    Trump and Biden at -110 today...

    This coronavirus business is really making a dent.

    I need to make the Trump bet but I somehow have to believe he'll recover from this mess?  This is tough.

    Actually trump lies and his gullible base believes him. Trouble is the independents and the real  honest to god republicans (yes there till a lot out there) don't and won't vote for him again. Can't speak for other states but all voters in PA can now vote by mail . trump will lose in PA.

    It's because the odds are we have a recession,  and incumbents don't do really well when there is a recession

    This is true gambling.  Can't really cap politics haha.  To be honest, I've been waiting for this moment for the lines to drop a bit but there is so much time between now in the election it's not that easy with the fluctuating ass lines.

    I am even believing the Trump is bulletproof.  If he somehow makes it out of this, he absolutely has to be favorite again.

    This latest virus will run it's course and be long gone by election day...what will not be gone on election day is the searing memory of seeing Joe Biden get destroyed by Trump in the debate(s)...I say "debate(s) with the "s" in parenthesis because after the first one...I'm almost positive that Biden's handlers will not allow him to go to any more after that...

    The drubbing will be so severe...the comedy that will come out of that debate...I'm chuckling right now just thinking about it...

    Are you a scientist with some insider information or is it wishful thinking?

    Psssst I work in the industry and I can tell you that this is not going away anytime soon unless they get ahold of carriers infecting multiple people.

    Will be stunned if Trump doesn't win again, unless something happens between now and then.

    79% of Floridians over 45 voted for Biden today.

    When we voted today, there was only one couple in front of us. We expected to stand in a long line but we were told people has been steadily staggering into the polling place. 

    They expect a large turnout in November and will be expanding the location in anticipation.

    Of course politics can be capped.  What a ridiculous statement to make.  I already discussed Trump's chances quite some time ago but perhaps now is a good moment to bring up that conversation again.  Trump needs to garner a greater share of the vote overall.  Chris Wallace tried explaining this on Fox News but the viewers don't comprehend math and so they made fun of him.  Let me explain why he's right.  Republicans turn their constituents out at a very high percentage rate.  As a result, they do not benefit quite as much when voter turnout increases.  So when voter turnout increases, it forces Trump to need to become more popular and to expand his base.  I had a discussion with a new customer of mine a couple weeks ago.  He voted for Klobuchar.  He's an independent who leans towards centrist Democrats.  I can gather that from him calling Bernie a far-left loon (sigh).  Anyway, I pointed out that Trump did become more popular after impeachment, although I have my own distinct opinion about his popularity.  This customer asserted that it would go down after Trump's handling of the coronavirus and I agree.  Next, Trump needs to expand his base because he narrowly won a few swing states.  Republicans make him sound like he had the biggest victory ever for propaganda purposes, but the math dictates how close it was, even with over 40% of eligible citizens not voting. 

     

    Trump has been extremely partisan and Republicans don't think they need to compromise because they're so popular.  That's bad strategy but whatever.  I estimate that virtually everyone who wanted to vote for Trump already did it.  He's quite polarizing and so I'm sorry but I don't believe anyone really sat out in 2016.  They either voted for him or against him, not to mention many Bernie voters refused to vote for Hillary.  That leads me to conclude Trump can barely exceed his prior numbers overall.  That's not good enough for the general election.  I saw he was -160 recently on Bovada and although that website juices anyway, my first thought is the number looked overpriced.  If Trump does somehow win, which I highly doubt, he'll need to barely beat Biden.  He's just not that popular and he should shut the hell up some days, but if you haven't noticed, he has to be the center of attention.  That's the Narcissistic Personality Disorder.  I find it highly amusing that anyone would have confidence in the guy.  However, I do admit many of the customers I service are Republicans and so I have to pretend that Trump is halfway normal.  They wouldn't be able to handle it if I told them that Trump is a complete moron and sounds ridiculous.  I have no confidence in the guy and wouldn't trust him for a single damn thing.

    Nice thoughtful take on the upcoming general election in Nov. Guess I can remember you had shared the similar thoughts before 2016 election if I am right.

    These battle ground states are the name of the game. Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Arizona, Florida and perhaps Texas appear to be the decisive factor who wins on Nov. 3. I think, the coronavirus pandemic will weigh heavily into voters' mind when they go to the polling booth. Who offers better healthcare platform for this country will likely to win it in Nov.

    Democrats in America have their work cut out for them.

     

    with all their failures during the past 3 years, they have basically rendered themselves obsolete as a ruling and or functioning party. The former President will not even risk himself by supporting a running candidate. He appears to be enjoying his windfalls ov 140 million dollars since leaving the political arena. All the people he was supposed to have helped while in office were left far behind.

     

    It is quite feasible the Republican party can take both the House and Senate. With people like AOC, Ilhan and the Squad, Americans perseverance will halt the spread of “far left” politics.

    This is probably the most rational post I've read in the political forums.  My factor into thinking Trump will win in Nov is due to low voter turnout not because the guy is popular.  Trump has done diddly squat to expand his base which is odd but whatever he seems to think his strategy will work the general.  Joe Biden needs to win over people which is going to be very difficult to do IMO.

    The Dems are like the Liberals in Canada...they find new ways to fail.

    Any party that keeps Ilhan Omar on their team following the multiple hatred and ignorant gaffs she's had in a very short period of time really shows the hypocrasy of their party.

    Joe Biden may go down as the least likeable Dem nominee in modern day history.

    Memories are short when it suits a dialogue.

    In 2018, the Democrats gained 40 seats in Congress.

    In 2020, I believe we'll gain more seats in the House, get the WH back and possibly win the Senate

    I could see the gains in the legislative for sure to keep tabs on Trump.  I don't know how you're so optimistic about Joe Biden though.

    Well kaga, I'm optimistic of the country gaining our leadership role back in the world & don't believe that will be achieved with Trump in our WH. 

    I also believe Biden will select qualified personnel to head up the various Secretary positions and not run the WH like it's a family picnic.

    Well kaga, I'm optimistic of the country gaining our leadership role back in the world & don't believe that will be achieved with Trump in our WH. 

    I also believe Biden will select qualified personnel to head up the various Secretary positions and not run the WH like it's a family picnic.

    I don’t know for sure of course. Appears to me, the Republican party will not only win the White House for a second term, but take both house and senate.

     

    I believe this will happen unprecedented; because Americans cannot be fooled by the democrat buffoonery. Many fence sitters and radical dems will secretly vote trump and say they voted left. Thats just my opinion.

     

    The job being done by a President under attack his whole term has been unbelievable. If not for the virus, the economy would be championed by everyone. Everyone except the democrat party that is. The Left have exposed themselves as a angry, power hungry gang. They have failed in every endeavor. Have even gone so low that they filled a bill to fight a pandemic with pork and beans.

     

    Clinton was impeached and left in office because the economy was doing well. Trumps economy just defys logic. Especially during a partisan and fake impeachment.
