(Blaming a market crash strictly on the administration is of course untrue, as the American economic system has been working hard on building these very nasty time bombs for centuries. But it also continually highlights how vapid and idiotic the campaign messaging from the Democrats was only four years ago. 'You must vote Biden to stop the chaos caused by Trump.' But Biden-Harris have done nothing but ramp the chaos up to 11.)
Nice lies there, lad.
But hey, you've a traitor to shill for.

NV is useless to Trump and Harris so let's just ignore it.
MI is harder to win for Trump than WI/PA , and one of them is already good enough to win, so let's just ignore it.
Harris just has to win PA and WI which is not hard at all. Tossup.
Now, if the red states were willing to run free and fair elections, the only states with more than ten electoral votes likely to go for Trump would be Indiana and Tennessee.

Sounds like a good reason to open U.S. embassies in those red states lol. Then sanctions and coups. Then bombs.

Don't joke about it, or they'll actually do it...

Sliding further into politics vibing to be more approachable, we have this interview / discussion between Trump and Elon Musk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfBQoWxQaEM . This seems a good direction to take if the Democratic campaign is reverting to Bill Clinton tactics - fireside chats. It is also odd to see Trump talking not like a TV personality and more like some businessman. But they cover a lot of topics, and neither sounds like an extremist.
(I heard some UK journalist suggested putting out an arrest warrant on Musk for this... what a sad, tinpot country!)

Funny it was The Economist that uploaded it.
I'm shocked to say I generally agree with you. There is a place in an election for a conversation with a believer, it reveals a lot since the candidate is not "on guard". Musk should, instead of offering to interview Kamala, offer his platform to let Barack Obama interview her.

There is a whole lot Obama could be doing to boost the popularity of his party. For whatever reason, he does not seem to enjoy the spotlight very much...

Maybe Michelle doesn't trust him with Kamala.

So i guess Kim Reynolds (Iowa Gov) banned more books. https://www.iowapublicradio.org/educatio...ake-effect
Its one thing if they were banning straight up graphic material that you would find in a smut shop. Banning classics and books that teach certain lessons, along with other healthy looks at the subjects just rubs me the wrong way. I hope the rest of my state can think clearly and get her OWI anti-thc ass out of office.
