Been a full-on Trump steam in the last few hours. Over 3 into 2.64. not sure of the cause, unless it's Derek hedging out some more of his enormous green... :mrgreen:
My brother's a spread betting guru and took advantage of the Biden steam but he's none the wiser about the Trump move.

Trump forever. Just needs to 'behead' those persons and organisations who want to derail a country to the advantage of those overseas. Exciting times ahead.

Probably something to do with Biden telling campaign donors that the race is closer than the polls suggest. What else is he going to say? 'No keep your money we don't need it, we're ahead in the polls! :)

The market will probably be nearer 50/50 as we get closer to the big day

Being called an idiot or other derogatory term by Trump must feel like accolade by now. :)

Biden has called a lid on campaigning until after Thursday night's debate, whereas Trump seems to be doing 2-3 rallies a day.

What a tit. People will think he hasn't got the energy to campaign!

I think so too and pretty sure he took a day or more off before the town hall...it's almost like it takes him days to prepare whereas Trump just rocks up on the night.

Looks like the steam on Trump is now well into rebound. Glad to report that I am now green across the board. :mrgreen:

Best thing to do is win the election, have a socially-distanced party and resign the next day. Harris can become the first female president, Biden can have a happy retirement and Trump can bugger off to his tower. :D

He'll probably have to sell his tower to help pay off the half a billion in loans that's coming due. He might have to share a loft with an artist!

Low-energy & gaffe prone Joe is comfortably ahead, no need to drain that energy when he is not scrambling from behind. No own goals from here and he wins.
