Betfair thinks that Trump is about 5 times more likely to win than Biden

Imagine not voting for Trump, I can't imagine myself voting for Scamhala, is she even black? Or is she Indian this time? I can't remember, let me check the Wayback Machine:

Wait what?

kamala2.webp


Is Jamaica in Africa?

kamala3.webp


And what is this?
kamala4.webp

So what is she?
 
You greatly overestimate the IQ of the average American voter sadly...lol.
There are so many ridiculous things with this election and the Dems, but the biggest is that Kamala is running as though she hasn't been involved one iota in the last four years

She talks like she's going to replace a Trump administration and how bad things currently are. On that alone, how could anyone vote for her?!

And the worst kind of voters are the ones that stay tied to a political party for a lifetime. Typically inherited from their parents. Most of the time the party is diametrically opposed to what it once stood for, yet they're still voting for it?

I quite like Andrew Tates theory that poor people, immigrants and women don't actually vote. People just presume they would vote dem, so they just get counted in there.

It's easy - most poor people vote left, most rich people vote centre-right. Post-Covid the gap widened, so there are many more poor sad people who will vote for the most leftist ideology possible. The same is happening in the UK, USA, EU, Latin America etc.

Regarding Trump-Harris - it's a pain to watch, both are terrible and comparing with 2012 Obama-Romney election it feels sad how low the bar has dropped.

Anyone remember Hilary Clinton Vs Donald Trump debate? Media was telling us Hilary won it. But who cares it didn't end well for Hilary.

I met some Americans here in Bahamas and I asked them who they are voting for and they said Trump. I asked why and they said they don't trust Kamala as she doesn't have any kids :confused:. Good luck with the election folks thu&¤#.

The three-monkey experiment! smi(&% rof/% Now, it's been rewritten (I don't know by who) to the five-monkey experiment, but the gist still stands: It's hard to break "inherited" habits.
I quite like Andrew Tates theory
A lot of people hate on this guy, but this guy was an absolute savage way before social media became a thing. Google "Andrew Tate knocks out angry German."

Absolutely f*ck that guy and I hope he burns in H3LL! He's the one who started this whole FATCA BS. I hope "Big Mike" gives him hemorrhoids! smi(&%

None of you have any understanding of Trump or Harris - ZERO.

Firstly, both are puppets. Trump is the chosen puppet of the status quo businesses, so big oil, casino, agriculture, automotive, and so on. He is from this group himself being in real estate. He wants lower corporate taxes (understand this is only for corporations not pass thru entities) and wants to repeal the subsidies given to big tech and semi-conductor businesses. He spews idiotic word vomit such as that TSMC steals US technology and is a Taiwanese not American company and that the US is stupid for giving them subsidies. He is wrong, TSMC has immense nexus to the US and is virtually a US company. If anything, US is the thief of technology and has always been when companies are invited to do business in the US.

Furthermore, and most importantly, the US is finished as a hegemon. The only possible chance of competing with China is in big tech and semi-conductors not manufacturing. The infrastructure, culture, and time is simply not there to compete with China on manufacturing regardless of however much money is thrown at it. Now onto the democrats, notice how I mention the collective not the puppet Harris, have proposed a plan called the CHIPS act. You can Google it, it is basically guaranteeing thru subsidies and other direct and indirect assistance that the US remains peer or surpasses China in the Cold War 2.0. This is the main reason the world's wealthiest people support democrats and the corresponding woke causes. The causes the average person cannot understand such as tampons in mens bathrooms, giving puberty blockers to children, and the rest of it all. The best investment is tech, there is growth, there is potential, unlike big oil and dinosaur industries. For the government to guarantee the success and growth of these investments that are already good investments is the best possible outcome for the asset rich.

The CHIPS act will be funded obviously with inflation and taxes, taxes of corporations in the US, hence why you see the status quo and associated benefactors such as hedge fund managers (they cannot afford even 0.5% of a trillion dollar tech company) supporting Trump. The taxes will be passed down to what remains of the US middle class. This will lead to further decline in the status quo businesses. The same hedge fund managers e.g., Bill Ackman are now supporting Trump after claiming he destroyed democracy a few years ago. All due to their own vested interests nothing more.

The game changes all the time. None of the *ullshit seeded to the commoners that make up the populace is relevant; woke, abortion, it's just hicks in work boots and blue haired freaks arguing over this. The elite fly above it all. There is no woke anywhere in any upper middle class or in any affluent city or suburb in the US. It simply does not exist. The supposed crime waves and other dysfunctions are too non-existent even in San Francisco, New York, and. Chicago in upper middle class or affluent neighborhoods.

To those moaning and groaning about FATCA. For the asset rich and those with big businesses in the US, US taxes are a small price to pay for access to the type of capital you get access to in the US. FATCA only prevents direct capital flight for the average Joe. The rich are still able to move money out of the US easily and if it all collapses, they'll still be asset rich. Renouncing incurs a signifiant penalty and that makes little sense for those that don't have any tax liabilities in the US anyway due to borrowing against unrealized gains or shielding via "donations" to charities. In essence the system is functioning exactly as it was designed to.

Ok, but I don't see anywhere in this thread where anyone has made claims to the contrary of what you just wrote? So why does everyone have ZERO understanding? Plenty of accurate discourse in what you just wrote...
 
"Harris sounds retarded", "Trump sounds handicapped", "Trump sounds better because Harris is dumb", bla bla, hyper focus on Harris and Biden, neither of which are really relevant, so yes, in essence ZERO understanding. No point in arguing back and forth, don't get triggered by the statement that most don't understand US politics or the candidates, by many of the posts and responses one can reasonably conclude that most do not understand. There is indeed an endless flood of misinformation and narratives designed to trigger emotions and prevent understanding, so it is not surprising many do not, it is not to say that anyone is incapable.
 
He tries hard to follow his advisers’ orders.
Whereas Kamala is outright retarded.
I have a hard time believing Kamala has courtroom experience as a prosecutor; she cannot think on her feet, and any question that takes her slightly off a rehearsed talking point goes unanswered. She must have been on the simplest of cases imaginable.

All she really has are lame platitudes about helping the middle class, and then now and again, she's got some stupid line that comes from her Marxist father, "unburdened by what has been". But she has zero say in any policy, just a deep state puppet with her neo-con handlers running the show.

Trump is obviously not as sharp as he was 4-8 years ago; after all, he's 78, but in terms of choices, you'd have to go with him. He'd have to make some decent appointments if he gets in, MacGregor as secretary of defence being one.

We were discussing about two guys, not of what they represent

Yes, but I fail to see where anyone has said anything contrary to what you just wrote in the earlier post? The question was why has Trump overtaken Harris. You just chimed in with a random garble of thoughts about the US being finished as a hegemonic power to people supposedly moaning about FATCA. We were discussing the individual candidates, not who they represent, who funds them or pulls their strings...

I cannot have any reasonable thought provocative conversation with someone who foolishly believes Trump is the better candidate based on the fact that he is more coherent. As for random garble, your posts have no value whatsoever, short of validating your bias about Trump because you've taken a liking to his on screen presence, way of speaking and supposed intellectual superiority over Harris, none of which is remotely relevant. As for FATCA, it was mentioned above, someone went off on a power rant about Obama and FATCA. Once again, little understanding of why it is in place and who benefits from it.

I would choose every day to have lunch with a successful entrepreneur rather than with a prosecutor. That’s all I know about the two guys in question.
