Just under 5 weeks to go, and the Trump side seems to be the one with slight momentum at this point (probably unavoidable to have a bit of a hangover after the initial Harris honeymoon). Betonline literally has this election as a coin flip as of this morning. Both candidates -110 (you can get 50-1 on any other candidate if you'd like to get spicy).
I wish they would have given both Trump and Kamala a blank map of the Middle East and Asia during the debates and asked them both if they were able to fill it in. I wouldn't be stunned at all if Harris couldn't do it, and I'd actually be stunned if Trump COULD do it. And, it's actually a fair question. If a world leader doesn't even know where in the world the countries are, they shouldn't be elected.
Can you? I actually tried on a world map and it's a lot tougher than it seems.Quote:

With 5 weeks to go, I find it ridiculous one side won't say who won the last one.Quote:

If Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego taught me anything as a kid, Asia was easy until the Soviet Union broke up. Identifying all the former states there would be my hardest part.Quote:

It's hard to understand why Republicans continue to allow this to get oxygen.
Because Republican state legislators are busy making it difficult for women to make their own health care decisions.
Therefore, in many states, it IS on the ballot.
It's pretty simple really. If you repeat the lie long enough, people believe it. Democrats have repeated over and over that the Republicans want to take away your rights (this sounds familiar) and insert a federal abortion ban.Quote:
