What a blunder by Joe.

But I still personally think Harris will win.

If not then the UK is in for a difficult time as Trump threatening to put 30% tariffs on UK imports.

Poor Joe Biden I think he will be in a care home in a year or so. I feel for his family and what they will have to deal with, but the Democrats once they got him out of the race should have gagged him. My mother in law when she started her dementia path, would suddenly say to us f**k off for no reason, we could not take her places anymore, it was just random. Until this, I had never ever heard her utter a swear word.

I took this screenshot earlier. It does look like the experts think Trump will do well in the swing states.

New polling data suggests that new registered voters in the swing states tend to be women by a 2 to 1 ratio and more likely to vote for the Democrats and therefore Harris. I don’t think it’s going to be that close at all. Trump is toast.

I hope you're right. £121 million on the exchange has it 1.66 Trump 2.5 Harris. Thats a huge amount of opinon.
I'd like to take a punt but not sure I could handle the disappointment of losing money on Harris alongside the disappointment of the orange combover nutjob becoming President again.

Apologies greenmark, I didn’t post the link to the information I used to make my assumption. Read the whole article below.

History has shown and most experts agree that if you win PA then your chances of winning overall increase to 80%.

And PA has the most new female voters registering to vote by 2 to 1 margin. That’s probably over the issue of abortion rights. Therefore more likely to vote Democrat and for Harris.

No way the odds overall should be Trump 1.68 and Harris 2.5

If Trump and his team are already bitching non stop about "electoral fraud" almost certainly fictional electoral fraud that suggest to me that their internal polling is going badly.

Or its part of the not so "secret" plan to fire of loads of court cases sowing confusion over vote validity, win the senate (likely) and get the senate to declare Trump the winner irrespective of votes..
