      Yeah, but that’s all of them. Israel as our only real ally in the ME gets whatever Israel wants and neither major party is about to change that over a little genocide.

          I don’t know what all the fuss was about. He doesn’t seem too old to me. I’m writing him in and so should everyone else! (I’m 102 years old).

          (i actually thought the normal whites thesis would hold over from the midterms, with biden at the helm, and then after oct 7 and as biden looked like a literal marionette with blinken pulling the strings, i thought they’d/he’d let bibi exhaust himself in warcrimes, let bibi hang himself in the court of public opinion, and then tact to a more moderate policy, with a new candidate at the helm, after the stewardship of genocide was complete.

          so i did successfully, if accidently, call biden dropping so that the party could pick his successor while avoiding a primary; i just assumed biden would be a willing participant, and that the adults in the room would have the juice to cow Israel, instead of being totally juiceless, feckless worms.)

    This race is the most “who fucking knows” since I’ve followed US elections.

    Some things of I think are of note

    • AZ and NV having abortion ballot measures should heavily lean dem (someone else here already mentioned this)
    • NC’s governor ticket will probably drag Republicans down. Mark Robinson was exposed as a serial gooner (pornshop debt) who is a black Nazi that wants slavery to return (this is not a joke). He strikes me as a worse Herschel Walker/Dr Oz type candidate and I think dems pickup NC because of it. The broader Republican party is trying to run away from him because he’s seen as that toxic
    • GA will have the most brazenly corrupt election this side of the century, and that’s saying a lot since their incumbent governor probably stole his own first election already. Their election board will send Trump electors no matter what (unless there is somehow a massive electoral college win for Kamala which I don’t see happening)
    • MI goes for Trump on the Stein 3rd party vote and liberals transition from their current state (going mask off) to gleeful celebration of, like, domestic socdem repression
    • PA I genuinely have no clue. No confidence whatsoever in a call either way
    • Every other state I think is locked in (including WI for dems- this is possibly what I’ll be most gut feeling wrong about)

    Republicans take the Senate

    I think a 269-269 tie is an incredibly possible situation and I think it would fall under funniest timeline theory (for those reading this results in a Trump presidency due to tiebreaker rules favoring him).

      And also in the event of a 269 vote tie dems will deffinitly concede immediatly and claim the moral high ground for the next 4 years, telling all of us they told us they’d lose if we didn’t support them.

      They lost an election to the Republicans, they aren’t expected to do anything, and they can punch left and blame us. That’s literally everything the democratic party cpuld ask for.

      There needs to be an “all the world’s a stage” but niche sexual complexes. “All politics is sexual pathology” just doesn’t cover it anymore

    Someone on here said Kamala will win the popular vote but lose the electoral college so I’m going with that. Oh an one more Trump assassination attempt this time by a white black hebrew israelite mad at Trump because he’s a fake or something (truth be told idk what these guys want or believe).

      That could easily happen if she’s popular in CA by a massive margin but not so popular elsewhere. That’s how it worked for the other times this has happened in recent history - the margin in CA being so large that the national margin is smaller than the CA margin.

    Kamala wins by a landslide, both electorally and popular vote, but then, Trump and the GOP just say “no”, and then a 6-3 Supreme Court decision rules Trump is the winner. The Democrats immediately fold, and then blame the left for them losing. Living in a city is then made a crime punishable by death, and the Democratic Party becomes nonviable.

    Despite democratic insistence (or are they just repeating because if you hear something enough times you believe it) that the race is going to go to Kopmala, trump wins.

    No funny shit, no stuffed ballot boxes. Trump just fucking wins because the US and A is just that shitty of a place to be and your neighbors really are the pieces of shit you always suspected them of being.

      move out of the suburbs, it’s not real life.

        I dunno, I feel like the suburbs are a pretty good representation of the average American. It’s just that the average American is kinda insane.

        You have to get more rural for the median voter to be i-am-adolf-hitler but I don’t feel like the somewhat more normal city people are super representative of the average American either.

        I really don’t live in the burbs. I live in an unincorporated area where the cows outnumber the humans. South Texas border town. My neighbors really are pieces of shit. I’m an exception as opposed to the rule, but still… it’s what I deal with daily.

        I might be the only ‘lefty’ in a hundred square miles.

    I think it’ll be very close but Kamala will win. I think she’ll barely squeak by in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, Trump will barely win Georgia, she’ll win Michigan and Nevada more solidly, and Arizona will go for Trump. I think this outcome will be less of a reflection of support for Kamala and more of a loss in enthusiasm for Trump this time around. This is a group of people who have been told over and over that the vote is rigged, therefore their vote doesn’t matter, and being generally lazy, they may be looking for an excuse to just stay at home.

    I say this fully expecting to be proven totally wrong in a month and therefore be completely owned, but that’s what my gut tells me now. It really could go either way.

    Relevant update, Sleepy Joe is apparently finally threatening to halt arms shipments… What if the October surprise is just that Biden and Harris were willing to let a genocide go on so they could suddenly kill it to swing the election? Please tell me I’m just being cynical…
