Now, let’s see how Trump ruins or lessens his chances of winning with his public comments and pot shots.

So far, many are saying Biden bowing out of the campaign is honorable, etc. But no one is explaining why it’s honorable. That is, why is he bowing out?

Well. If this is anything. I have a very liberal family side. Ones that were going to vote for Biden. They will sit it out this time. They will vote but will skip over the president box.

And these are liberals folks.

But the reason is something you may have forgotten.

The dems still have a Hamas support problem. That goes beyond Joe and Harris.

It was easy to still support Joe ( for them ) because it’s what they did last time. But Harris and any other dem has been adamant in their Hamas support and lack of support for Israel.

She has 0 experience internationally and does anyone realize countries like Iran and other Mideast will NOT speak with a woman. Even the president.

Dems still have a lot of smudges and problems like the college riots to overcome.

Don’t be so quick to think Harris is got this in the bag and will win the presidency.

This is a saving face move.

Be worried. Please do. But let that motivate you to vote.

In the end. Gods got this y’all. Only he knows best. Please remember that.

People fail to mention that the reasons Johnson dropped out was Vietnam and Robert Kennedy being ahead in Polls.

Then Robert was killed in California.

That was a very different situation. But it does make a point that every open convention has been a loss.

But you say there hasn’t been that since 1952. Wrong. Brokered vs open.

Two different things.

Open is when no one candidate secures the majority of the delegates. Therefore it becomes an open convention where the delegates that were released by other candidates can now vote for anyone.

Brokered is when they vote for a candidate and don’t reach a decision on the first vote.

These use to happen all the time. They don’t now thanks to locking in delegates to state results.

The last instance of an open convention was 1976 when Reagan was close to defeating ford. He didn’t and the candidate lost.

Before that was 1968 once again open because Kennedy was killed. Again a loss.

Now we have this year.

Lastly. Dems are in chaos. Lots of voters don’t like chaos. Those are what decided the 2020 election. Trump is more focused more unifying and maybe a tempered after the shooting. Plus he has that photo.

Sorry this is trumps race to lose.

The democrats are actively trying to figure out which blue dog to run that will keep their base and attract swing voters. They don't have a deep bench. But I agree with others, this is mostly Trumps election to lose. And I will repeat myself from an earlier post a couple weeks back. If you care, get out and vote early and in person.

We won’t know much until there is about 2 weeks worth of polling and even then it may not be as reliable.

Polling agencies have been doing research for months on Trump vs Biden. There’s very little data on a hypothetical matchup of Harris vs Trump. I don’t expect the needle to move much for either candidate however. Are people who previously were voting for Trump now going to suddenly vote for Harris? Or vice versa those voting Biden now switching to Trump?

I think the more important question is how many Dems will just stay home vs how many republicans? It’s more likely you will have dissatisfied voters for Biden who will simply not vote as opposed to Trump haters on the republican side.

Unless Harris somehow knocks it out of the park at the convention or the debate.

Not likely but the media may portray it that way however.

But look “being the first black female anything” didn’t work for Stacey Abrams. Doubtful it works for Harris.

I wonder how long it will be before he pardon's Hunter now?

Pass the popcorn.

Can Judge in NY send Trump to JAIL??

In 2020 he was the only one who had a chance to beat Trump, and he needed help on top of that to be successful.

In 2024, the Democrats lied to their base to get him the nomination in hopes of winning, then giving it over to someone else after winning the election. The debate made it clear to them (we already knew) that he cannot beat Trump on the campaign trail. Biden had to endorse Harris, but the party can arrange to have a preferred candidate "independently" challenge Harris at the convention. Be ready for someone else besides Harris winning the nomination.

I’m listening to multiple people calling on Biden to resign. No No No! Kamala Harris should not be in that role even for a minute!!! Who in their right mind thinks that’s a good idea?! Biden’s not in control anyway, other people are making decisions for him and have been for a long time. Let him stay, sleep in, shuffle around while everyone argues about who should challenge Harris! Let them Fight, Fight, Fight amongst themselves I say!

Listening to you reading Obama’s hagiographic letter about Biden, I got an overwhelming nausea.

Oh, I get it now, this is the Democrats throwing Kamala under the bus. They know they are going to loose so don't go down with the ship that can't win, replace Biden with a sacrificial lamb. Save the old white guy's reputation at the expense of of the black women. She, like Stacy Abrahams is done.

This was my thought as well. If they stick with her it's because no one likes here and this effectively ends her political career. I think they know they cannot win and the best they can get out of it is to end her career. I wonder who else they'll end with her as her running mate? I have some ideas but I can't wait to see who they tag on her ticket. Pass the popcorn.

Now that Biden has secured golden parachutes for his syndicate he is pulling the pin. Kackleberry Hairy will not have the luxury of dementia to hide her stupidity. President Trump and Republicans must keep her in the media spotlight as much as possible so that the electorate can get sick of her word salads!

Racism and sexism...

Well there it is, Trump wins and America is racist and sexist ( never mind Obama).

"The Troubles" are upon us, the Left will ramp up the violence and the press will gaslight us about Right, white violence.

One thing republicans seem to overlook is how many women vote emotionally. Way too many will vote for someone just because they have a woman to vote for. Or because they think Trump is crass. Or because they choose to believe Trump will take their rights, all the while overlooking that nothing takes away the rights of women more than letting men pretend to be one. I don't see how they dare skip over Harris, but who knows.

Biden got deprioritized. You got to ask yourself what he got to step aside.

Let’s hope the Republicans can keep it together and don’t shoot themselves in the foot..

If it’s close come November we are done. We really need the Republicans to get out and vote.

I don’t put anything past the left to stay in power. Lie, cheat, steal by any means possible.
