Apart from the small problem of having to live and work in a country to access healthcare.EU is sort of similar with FoM.
Isn’t Trump favourite?My own estimate is she wins with around 290-250 in the college

Agree to an extent but Brighton is suggesting a big win for Harris and last I looked Trump had a marginal lead in most of the swing states.Doesn’t really matter as it’s so close

I did see the one Iowa poll has confused things though.
Whoever wins the world is fucked. American hegemony has been awful for the world, just look at it; ignorance in their isolationism of Nazi Germany and a similarly expansionist Japan, the decades long continual bringing of the world to the brink of nuclear war and the destabilisation, followed by the occasional ill-thought out hasty exit, in the Middle East in the pursuit of oil and the aspiration of nation state building.
If the US elects Trump and they return to isolationism, I say the UK takes over the world again. Last time we did so, we abolished slavery, kept our squabbles with Russia to a mere one war (Crimean War) with the odd imperialist rivalry (the Great Game), and a near unprecedented century long world peace. Rule Britannia!
(Before anyone begins a frothing at the mouth tirade at me, the above is mainly satire)
Last couple of days everything seems to be showing a big swing towards Harris.
Fair enough, not been following closely.
Whoever loses is going to have their supporters descend into meltdown, let's be honest.
Fences up around the White House and business boarding up their premises. Once again the sort of thing we used to mock when it was happening in a third world country is now an accepted part of a 'functioning' democracyPart of my psycho mind wants trump to win the other part wants it to be tight and for him and supporters to go ape shit
You are familiar with the works of Margaret Attwood?I read that 2 supreme court judge will retire in the next cycle as well. More right wing, religious nut jobs will be picked. Good luck if you're gay, trans, an immigrant or a woman.
True, but one side's meltdown is going to look very different from the other.
Oh dear. I see it has already begun.
At times I do think it is heading that way.You are familiar with the works of Margaret Attwood?
That was my initial reading of things, but I think the polls are genuinely making the same mistake as in 2022 and underestimating Democrat turnout. There were widespread predictions then of Republicans sweeping the Senate and House, and the polls supported those. In reality, Democrats kept the Senate and the House was just narrowly lost as basically every Trump endorsed candidate lost their race.Isn’t Trump favourite?
If only there was a recent example of how MAGA react to losing.
Oh yeah, there are more than a few idiots that cannot behave. If Harris loses it will be the entire left of the political spectrum in floods of tears though. After their sneering and bullying it will be a delight to watch. There is a serious lack of awareness coming from many on that side, and the whole pretending to be compassionate bullshit is very superficial.
That being said, the media are such weapons it is very hard to tell which way the election will go. Here is a reminder from 2016 though.

It's reasonable to condem the Capitol but accept the left have a massive problem accepting democracy as well.Yes as I said, one side’s meltdown is very different to the other. Being in floods of tears is a little different to storming the Capitol with weapons!
That sounds plausibleFinal thing to mention here is that owing to how the votes are counted, it will look initially like Trump is doing much better than he actually has done, and it wouldn't shock me if he tries to claim victory before all the postal votes are included.
Woke lolI read that 2 supreme court judge will retire in the next cycle as well. More right wing, religious nut jobs will be picked. Good luck if you're gay, trans, an immigrant or a woman.
In the real world the bookmakers say its over.My own estimate is she wins with around 290-250 in the college
I suppose we will soon see if I am an idiot or a geniusIn the real world the bookmakers say its over.
Trump 8/15.
Both assassination attempts were by Republicans were they not?It's reasonable to condem the Capitol but accept the left have a massive problem accepting democracy as well.
Attempted assassinations and attacks on Trump supporters are absolutely not fine at all either.
That was my initial reading of things, but I think the polls are genuinely making the same mistake as in 2022 and underestimating Democrat turnout.

Grendel is probably correct to say that this time the Republicans will take control of the Senate, unless Ted Cruz loses his seat in Texas. There are a good number of states today with direct ballot votes on abortion as well, which should further add to Harris votes. So I think states where the polls are claiming a tie, or Trump +1, will actually be Harris +2/+3.
Final thing to mention here is that owing to how the votes are counted, it will look initially like Trump is doing much better than he actually has done, and it wouldn't shock me if he tries to claim victory before all the postal votes are included.
Harris at 13/8 is the bet.In the real world the bookmakers say its over.
Trump 8/15.

He said yesterday he has a massive lead which obviously isn't what the polls are showing. Pretty clear they're already lining up the 'it was fixed' story in case he loses.Fully expecting Trump to claim victory by 2am UK time.
