    Strategery? Trump and Vance have had a few blunders, so maybe it's a wise strategy to let the enemy defeat itself?

      It's less to do with the opposition and more to do with her. They don't want her making any blunders. They are checking and calling all the bets and we'll see how the hands compare in November.

        Agree with 89 and Horace. When the Democrats best campaigner is President Trump, why change a strategy that works? 🤷

        And if the polling trends more in favor of VP Harris, that "forces" President Trump to talk more, which, based on past history, will result in more stupid verbal talking.

        He is his own worst enemy.

          A populist might say "good for her". Speak directly to the people where they're at - social media. Letting elite journalists mediate your messaging to voters is so 2005.

            Kamala is speaking directly via social media? What's she saying? Got links?

              Yeah they have quite a social media presence. I see them on X and FB, paid ads. I don't follow campaigns.

                      She is the least defined candidate ever, and her team is content to keep it that way.

                              Actually, she's a media creation. Her campaign is fueled by Big Money and she is buying an enormous amount of advertising. It's crafted, polished and ubiquitous on the airwaves.

                              She's running Biden's Basement Strategy and catering to the LIV, particularly the gibmedats and the college educated suburban women.

                              I've watched Trump do a townhall, a one-hour Hannity interview and the Gutfeld! show. In all of them, he's still Trump, but he churns out ideas, both good and bad. And he makes observations...Last night he talked about the Evangelical vote and the 2nd Amendment vote, and why he's puzzled by lower voter turnout in those groups than expected.

                              So, while Trump does come out with some goofy stuff, that brain is spinning and thinking pretty well for a guy his age, especially as juxtaposed with Harris.

                              “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                              Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

                                By what margin did Trump win the debate again? 92 to 7 he said?

                                      It's not a poll, nor a simple average. it's Nate Silver's model. And he updates it every election season with lessons from the previous election.

                                        Yeah, yeah. I give Nate a lot of credit for giving Trump a 28% chance in 2016. His model did a lot worse in 2020. He had Trump at 10%, but I think we can all agree that the swing states were far tighter than the model thought likely. I tend to think a 50/50 split still leans Trump’s way.
