***Official Political Discussion Thread***

I never said the policy was good, what I'm saying is at least all of us in this thread can remember what they actually are running on, whether we agree with it or not and no matter how crazy it is.

The Dems didn't run on any policy that was memorable except women's reproduction rights, which to be honest, is an issue that white suburban women care about more than most minorities
What are you talking about?

In addition to abortion access and IVF (policies under threat by Reps), she also ran on providing support for first-time homebuyers, expanding M4A, and reducing the cost of childcare. In addition to that, I know she won't threaten to end policies like the CHIPS act, which is making the US competitive in a critical area of competition in this century, or the infrastructure bill, which is creating jobs for folks without college degrees.

Did I mention that she won't sell us out to foreign leaders who want to undo the alliances on which our economic system (and your relative prosperity) rests? Should ask how those soybean farmers are doing today?

Deporting people won't automatically give jobs to the jobless; we saw it with the rotting fields of crops during the first Trump administration. This was happening despite farmers offering top dollar to Americans for backbreaking work.

There are more uninhabited houses than there are homeless people, so what is taking more people out of the country going to do for the homeless that can't be done today?

At some point people just have to admit that they are indifferent to everything else they're going to get with Trump. And if he wins, they shouldn't be surprised when they ask for help and the first question they are asked to answer is, "who did you vote for?" and are treated accordingly.
 
This isn't true.

This is the map from last time...Trump may be holding serve and improving somewhat by where where he performed last time; Kamala is also maintaining and growing some margins around the map as well. Especially in the important swing counties (GA and PA).

Until a state swings the other way this is status quo.

i said trump is the favorite

not that trump is the winner.


kamalas path is narrowing, the simple truth is youd rather be Trump than Kamala right now.


things can change
 
I realize it’s still early, but Kamala initially held a strong lead in Pennsylvania, and suddenly, Trump has significantly closed the gap. I’m curious whether these numbers reflect early votes or today’s turnout. Quite a surprising shift!

Her best and most likely path to win was to always maintain the blue wall, support hasn't waned on any of that so far.

going from something being your "best" path
to you ONLY path, means your chances of winning have decreased.

if it was 50/50 before, with these results trumps gotta be 60-70% favortie.

thats what the NYTimes needle has it as.

I know I def need to move out of Southern IL... I went to vote today and the only democratic options were for president and governor. Literally everything there wasn't even a choice. Like, how is that even possible that no democrats even tried to run down here, or is it *******?
 
Yeah I think I am gonna move abroad, this country is ******

Please do. Time to get rid of the "garbage".... If you're that ideologically captured, get your *** out.

Philly and Pittsburgh haven’t been counted yet, Trump is running out of PA voters.
 
I believe Kamala would have had a smoother path to victory if she had taken a clear stance on immigration as a significant issue, pledging to strengthen border security and prioritize deportations where necessary. This is a major concern for many voters, including some who aren’t inclined to support Trump.
