I think you’ll find the term is “Bigly”

Or “Yuge”

Has Jeffrey Archer got ot right?

I’d vote for Kamala Harris if I had a vote,” he says. “I couldn’t vote for Trump but I think he’ll win. Three quarters of Americans are not intelligent.”

He's certainly right on the last bit.

Trump has never won the popular vote, even when he (possibly) won the election in 2016, so there’s definitely not a correlation between intelligence as defined by Archer, and votes for Trump.

The only groups where Trump is ahead are non-college educated white men, and conservative evangelical Christians - the latter because they’ve been schooled from the pulpit to see elections as a single-issue contest about abortion.

Women, of all levels of education, and blacks, again, of all levels of education, are Harris, sometimes by quite a hefty majority. I saw a table breaking this down the other day, I’ll see if I can find it again.

An Ohio woman whose police report was used to power racist rumors about Haitian immigrants stealing and eating neighborhood cats has admitted her pet was found in her home, just days after she reported her Haitian neighbors to local police.

Baseless reports about missing pets in Springfield, Ohio gained national attention after Donald Trump parroted the rumor during his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris last Tuesday.

“In Springfield, they’re eating the dogs,” he said. “The people that came in, they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there. And this is what’s happening in this country.”

Despite the former president receiving an instant fact-check from moderator David Muir, his unfounded anti-immigrant rhetoric continued to circulate online and in the media, backed by several of his campaign surrogates. Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), doubled down on the misinformation during multiple media appearances this past weekend.

But the day before the Trump-Harris debate, Springfield City Manager Bryan Heck had explicitly debunked the rumor to a Vance aide, according to a Thursday report from the Wall Street Journal.

When the Journal approached Vance’s team about the cat-eating claim, a spokesperson provided a police report from a Springfield resident who accused her Haitian neighbors of being responsible for her cat going missing in late August.

But when the outlet contacted the person who filed the report, Anna Kilgore, she told the paper that her pet, Miss Sassy, was found in her basement days after she contacted the police.

Kilgore, who was wearing a Trump shirt and hat when the Journal spoke with her, told reporters that she had since apologized to her Haitian neighbors…

… Another Springfield resident, whose Facebook post began the pet-eating rumor that Kilgore’s police report ostensibly proved, has apologized for inciting a backlash against her city.

Speaking to NBC News on Friday, Erika Lee admitted she had no firsthand knowledge of any pets being kidnapped by people from Springfield’s Haitian immigrant community, let alone being eaten.

No Chris there is alot of dishonesty going on.....

They kinda cheated to get Donny in..... I think its strange Donny is mad the election was stoilen in 2020 when he knows he didnt get in fairly either!!

The whole voting thing died in 2016 in my opinion..........

Wheather Donny gets back in THIS YEAR is unknown....I guess it depends on which side is stronger......

Could be fun!

But the fact that JD Vance did so well on the undercard may just entice Donald Trump to accept the offer of another bout against Kamala Harris because - as we well know - he does not like being outshone.

My problem is that Harris is to closely connected to Old Joe. From my point of view, my family and I would be better off with Trump. Which says alot.Your break down does not have a great bearing on the result, as the blue coller vote along the religious right will likely carry the swing states So my money is on Trump.

I doubt anyone except a few cronies would be better off with Trump as he is economically illiterate. More worryingly, he has a disdain for democracy as his convinctions demonstrate. He would waste tax payers' money chasing judges who've followed due process and putting people in charge based on how much the fawn to him and not on their abilities, making the US the laughing stock of the World.

And if you don't want another old politician in power, don't given your vote to Trump.

Biden is a bit useless in the Middle East but the US currently has an economy the rest of the world looks on with envy:

US economy smashes expectations with 254,000 jobs added in September

The US economy added 254,000 jobs in September, far outstripping expectations, in a sign of the labour market’s resilience as the Federal Reserve considers how rapidly to cut interest rates.

The figure from the Bureau of Labor Statistics was above expectations of economists polled by Reuters of 140,000 and compared with an upwardly revised gain of 159,000 jobs in August.

The Fed last month cut its benchmark interest rate by half a percentage point to pre-empt any significant weakening of the labour market.

The figure suggests the Fed is on course to pull off a so-called soft landing for the US economy, which has weathered the worst period of high inflation in a generation while maintaining robust growth and strong employment.

What do you base that on?

Which of his convictions demonstrate that? I thought he was only convicted of falsifying business records?

He would waste tax payers' money chasing judges who've followed due process and putting people in charge based on how much the fawn to him and not on their abilities, making the US the laughing stock of the World.

The opinion of you……..and you are ……as far as I know…..not the most eminent political commentator out there.

Biden is a bit useless

Biden hasn’t been in charge for ages, he’s been ousted by his own party, as he is not fit to run for reelection, but deemed ok to remain in position until February 25?

[Stephen]

Biden chose to not stand for re-election and is still very much in charge. He is not too unfit to run the country at all.
