The US Election.

Thanks Wyllow3
... but it's just more of the same and those in his cult really don't care.

Truly, I think it's insignificant when faced with Conservatives and Reform speak up in favour of Trump here and in the USA, and the influences of social media. I'm not shocked or surprised that some want to go over and help out. They aren't there to affect policy or purport to represent the UK.

Where was the media outrage when Brit politicians attended and spoke at Trump rallies?

You mean Farage and who else?
They aren’t the present Labour government or their staff/ activists.
Seems to me that my Party cannot get its head round the fact that they’re not just in Opposition anymore.They need to grow up, be diplomatic and not interfere in any way at all.

Farage and two former UK prime ministers.

Aveline, Wyllow3 US citizen here. I had to laugh about the collective IQ of Americans supporting Republican candidate Trump - TRUE! Sometimes you just have to laugh at the absurdity of their choice… because if you don’t laugh the reality is sickening. His “threats” are dangerous to our freedoms and democracy.* His own previous administration, including military Joints Chief of Staff, have all turned against him and are warning the electorate of him being deranged and totally unfit for any office! We knew that.

Polls are close currently, but you cannot rely on polls either as they are deceptive - people lie on these surveys to throw off the trend. How many times have they been inaccurate when the final tally has been counted? I don’t believe in them.

There are closet voters on both sides! I do believe there will be many common sense Republicans to cast a vote against Trump this time because he’s inflicted such exhaustion and chaos in people’s minds, they’re sick of him! Especially women who are targeted in Project 2025 to have voting rights snd personal freedoms taken away. How would you like that?

Kamala Harris is surging right now from a grass roots perspective. She has a very strong ground game in place to get people out to vote. She happens to be the adult in this game right now. Trump has already placed people in each state’s election board to NOT CERTIFY the results (if KH wins…) is this chaos or not?

With Steve Bannon being released from prison shortly, he will run to Trump’s side for further meddling - but now he may find an adversary in Elon Musk. Every single one of them is unhinged. We’ll see how that works out.
Sorry this is so long. We’re trying to stay strong for YOU too‼️

Always good to hear from the US, Gundy.

Bannon versus Musk vying to be Trumps bestie friend, now that's an interesting one. but Musk has the money...

Are current chiefs of staff military wise actually making statements? Been aware of past ones commenting.

Trump already interfering in the election process - the concerns me a great deal as to what could happen.

A nice American couple we met on holiday were saying that they didn't know which would be worse - Trump winning or what he might do if he didn't win. Lose/lose for USA

Wyllow3 More are coming out close to the election, joining other past Republicans in Trump administration along with more military brass AND Federal Judges. The US Bar Association (Attorneys) also issued a statement about Trump’s unfitness for office. Many of Trump’s legal counsel have been either indicted, convicted or disbarred.

People previously close to Trump are the ones you have to listen to! People still supporting DT…. you know are part of his cult, because he’s running on a fascist platform.

After the Fox interview with KH independent political journalists seem to think Trump now has a better chance of winning😲

What do you think the non Trump supporter republicans will do on voting day Gundy, not vote at all, or closet vote for Harris, as that could make a big difference?

If I lived in a very pro Trump community I'd keep my mouth shut and wait till voting day, it must feel that dangerous in some places.

Me too Wyllow3. I sincerely hope the majority think like us.

There was a Harris advert that I saw a couple of weeks ago saying basically that when you cast your vote it is private and it said something like "your husband doesn't need to know".

It's difficult to know how Kennedy will affect voting as he's still on the ballot in some states including Michigan and Wisconsin. He's telling voters to vote for Trump but it does give some voters a chance to avoid Trump and Harris in some states. Hopefully if they do avoid Trump it will help Harris even if they vote for Kennedy but not necessarily as some reluctant Harris voters might also vote Kennedy.

Elon Musk is beyond disgusting. He is literally buying votes in Pennsylvania!

Musk to give away $1m per day to Pennsylvania voters

😡😡😡

Oreo Just the opposite! She got a healthy bump in support and the TV ratings were HUGE for that network! FOX NEWS is hostile territory for Harris but she was secure and confident enough to go up against them. It has paid off‼️

Casdon Once you become a Never-Trumper you can 1) vote for Harris 2) not vote at all 3) cast your ballot for third party or do a secret vote no one will ever know… But most prominent people have ENDORSED HER so they’ll vote for her and are campaigning for her. Just because you’re a Republican that hates Trump and will be crossing party line to vote for a Democrat this one time will not make you a Democrat! These people are far more concerned in saving our nation, our republic and our Democracy FIRST.

