It feels like the wheels are starting to come off the Trump train.
Never forget...felt like that in 2016 too...hell, 1/2 through election night I still wasn't worried (enough). What a fucking nightmare
True. This time there's no Hillary Clinton though, and that can only be a good thing.
I was all-in on Hill-dawg even though I voted for Bernie in the primary, and I have to say I was profoundly worried leading up to the 2016 election. I didn't think she did enough to call Trump out on his bullshit, and she also just plainly comes across as an inauthentic elite. I'm actually less worried this election cycle (but still a little worried). I think Harris has the potential to wipe the floor with Trump in a way Clinton couldn't even conceive of
The polls say otherwise.
She REALLY needs to move the needle in Pennsylvania or magically overcome worse numbers in Georgia and some other state to have a chance in hell of hitting 270.
It's shaping up to be a nail biter to the bitter end.
God help us if SCOTUS chose to steal it for him like the 2000 election.
