Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

I mean its gotta be close for that to be relevant. I sure af hope its been sobering to BM how well Kamala has been doing post Biden. Trump is actually deeply unpopular and there was no reason for the Democrats to have ever not been leading in this election. Biden was a completely unforced error.
So I think its realistic and necessary for Kamala to have a convincing victory, and I think she's on the road to demonstrate that.
The biggest difference is that right now, Trump is not the president. In the week before J6 when it was all shaping up, it was clear he was going to try to do everything to not leave power. He should have been arrested on January 7th. That all is what it is.
BM as in taking a shit? Seriously though, what does this mean?
How the hell do you figure? If he were that unpopular, wouldn't he be trailing in the polls by over 20 points instead of by less than 5? The fact that it's anywhere near a close race scares the hell out of me as I very much think it should.
Your comments here just don't make sense to me. I feel like you're acknowledging points made that nullify yours, but proceeding to defend your points anyhow, saying essentially "nah it's fine since Trump isn't president and will lose it's all fine."
And if SCOTUS decides to make an unconstitutional ruling to overturn a result with a big safe margin, the dems have to be prepared for prosecuting for treason. After the Gore v Bush decision and the current everything, it's perfectly plausible.
