I admire Donald Trump Jr because it is some achievement by him to be the worst human being in history called Donald Trump. I think is further proof that Team Trump do not know how to combat Team Harris and Walz. TSE
It appears we have at least one debate scheduled for September and potentially three, as we saw in June debates can matter. If Trump performs like he did during last night’s press conference then Harris should be seen as the winner. I was reminded how poorly Harris performed in the 2020 Democratic Party debates and with the Insurrectionist-in-Chief going in with low expectations it may be that if he doesn’t soil himself on stage during the debates he might be…
I find this kind of polling fascinating, I think it is down Dems worried about Trump winning. TSE
I still think Kemi Badenoch is the one to lay in this market it is quite interesting that the market has switched sharply since yesterday in the aftermath of Robert Jenrick’s comments about Allahu Akbar, even though his context made the comments less inflammatory and less stupid than originally implied. Whilst both Jenrick and Badenoch do well with Tory members it is Tory MPs who shortlist the final two, I can see a pathway that sees Tom Tugendhat and James…
Crossover happened overnight and it was inevitable wasn’t it? Every day gives us polling showing Harris is on course for victory. The two most striking polls yesterday were the ones in the tweet above and the poll which showed Harris leading Trump by 1% in the Rust Belt, the previous poll had Trump 5% ahead. All those hypothetical polls before Biden’s decision to stand down saying Biden was the only Dem who could beat Trump is a reminder that multi…
I suspect on a practical such a level will be unenforceable because do we really want a law that makes saying God is great is illegal in Arabic but legal in saying it in English, Latin, Greek, Urdu, and a plethora of other languages? This is a law that is nearly as stupid as the people proposing/support such a law. Older PBers will remember when Mrs Thatcher’s government banned the voices of Sinn Fein to be heard on television so…
I hate to brag but as I predicted last month it looks like crossover on the main Betfair presidential market is about to happen very shortly and I thought a good Veep pick might be the tipping point and it looks like it. It’s difficult to not like Tim Walz, he was the guy who came up with the idea of labelling Trump/Vance as weird and is with the clip above he’s quite witty playing on the meme that JD…
If Kamala Harris can maintain this momentum into September then this becomes her election to lose as I expect her to receive a bump after the convention. Picking Tim Walz as her running mate should solidify the lead Harris has as they look very impressive particularly compared to the weirdos that are the gruesome twosome on the Republican ticket. TSE