Wyllow3 and Aveline It has become dangerous for the brave prominent people who are supporting Harris as their lives and their families have been threatened by very misguided, mean and vicious MAGA cult members. (death threats) Best to just keep your head down till after the election.

NotSpaghetti That is a very good ad for Harris to put out, helping women who are married to MAGA understand that *if their conscience is telling them to vote for the candidate who will protect women’s rights and freedoms they have permission to do that secretly*‼️ No wife should vote in allegiance or in tandem with their husband if they disagree. Why should they?? Every woman is their own person.

foxie48 The ballots are messy in some states as they are not equal. So there is always Independents that will make a bonkers choice that might help one candidate or other. But it’s minimal damage - usually.

Wyllow3 Back to you - Musk is being investigated by Justice Dept now for essentially buying votes for Trump. We’ll see where this ends up. Just because you’re rich does not make you smart‼️ Duh…

(Once again - sorry this is long. Thank you for your curiosity and interest in the outcome of this election - the whole world is watching.)

If Harris should be blessed with a victory, this does not mean the end of MAGA. They’re not going anywhere. The cult movement is made up mostly of younger white men - who happen to identify with the bullying, cruel Trump - they’re all very aggrieved. And we should be prepared for them to keep a higher profile after this election, not going quiet and underground since January 6th insurrection four years ago.

We live in interesting times… and we’re all in this together.

Thanks Gundy for your excellent reporting on what is actually going on back home . People shouldn’t take to heart all the nasty gram reporting on the Daily Mail that is all in for Trump .

Thank you Gundy - this has been useful in learning how it looks from your side of the pond.

It must be a very worrying and uncomfortable time for you Gundy

Weekend take away - Trump praises Arnold Palmer's genitalia....

LATROBE, Pa. (AP) — Donald Trump’s campaign suggested he would begin previewing his closing argument Saturday night with Election Day barely two weeks away. But the former president kicked off his rally with a detailed story about Arnold Palmer, at one point even praising the late, legendary golfer’s genitalia.

Trump was campaigning in Latrobe, Pennsylvania, where Palmer was born in 1929 and learned to golf from his father, who suffered from polio and was head pro and greenskeeper at the local country club.

Politicians saluting Palmer in his hometown is nothing new. But Trump spent 12 full minutes doing so at the top of his speech and even suggested how much more fun the night would be if Palmer, who died in 2016, could join him on stage.

Arnold Palmer was all man, and I say that in all due respect to women,” Trump said. “This is a guy that was all man

Donald Trump will be the next president of the United States, the betting markets believe.

The bookies have rallied around the Republican candidate with the former president receiving his best odds since the end of July, analysis shows.

On Friday, the former president’s implied odds hit 59 per cent, the highest figure since July 30 – just two days before Democrat delegates began the formal process to endorse Kamala Harris.

Source: today’s Telegraph

President Trump brought an economic boom, international peace and security, working class wage growth, strong leadership, humour and goodwill. He disrupted the corporate influence of those who do not have the interests of the American people at heart.

He is going to win by a landslide.

From the Business section in the Telegraph today:

“Markets are rapidly ramping up their bets on a Trump presidency, and the result is a stronger dollar, surging interest rates on long-term government debt, a jump in cryptocurrency prices, and a new record high in gold prices.

The opinion polling website ‘FiveThirtyEight’ shows Kamala Harris’s lead over Trump in the polls is narrowing steadily. In late August, she had a 3.7 percentage point lead in the popular vote; today she is ahead by just 1.8 points.

Because of the structure of the US electoral college system, this means Trump is currently on track for victory. “It is all about the swing states. Even if the polls are accurate, there is a very strong risk that Trump becomes president,”

But right now it is a Democratic win that would take markets by surprise. “If Harris wins the presidency, even if she doesn’t get control of the Senate, that would be the bigger shock,”

If Trump somehow wins - God help America.

Well the fantastic PR by Trump at McDonald’s has driven the lefties absolutely crazy ...but they know it connects and is pure genius...
