I know, right? Totally unrecognizable and with no history we can go check.
Comment on National Climate, Polling Points to a Trump Victory

I think election is close as hell. Obviously I am voting for Trump but I think the Democrats screwed themselves by running Kamala.
If they had wanted to win, they would have picked someone who leaned more right and was known.
If Trump wins, the Democrats only have themselves to blame.

Look at the polls. She wasn’t well know and not very liked.

This election is gonna be a weird one. Whoever wins will get at least 310 electoral college votes IMHO, but with narrow leads in those battleground states. So things on the electoral map will look way more lopsided than they should.

You only need 270 to win.

And?

Not sure why you think the winner will get 310. It could happen but I suspect this will be around the 270 range. Nobody is expecting anyone to wipe the board.

I think they screwed up not having a primary. Now all the anti-democratic arguments against Trump regarding Jan 6th feel muted.

A primary would have been good. I think it’s why many people are not overly excited over Harris. Many of my family members are democrats and they are not thrilled about Harris. They felt she was pushed in rather than earning the spot. A primary would change that view.
They’re still voting for her I suspect but they’re not happy about it.

It’s funny that many actual leftists are saying they hate Harris because she leans right and if the dems lose, they have only themselves to blame.
