rolandsmartin: "So when will Donald Trump bring his lame ass on @MSNBC? When will you politicos demand that?"

reply by Simon Rosenberg: "Trump can’t do a debate, 60 Minutes, CNBC or MSNBC or because he is bat **** crazy and his campaign is hiding him from any engagement with someone who may ask him real questions. He is a big blubbery burnt orange babyman."

Peter Wehner: "My take: Bret Baier has rarely looked as bad (or tendentious) as he did in his interview with Kamala Harris. On the flip side, this was one of her best interviews. She dominated Bret. All in all it was quite a bad day for MAGA world's most important media outlet."

Early voting numbers don't bode well for Trump in Michigan: data expert

The CEO of a data analyst company is sounding the alarm for Donald Trump about early voting numbers coming out of Michigan. Tom Bonier took to X on Tuesday to show the raw numbers of early ballots. The data doesn't show who is winning or losing, but gives a clear early picture of the voters'...

Among [Target Smart CEO Tom Bonier's] findings was that the number of female voters has dramatically increased when compared to elections in 2020 and 2022.

"A lot of that is being driven by huge turnout from Black women. Black voters overall are accounting for a substantially larger share of the votes cast thus far, relative to the same point in '20 or '22," he also said.

Yeah, I don't think the Univision townhall went great.

Went about as well as Trump's rally in Pennsylvania where he danced awkwardly for 40 minutes straight.

Man, reading all these articiles, i have zero idea what will happen in 20 days,, i dont believe polls, as they have been swinging wildly the last couple weeks, Harris goes from +6 Nationally to Trump +2, come on, now she is basically trailing everywhere in a week, Trump as done nothing to justify these sort or massive swings in polls, if anything he hurt himself more than anything and that some how put him in the lead, while Kamala as been killing every interview and rally, im having a tough time buying these polls.

I guess it just depends on which poll you look at. Some of them skew to the right (like Polymarket, which is pretty much just a betting website, I think), which is why Polymarket says Trump is ahead in every Swing State, which is probably false.

I think most of those polls that show Trump in such a commanding lead are there to try and discourage the other side from voting. I know Republicans tried it in 2020 and 2022 and I guess they're trying it again this year, too.
