Watch all the excitement on both sides over what is still a coin flip.

I think that will increase with exposure the vacuousness that is Harris.

[Jolly]

Today she said Trump was exhausted and cutting his schedule. That he did not have the energy to be President.

Trump did the Al Smith Dinner last night, Fox & Friends this early morning, two other events today and is in Michigan tonight for a rally.

Saw this today.

Obviously my prediction skills suck and I still think Harris will win by an awkwardly slim electoral margin, this should give folks like me major pause. If Biden barely won in 2020 (in terms of voters in swing states), and the margin is even closer this time…

[Jolly]

We all knew that "Joy" was temporary. Kamala-lama-ding-dong basked in the afterglow too !ong. She didn't get out and campaign, doing interviews, taking hard questions and thinking on her feet..You know, the things you do during primaries. The learning process.

She's gotten better. She didn't have to go far.

But is it too late?

........Trump ...cutting his schedule.

Its true

Trump cancels NRA speech and interviews with NBC and CNBC due to 'scheduling conflicts' — but goes on 'Fox & Friends'

...several interviews that Trump had scheduled this week were scrapped, including an interview with NBC and an appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box. And a sit-down with the Shade Room, a cultural website with a predominantly young Black audience that recently interviewed Harris, was reportedly nixed because, according to a Trump adviser, the Republican nominee was “exhausted.”

and

Meanwhile, the National Rifle Association announced Thursday that it has canceled an event in Savannah, Ga., that was set to feature Trump as its keynote speaker due to a campaign scheduling conflict.

Having said that, both candidates are keeping up crazy schedules. I am tired looking at their schedules.

I think the FOX interview hurt her.

I don’t think that shows up in the polls until next week. I think this is still just the results of the really bad Hurricane response, Israel/Iran, and her general incompetence.

I saw some guy interviewed on TV today, who said that he’s not voting for her.

Black guy said, “my grandfather always told me don’t trust a man who promises you something tomorrow when he had the power to do it yesterday. “

I don’t get it. That would apply to Trump who was actually president not Kamala who never has been.

She was delegated the border and internet broadband.

As a reminder, in January/February 2020, most people acknowledged that it had been a pretty good 4 year term, and even you acknowledged that as it stood, he would have won reelection.

[LuFins Dad]

As another reminder, this is the second election in a row that the Dem powers that be overrode the primary process to get the candidate they didn’t want removed.

Actually the third, but the Clinton thing was far more subtle, at least.

But they’re the party of Democracy. LMFAO.

[LuFins Dad]

RCP Polling Average had Kamala up 1.3% yesterday, and down to .2% this morning. That’s a huge drop over 24 hours.

[Copper]

I refuse to believe that anyone would vote for Ms. Harris.

No way, it can't happen.

[89th]

You know @LuFins-Dad I did predict this like a year ago: "Biden 321 electoral votes, Trump 217. Biden gets 79 million votes, Trump gets 69 million."

Except I forgot it was opposite day. Looks like it might be Trump getting 321 electoral votes (from 79 million votes).

Five at 60% or more.

So many people publicly criticizing a fascist just before he might come to power. I don't even know how evolution selected for such people. There's a good chance they'll all be in concentration camps in a few months, and they could have chosen so simply to avoid that fate - by simply not criticizing Trump. It's a wonder how they are the result of an unbroken chain of descendants.

Maybe they are just so courageous, that they accept the personal sacrifices they have made, in the name of truth, empathy, and democracy. I guess that must be it.
