    I don’t know, it’s too soon to call it. We’re not even at the October surprise yet, probably Vance is getting replaced. Harris win depends on voter turnout

      Yeah, this type of “reporting” is infuriating to me. Claiming the election is in the bag is just a shitty attempt to depress voter turnout.

      I won’t trust that Trump has lost this election until Harris is sworn in as POTUS.

        Personally I think it’s much more self-serving than that. In case this come true, that pollster wants to make a name for himself by being the first to predict it.

        And you don’t even need to win to be president!

        You just need to have it be close enough to have the supreme court call it in your favor, just ask Al Gore about that one.

        (And for anyone confused: the odds that our bought-and-bribed-for supreme court would vote for anyone but Trump are pretty much lol, lmao.)

        I won’t trust it until I read it in his obituary. Until then he’s going to be claiming stolen election every single day.

        It actually plays into the Harris point of Trump churning through staff that he feels like aren’t doing enough for him. And I can’t imagine he removes JD and then puts him in his cabinet or something, to which I would expect JD to flip back to his pre-VP-audition stance on Trump and spread the word of what is happening “behind the curtain”.
