Both states have trash voter turnout, and studies show that when voting is up, it tends to be more blue. So if you’re in Texas or Florida…bring a friend. Bring 10 friends. You could lock the election with just either state.

    And one final fun thought. If Texas or Florida turned blue…but especially Texas…the Republicans would likely never ever win again. What a lovely thought.

  8. He will lose. Once that happens, his cult members will try to de certify the electoral votes. As that is failing, he will be priming the radicalised segment of his following for violence. Inevitability, he will incite them to domestic terrorism, and Putin will attempt some black swan events. This is the lifeline that Putin must have to keep his fragile grasp on empire. Do not surrender in advance. Do not capitulate. The closest thing we have to an antidote is to vote in overwhelming numbers, blue up and down ballot, and then task force the domestic terrorists. Demand accountability for all the members of Congress who are in league with Putin and Trump. History teaches us these people will simply go underground if they do not meet justice, and this will begin all over again.

  9. The mid 90’s is when the GOP shit the bed as a party and they have run wild with the crazy each year since. The GOP knows it needs a purge but the red hat voters are the problem

  10. Chalk another vote for Harris in PA. My wife (R) just requested her mail-in ballot. She refuses to vote for any GOP this cycle, but couldn’t be fucked switching parties.

    Here’s Biden v Trump in PA in 2020: [https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-elections/pennsylvania-results/](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-elections/pennsylvania-results/)

    Here’s Fetterman v Oz in 2022: [https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-elections/pennsylvania-senate-results](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2022-elections/pennsylvania-senate-results)

    In 2022, women of color *overwhelmingly* voted for Fetterman to Oz and considering Harris is also a woman of color that has been campaigning in PA hard and given trump’s stance on the issues that matter to this demographic, I don’t think he’s going to perform better this year than he did in 2020.

    I think it’s going to be something like 53 Harris, 45 trump. I don’t think it’s going to be even close.

  12. Vote for the baseline. At the end of the day, our children need someone they can look up to in the White House. We don’t need someone modeling the worst human behaviors for us day in and out.

    Vote for decency.

  13. Not saying this should come from the Harris campaign, but people should be reminded that every vote for Harris is one more vote that will send this orange fuck to prison once the election is over. The schadenfreud alone should be incentive enough. It’s been at least 8 years. We’ve had enough of this orange menace.

  14. If Kamala wins Penn, Wisconsin and Michigan she’ll get to 270. If not it’s gonna be 4 more years of foolery. Sure hope the majority of spending is in these 3 states instead of trying to turn Florida or Texas Blue.

  15. We need all three branches to overturn citizens United, add two states, fox the corruption on the Supreme Court, and protect voting rights, and fix the country Republicans have mangled and destroyed the past 50 years.

    Really hoping that enough other swing states go blue that the election fuckery in GA won’t matter.

  17. Pennsylvania shifting toward Harris makes sense. She has 50 campaign offices flourishing there, volunteers are pouring in from New York, New Jersey and Maryland. She has more campaign funding available and has purchased more ad time in the coming weeks. She and her surrogates, such as Biden and the Obamas, are spending time in Pennsylvania. The governor is a staunch supporter of Harris. Senator Casey is leading McCormick by a decent margin. All of these structural advantages show up gradually in the shifting polls.

  18. Vote people. Make sure everyone you can get to vote votes. Not only do we want this to be a landslide as a message to Trump is , but people voting is the biggest threat to gerrymandering. Gerrymandering stretches the margins thin to try to get them more seats but when the turnout is high you’re able to make some big changes. If we want them to actually be able to do things like enshrine pro choice rights in law then we need to make sure down ballot races are a knockout too and this election is the best opportunity to do so.

    What infuriates me to no end is that Trump gets the edge in this race on “economy”. The only reason he gets that edge is because people did better during his term…but why? Because he overinflated the economy, cut corporate taxes, and pressured the Fed to not raise the rates. This completely FUCKED us for the coming years, causing mass inflation. The inflation that Biden is being blamed for, even though any decent economist will tell you it’s from Trump and Covid.

    Biden/Dems have done an excellent job of cooling the inflation and avoiding a disastrous recession. They ARE the party of a good economy.

    So Trump pushed all of the levers to make this mess, gets voted out, and the Dems take the blame. Wash and repeat.

    If people truly saw how Trump’s actions caused the mass inflation, R’s would be losing in such big numbers that they would probably kick Trump out themselves.

  20. Lose by 100,000 it was stolen

    Lose by 1,000,000 it was super stolen

    Lose by 10,000,000 it was super duper stolen

    There is no scenario where Harris wins and Trump won’t claim it was stolen

  21. Pennsylvanian straight married white dude checking in. Fuck Trump, I’d crawl over broken glass to vote against him.

  22. As a former Republican voter, the nation needs to move on from this clown. I knew he was bad for the country in 2015. How anyone can still vote for this criminal and traitor is beyond me. There are so many red flags that are just ignored. The fact that the majority of his previous administration, including his former VP, spoke out against him should speak volumes. There aren’t any credible people left to fill his cabinet. Anyone he selects will just be a “yes man” and perpetuate his lies and/or allow Trump to make terrible decisions that are solely in his own interests.

    He’s far from stable. Shows obvious signs of mental decline (see comment about eating cats and dogs). And can be baited easily (see debate and the crowd comment). If Kamala can easily bait him on several issues, even though Trump had weeks of prep time, imagine what foreign adversaries can do to bait him?

    Trump has made it clear that he is out for himself. He’s running again to avoid incarceration. If anyone thinks his policies will help them or the country, please just go to his website and read his plans (or concept of a plan). You’ll notice nowhere does he answer the question of how he’ll accomplish any of his policies, just like he promised to have Mexico pay for his wall (newsflash US taxpayers funded his wall). Trump is just like your typical elementary school student who promises to give all students free candy and soda at lunch if you vote for them to be class president. Seriously! It’s insane that people fall for his bull.
