Can't believe we have 5 more days of this. The betting markets are finally starting to show a bit of volatility. In the last 24 hours overall a creep in Harris's direction.

Trump -190
Harris +165

Polymarket has Trump with a 65.0% chance to win as of this morning. You can see current odds and the trend here: https://polymarket.com/elections

4 days to go! Nice to have a weekend of college and NFL football to distract us (and college basketball Monday!). Betting markets are edging a bit towards Harris (and Polymarket was actually a pretty big jump towards Harris).

Trump -180
Harris +155

Polymarket has Trump with a 61.6% chance to win as of this morning. You can see current odds and the trend here: https://polymarket.com/elections

It seems MSNBC is runing footage of a Pro-Hitler rally at MSG from 1939 alongside a video of Trump's. Tim Walls makes the same reference in his latest speech as did Hillary on CNN. Neither mentions the Israeli flags on display the Trump rally or the fact that Bill Clinton had his DNC convention there.

And this is why the Left will lose. Everyone knows it's a bunch of crap.

It's pathetic. In addition to being totally indecent, it's also totally moronic as a political tactic. If you don't like what a guy says and does, then stick to being critical of what he actually says and does. Otherwise you just look like an asshat, and the stuff that needs to be legit criticized isn't. It's not as if Trump does not have an entire catalog of things that he's actually said and done that they could be legit critical of.

The Left is getting completely out-trolled and outclassed. By Donald Trump. Who is anything but a classy guy. Let that sink in for a second.

I feel Trump should be in prison, but I also feel the Left deserves to lose to him. I'm not sure how to reconcile that. Not that it matters because going to win regardless of how I feel about it, so....

I don't even know if I want to vote. I'm not even kidding.

"We need to calm down the rhetoric"
"How did we become so divided?"

In my bubble, there are a lot of people that believe every word that comes out of MSNBC and CNN's mouth. The public is very very stupid, and I'm not sure if everyone knows it's a bunch of crap. Honestly, there is probably a greater amount that believes that if Trump wins, democracy in America has fallen and Trump will ascend to dictator.

I mean there are people on the left today who believe trump said that Liz Cheney should be shot and killed.

It hard to listen to his rhetoric without thinking he's actively encouraging violence.
We saw what happened on Jan 6th. Hard to think of that as a "day of love."

It’s really not hard to take what he said and understand it. He’s calling her a warmonger, and if she loves to send our troops into war so easily then she should take up some arms and see what it’s like. Pretty self explanatory
