I think Kamala will win and win with a good margin. Trump is recycling all of the old grudges, project 2025 has been tied to his tail and honestly I think people outside of his rabid base are very, very tired of the constant negativity, the idiotic comparisons to communism he keeps launching out there (sound familiar?) and the difference between what he says he will do and what his legislative record showed he actually did. Populism usually ends up self destructing when people realize what it actually entails. I think people are also tired of the wealthy getting handouts while the poor struggles and the middle class disappears. Trump's rabid base believes he was better for the economy but anyone who actually takes the time to look knows better. I think this election will be one that is voted on by intelligence instead of rhetoric. At least I hope so. For the USA and for Canada. Trump losing will take a lot of wind out of Skippy's sails in Canada too.
I think the most remarkable thing of the switch was how smooth (for the lack of a better term) the transition was. No infighting, no bruising mini primary, no debate about policies. Getting this right, next to convincing Biden to step down, was a political masterpiece.
Then Harris ran an excellent search process for a VP candidate and made the best choice she could make. All of this put the Democrats in the best position possible for an incumbent government these days. And this is all against the backdrop of a failed assassination attempt on Trump (with a zero sympathy swing).
It is a real race now. I believe that at this moment anybody with a sound political mind would rather be in Harris’ shoes, than in Trump’s.
It’s crazy how the Democrats can claim they are defending democracy when they are coronating Kamala Harris with virtually zero input from the party rank and file. Well that’s not quite true. Democratic voters had a chance to vote for Kamala in the 2020 primaries and they passed. Her campaign was a flop, dropping out early after amassing a grand total of zero delegates despite being anointed by the party insiders as the favourite and heir apparent. So now all of a sudden it’s KAMALAMANIA vs Donald Trump, the consummate bullshit artist.
"The honest truth is, the switch did work, even if Kamala loses the election."
You could have put the period after "work". "The honest truth is the switch worked." I'm predicting Kamala will win the presidency. Trump lost in 2020 by millions of votes and he's not filling up stadiums now. He also picked a dud for a VP. He's also a convicted felon now, facing more criminal trials. Trump is a one term president whose stink lingers, that is all. He will not be the President again.
What remains to be seen is how many seats the Republican party gets. The GOP is rotten to the core and scarier than ever with their Project 2025 policy platform. The sooner the US rids itself of those scumbags the better.
