I think Trump is going to win this.

I hope to god I am wrong, and I have spent the better part of a year telling Democrats we will win this. But with less than 2 weeks left, I no longer feel good about this race. I always knew the polls would tighten but seeing many swing states flip to Trump is a bad sign.

I feel like I am already starting to grieve this election, and honestly this nation. I just don't understand.

Practically all polls are within a MoE and it's a toss-up by the averages still, don't lose faith, Harris has got this.

Honestly I low-key wonder if pollsters are just putting themselves in a position where they can say they were right whether Trump or Harris wins, Lol. Cause if either one of them wins, pollsters won't be off by much, unless one of them won by a landslide.

I still believe it's going to be extremely close but I also can't help but feel polls feel a bit off, Harris ground game has been brilliant, Democrats have been consistently underestimated post-Dobs and some of these crosstabs on polling have been wild. If Harris loses it'll be because uneducated Americans on the economy and bigots, but Harris has not yet lost, it's not over until it's over. Get ya head in the game Americans! Lol. 

If you're that worried, Idk, donate or something, do what you can to help out.

I work for member Congress who is in a swing district but not a swing state. I feel good about our race but I will be out volunteering on the doors all weekend.

I still think Democrats can take the house.

Well it's good that you're actually doing something about it, keep it up, use the fear to motivate you but don't let yourself get weighed down in the belief that the fight is already lost, Kamala CAN win this. Also, most of Europe is relying on a Harris win too, so we're counting on you Americans, Lol. This election won't just hurt America but also have global ramifications if Trump wins.



Fuck Jeff Bezos but they're being blasted for it, by employees and subscribers.



Biden won by 6.

Too early to doom Nevada, I will doom Arizona though



Around the Network

CNN is turning into The Daily Show now. (First three minutes or so.)

I suppose Tapper is still pissed because of the bullshit interview he had to do with Mike Johnson not too long ago.

Anyway, about time that an actual news channel aspires to feature journalism of a respectable level that you could otherwise almost exclusively only find on The Daily Show and late night shows.



Legend11 correctly predicted that GTA IV will outsell Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I was wrong.



Trump insults Detroit straight to their face and turns up at least two hours late to Traverse rally.

Keep pissing off Michigan Pls.



MI and WI EVs look good for Harris, GA not quite so. The rest is a bit of a mixed bag or too early to tell.

Florida is gone, gone, gone. The real question is double-digits for Trump or not.

Less than two weeks to find out whether the country is run by people like this:

Are we living in a comedy or a tragedy?

I try not to be unnecessarily rude but I do wonder if this election is really just between relatively "smart" american vs. relatively "dumb" Americans. And the verdict just might be there are more dumb Americans in this country or at least the swing states.

  

Definitely not.  The media has done a great job of selecting dumb trump supporters to make it seem that way, but that is disingenuous.  I know a lot of Ph.D scientists, who are far from dumb, who are voting Trump.

Liberals don't want to hear it, but some people don't like their platform.  The idea that only dumb people are conservative is media nonsense.  

I have plenty of college educated friends and family who are perfectly smart and successful, and they are Trumpers. 

People underestimate his fanbase, which is why liberals struggle beating him in elections.  

A shame we learned so little since 2016.  Perhaps if liberals would stop underestimating their opponent this wouldn't be a close race?
