The benefits of a strong a economy are only being felt by a small minority - who are absolutely flying.

The thing about Americans though is they do not care about fairness at all. They only care about opportunity. They think “what is my best chance of becoming a 1%er”. So any policy that promotes fairness, to most Americans, means it’s costing them a shot at being rich.

Could Trump win the popular vote from here?
Republicans have only done it once since 88

I don't think that's actually true, it's a bit of a cliche. I think most Americans just don't believe it can ever change.

Very possible. I’ve been watching it throughout the day and it’s gone from as high as 54.5 to 45 in Trump’s favour to now 51 to 47.5. So it’s moving towards equilibrium but not that drastically.

Yeah so reality is really testing my predictive nous here.

At least I got the close part!

And this is the flipside to my prediction.

Putin is going to spend the next three months unleashing hell the world hasn't seen since 1945 and then agree to move back 500 metres in return for all sanctions being lifted and Trump getting a full bells and whistles state visit to Moscow

Lol my favourite analysts, Kamala lost because she wheeled out the guest list to diddys freak outs, while aiming to get the same horrified constituents, who have watched daily updates of the alleged crimes, to vote for her a couple of days later…

Epstein literally called Trump his best friend, and Diddy said he and Trump were close friends.

Stop pretending there's any morality or rationality behind the support for Trump.

so you’re saying it doesn’t matter who you vote for??

I'm saying trying to make a claim that Kamala's celebrity endorsements swung the result in any way whatsoever is nonsense.

I know you’re irrational at the moment but you might’ve missed the lol at the start..

So why did a vast number of people in the country adore vote for him?

I was going to write the same thing; I’ve been 3 times since 1991 and the gap between the haves and have nots has not changed. Trump has given a voice to these people.

The Media and Showbiz is a smoke screen to the real angst of America.

I can’t believe I’ve allowed myself to be fooled again by it.

That seems to be a world wide issue though

Edit: and it has as its getting worse

They learnt nothing from 2016.
Celebrity endorsements didn't help them then and they're now toxic in a post Diddy/Epstein world.
Just reinforces the belief of people in middle America, that the Dems are the party of the coastal elite.

Because despite what the democrats and the media tried to portray, Harris is extremely unpopular, maybe even the most unpopular vice president in living memory.

Called that the moment she was announced as the candidate, DesertRoo did too.

Donald was going to end it with a phone call?

The Nationals like this

It’s a bit like when the media had Hillary winning in 2016
