    If anyone’s wondering, the 9-out-of-10 is from calling Gore over George Dubya back in 2000. So if you give him a pass due to hanging chads he’d be 100%

      And just for the election… gore won, but his campaign fucked up by not asking for (legally required,) recounts and the SCROTUS used that to hand the election to W.

      Imagine where we’d be if that warmonger never got into office.

        Yeah and the supreme court ruled that they didn’t have time to go and look at all the chads. So go fill all those circles like it’s AP biology finals just in case it happens again

    I do think Harris will win the election - Trump isn’t even trying to anymore. Instead he decided to fire up the worst people in his cult for what comes after.
    The election isn’t the end of Trump’s grab for power, it’s just the end of the first act.

      First act? If you’d say third act, then I’d side more with you.

      But besides that - LOL! If Trump couldn’t retain power WHILE being president, what makes you think he will regain it if he loses the election? A Trump coup d’etat? In the U.S.??? LOL!

      I think Harris is going to win the election, then immediately following that SCROTUS will declare her unable to run or pull some other BS to hand it to the fascist

          I think the biggest issue is they didn’t have support of congress. Senate was nominally democratic controlled, as was the house.

          Enough that they could have presumably handed a contingent election to Biden. In such an election, each state gets one vote (state delegation, not individual reps,) and it takes 26 states to win- trump would have had an advantage because republicans control more states even though dems controlled the house.

          I don’t think people realize how close we came to the election being stolen then.

    This guy is like the definition of a broken clock. He should wear a bowtie so people know not to take him seriously.
