Seemed to go relatively well. Few ‘gotcha’ questions that she stumbled over a little but then she also bit back the few times they tried to cover for Trump, and he also seemed to just try and talk over her a lot whenever she went hard on Trump but she kept at it and didn’t let him stop her.

wasn't it all about her trying to distance herself from Biden? The big problem for Harris is how unpopular Joe Biden is.

For a minute I thought it was suggesting Labour was going to advise the Democrats on how to "sort your housing". Which I guess is one way to make an impression, not least given how UK housing policy is seen as a bit of a maze.

She's still trying desperately to be taken seriously huh.

momentum is with trump...they like his nasty anti-immigrant racist tax cutting shtick.

[charlierc]

Is momentum with Trump? Compared to a few weeks ago, they've picked up a little, but I genuinely think both campaigns this week have just looked exhausted.

Think every US election gets a modicum of extreme analysis to figure out what happened. Even moreso now that one side has a "We win or it's not a real election" attitude.

I think at this stage of the process, the polls don't matter nearly as much as the ground game. The field offices, canvassers, voter registration, money spent on ads and campaign infrastructure. That's where the Demonrats are excelling right now. Trump gaining a point or two within the margin of error is pretty meaningless.

 

I mean, it's shocking it's even close given the state of the man, but I reckon the crazier he gets, the more low-information voters are attracted to him as a non-politician, anti-establishment figure.

It is shocking...but it's also down to the basics, the economy, crime, immigration..and incumbents are getting kicked out everywhere and populist right are doing well. Majority of women are supporting Harris, and men supporting Trump, how much that matters on polling day we'll see. Also have to see if Democrats throwing more money at it and campaigning in those swing states makes the difference, may well do. Trump is amazing though, he doesn't even have to say anything, just feels he can stand there swaying to the music for 40 minutes, and maybe he's right. Anyway, still looks too close to call, personally I think that favours Trump because quiet Trump voters, Republicans who don't like Trump but like tax cuts and think Harris is too left, and young pro palestine vote not coming out for Harris. Hope to be proven wrong on Nov 6th or whenever we get the results.
