Biden took Arizona, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Georgia from Trump last election.

For the last 2 elections Nevada has been close but Blue and North Carolina close but red.

No one can predict what's going to happen here.



They probably will swing back to red.

Usually its what happens when you swing, and take a punt on what you end up considering a loser.  Biden didnt do anything really wrong, but the way they got rid of him wont help the swing voters think they made the right choice last time.

Nope
It's anybody's guess.
It all depends on the turn-out.
Spooky when you think that the whole world is sweating on whether or not some suburban Americans can be bothered getting off the couch.....
This is now the longest premiership drought in the history of the Carlton Football Club - more evidence of climate change?

Prof Alan Lichtman is sticking by his prediction that the Democratic contender will win the White House race.  However, he conceded, “It’s always possible that something so cataclysmic and so unprecedented could change the pattern of history.”

I think that's called covering your butt  :)

Lichtman claimed that he has “never experienced” this much “hate” since releasing his prediction and I think that reflects how polarising the campaign has been.

This US election is not just about political change, there is generational change happening as well.

I find it a bit disturbing that Trump is pandering to internet conspiracy, and in doing so denigrates many people including US war veterans in the process. I suppose he thinks the young out number the old, and so he can disregard offending a smaller demographic. It very much looks like they are doing this at the moment with the horrendous word play around various fascist underpinnings.

If Trump loses what happens to the GOP next, do they right the ship or become even more extreme?

Can't help but wonder why Musk has gotten into bed with the Orange One. What is the deal these two have made?

Slashing and removing any impediments to maximizing profit and minimizing competition from China. So tariffs on Chinese EV's, cutting workers rights and wages, cutting environmental regulations etc.

The only word these types understand is "more." They are insatiable. Musk and his ilk must be the wealthiest or close to the wealthiest people in history. Their fortunes increased several times over during covid, Trump gave them the mother of all tax cuts a few years ago, now as soon as Harris was nominated they are hitting her up, whinging about Capital Gains Tax.  It's never enough.

Gimme Trump over kents like Jinping, Putin or Jong Un every day of the week and twice on Sundays. The more China is taken out of economic equations the better AFAIC. Farkem.
2021-Pi$$ or get off the pot

Aurangzeb was passionately anti EV and renewables.  Musk has simply bought him off.

Musk has a future in energy and space, no need to over think his motives, a 1/4 of 1/2% is worth billion$ a year in trillion dollar industry, and Trump has offered him the keys to the cookie jar!

Musk loves China and doesnt want Tariffs is one reason...
The tariff stuff is fluff, grass roots Red voters drive a Bedford not Tesla, and more trad Bedford parts come from China, Korea or Taiwan than the equivalent Tesla content.

Mate, you can have him. His ideas and "policies" will soon make it hard to distinguish the US from the countries those leaders represent. Militarized police, harsh crackdown on dissenters, zero freedom of the press, zero regard for the environment, zero regard for worker safety, jobless, decaying urban centres........Yep, looks good.

The irony of Trump in control of the country that so vehemently celebrates Independence Day in not lost on many of us.

First he gave us "Space Force", now he wants to give America Trumptroopers, and yet they vote for him under a banner of freedom! :o

Donald Trump is not the cure for the likes of Xi, Kim or Putin, he is a comorbidity! ;)
