Re: Current Events...
Looks like voter turnout is insanely high in some of these key states.
As I'm sure you guys know, high voter turnout usually means the election is leaning blue...at least in the 21st century anyways.
I saw someone from Charlotte on Reddit say they spotted this sign after voting...
“No MAGA, No Trump, give us our Republican Party back”
Fuckin' A.
The 80s had the Reagan Democrats.... we're on the verge of seeing if the Kamala Republicans swing the election in the battleground states.
It's insane how many people in Trump's administration have endorsed her.
This election is basically a repeat of 2020 without the pandemic.
Here are your choices....
1. Trump
2. Not TrumpIt's pathetic we've reached the point where Kamala of all people will likely ascend to the presidency.
Just one more reason Trump should've moved on after 2020.
The country is going to keep doing this until the GOP decide to flush MAGA once and for all.
No matter who wins, the Dems need to make changes as well. A LOT of people are sick of this woke nonsense and they are damn lucky Republicans keep pushing all these loonies and grifters.
We can't have an election that shows the public wants it flushed once and for all because it always takes a backseat to the MAGA shit.
I lean left but agree with most of this. Democrats are lucky actually, the woke stuff was minor because Trump (and Vance) kept on giving them campaign ad material on a weekly basis it seemed.
It should have been a fucking wake up when Dick Cheney of all people endorsed Harris. Deep down inside I think most non wingbat Republicans want him to lose and go away. They can’t win or even plot a new messsage because the guy takes up all the fucking oxygen in the room when he speaks.
They also fucked up big time in assessing the results in 2016 and beyond. It wasn’t really a movement or a shift ; it was a one off that they got lucky and stars aligned. After he loss in 20, should have replaced him.
What they need to do is to find someone that sounds reasonable who can be the face of the party (short or long term). And find a woman who understand their (GOP women) concerns. Because I bet there are going to be a ton of crossover votes just because they feel their issues aren’t being addressed or listened to.
Re: Current Events...
I wish Kasich was 20 years younger. He's the type of Republican who could probably get the GOP back on track, improve their image, and make things more presentable.
A lot of people thought Desamtis would fill this role but I don't think so. He clearly wasn't ready for primetime and shouldn't have run in this election.
The fact neither side has any legit leaders waiting in the wings is frightening.
All the high profile politicians are loons.

Re: Current Events...
I guess this is what happens when you place someone into the general election who only received 1% of the vote in a couple primaries four years ago.
Both sides should learn a valuable lesson from that....
Don't force anyone into the slot while bypassing primaries.
Re: Current Events...
Why does Vermont keep voting for Bernie Sanders? Can't a younger dem ever step up and gain traction?
If this is not only a Trump landslide but he also wins the popular vote, it's a MASSIVE wake up call to the Dems.
Trans, thousand genders, everything is racist nonsense has to go bye bye. A bunch of them will throw hissy fits but they're gonna have to do it for their own party's survival.
If they don't, you'll see an additional red wave in 2026...and then Vance is up to bat in 2028.
Start cleaning house now.

I totally miscalculated this. Somehow Trump got 25% of the black vote and increased Latino vote share.
Yeah you’re right. Don’t shoehorn somebody in and FFS don’t run an old senile fart in the first place for reelection when he’s closing in on 80.
They got nobody to blame on that one.
Re: Current Events...
Is it too early to ask this....
Should Biden have just stayed in the race? Would his chances really have been any worse?
If Biden was at full health, I think he would have done better (probably.) But as is... probably not. His health was falling too much. His polling was worse than Kamala's was and so far polling is pretty spot on (generally...)
