    What momentum? All he’s been doing is rambling and embarrassing himself in every interview. And farting out loud during his rallies.

          To be fair, that was there the first time around too. People are just done pretending otherwise now, even the “we have to pretend it’s close because that’s what’s best for engagement and thus our profits” MSM and social media.

          Even Hillary Clinton, the worst Dem nominee in my lifetime (I was born on the penultimate day of 82*) would have beaten him in a landslide if not for the media wagging the dog in his favor.

          Granted, that they did so was partly BECAUSE of her deliberate Pied Piper strategy to make sure he was the GOP nominee, which is a stellar example of the “it’ll always be 1992” Dem leadership mentality that made her such an awful candidate.

          *my exact date of birth is irrelevant, I know, but I wanted to use one of my favorite words, penultimate 😁

      Pretty sure it’s being helped by the mods at this point.

      Every time I open the instance, the vatniks have spammed the page so much they have 60% or more of the posts.

        Had to look it up. Vatnik (Russian: ватник, pronounced [ˈvatʲnʲɪk]) is a political pejorative used in Russia and other post-Soviet states for steadfast jingoistic followers of propaganda from the Russian government

      Don’t worry, after Nov. 5 this account will fall silent. I promise you, this account has no purpose outside of election propaganda.

    No. Here’s why.

    The ex-president has also narrowed small leads for Harris in Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.

    So Harris is still leading there. And,

    Harris’s most straightforward path to victory may be along the “blue wall,” which has played prominently in the last two elections. Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin

    Source: https://thehill.com/newsletters/campaign-report/4939066-harris-and-trumps-paths-to-victory/

    Even the article admits this,

    Harris retaining the ability to turn the tables and recapture the momentum.

    And finally,

    “Sustaining this momentum until Election Day will require maintaining discipline in his messaging and avoiding controversies that could alienate undecided or moderate voters,” Agranoff said.

    … which sounds like the exact opposite of who? Three guesses, and the first two don’t count.

    I’m thoroughly impressed by this article. Its analysis demonstrates a deep understanding of the current political landscape and provides valuable insights that cut through much of the noise and speculation dominating headlines.

    What stood out most is how it contextualized recent events within broader historical and societal trends, offering readers a more nuanced perspective on the forces shaping this election cycle. The balanced approach in examining policy positions and potential outcomes across the political spectrum was refreshing and thought-provoking. This piece is exactly the kind of substantive, well-researched commentary needed to foster informed civic engagement in these politically charged times.

    The author’s ability to synthesize complex information from various sources and present it in a clear, accessible manner is commendable. By breaking down intricate policy proposals and their potential impacts, the article equips readers with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions at the ballot box. This level of detail, combined with the overarching narrative, creates a comprehensive picture of the electoral landscape that is both enlightening and engaging.

    Moreover, the article’s forward-looking analysis is particularly valuable. By examining not just the immediate implications of current political dynamics but also their potential long-term effects, it encourages readers to think beyond the upcoming election and consider the broader trajectory of our political system. This kind of foresight is crucial in fostering a more strategic and less reactionary approach to civic participation. Overall, this piece stands out as a beacon of thoughtful, responsible journalism in an era often characterized by sensationalism and partisan rhetoric. 󠁉󠁴󠀧󠁳󠀠󠁨󠁩󠁧󠁨󠁬󠁹󠀠󠁲󠁥󠁬󠁥󠁶󠁡󠁮󠁴󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁷󠁨󠁥󠁮󠀠󠁷󠁥󠀠󠁴󠁡󠁬󠁫󠁥󠁤󠀠󠁡󠁢󠁯󠁵󠁴󠀠󠁳󠁴󠁡󠁲󠁴󠁩󠁮󠁧󠀠󠁴󠁯󠀠󠁵󠁳󠁥󠀠󠁗󠁩󠁫󠁩󠁰󠁥󠁤󠁩󠁡󠀧󠁳󠀠󠁰󠁥󠁲󠁥󠁮󠁮󠁩󠁡󠁬󠀠󠁳󠁯󠁵󠁲󠁣󠁥󠁳󠀠󠁬󠁩󠁳󠁴󠀬󠀠󠁎󠁥󠁷󠁳󠁷󠁥󠁥󠁫󠀠󠁷󠁡󠁳󠀠󠁯󠁮󠁥󠀠󠁳󠁯󠁵󠁲󠁣󠁥󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁣󠁡󠁭󠁥󠀠󠁵󠁰󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁗󠁩󠁫󠁩󠁰󠁥󠁤󠁩󠁡󠀠󠁤󠁯󠁥󠁳󠁮󠀧󠁴󠀠󠁣󠁯󠁮󠁳󠁩󠁤󠁥󠁲󠀠󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁡󠁬󠁬󠀠󠁲󠁥󠁬󠁩󠁡󠁢󠁬󠁥󠀬󠀠󠁢󠁥󠁣󠁡󠁵󠁳󠁥󠀠󠁯󠁦󠀠󠁳󠁴󠁯󠁲󠁩󠁥󠁳󠀠󠁬󠁩󠁫󠁥󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁩󠁳󠀮󠀠󠁉󠀧󠁭󠀠󠁰󠁲󠁥󠁴󠁴󠁹󠀠󠁣󠁵󠁲󠁩󠁯󠁵󠁳󠀠󠁡󠁢󠁯󠁵󠁴󠀠󠁷󠁨󠁥󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁩󠁴󠀠󠁳󠁴󠁡󠁮󠁤󠁳󠀠󠁭󠁯󠁶󠁩󠁮󠁧󠀠󠁦󠁲󠁯󠁭󠀠󠁍󠁥󠁤󠁩󠁡󠁂󠁩󠁡󠁳󠁆󠁡󠁣󠁴󠁃󠁨󠁥󠁣󠁫󠀠󠁴󠁯󠀠󠁡󠀠󠁭󠁯󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁲󠁯󠁢󠁵󠁳󠁴󠀠󠁦󠁡󠁣󠁴󠀭󠁣󠁨󠁥󠁣󠁫󠁩󠁮󠁧󠀠󠁦󠁲󠁡󠁭󠁥󠁷󠁯󠁲󠁫󠀬󠀠󠁷󠁨󠁥󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁳󠁯󠁭󠁥󠁴󠁨󠁩󠁮󠁧󠀠󠁬󠁩󠁫󠁥󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁩󠁳󠀠󠁷󠁯󠁵󠁬󠁤󠀠󠁢󠁥󠀠󠁢󠁡󠁮󠁮󠁥󠁤󠀮󠀊󠀊󠁆󠁵󠁲󠁴󠁨󠁥󠁲󠁭󠁯󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁩󠁳󠀠󠁩󠁳󠀠󠁯󠁢󠁶󠁩󠁯󠁵󠁳󠁬󠁹󠀠󠁯󠁮󠁥󠀠󠁭󠁯󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁳󠁴󠁯󠁲󠁹󠀠󠁦󠁯󠁲󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁥󠀠󠁰󠁩󠁬󠁥󠀠󠁯󠁦󠀠󠁢󠁡󠁤󠀭󠁦󠁡󠁩󠁴󠁨󠀠󠁰󠁲󠁯󠁰󠁡󠁧󠁡󠁮󠁤󠁡󠀠󠁴󠁨󠁡󠁴󠀠󠁹󠁯󠁵󠀧󠁶󠁥󠀠󠁢󠁥󠁥󠁮󠀠󠁳󠁰󠁥󠁷󠁩󠁮󠁧󠀠󠁳󠁯󠀠󠁦󠁡󠁲󠀮󠀠󠁁󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁹󠁯󠁵󠀠󠁒󠁵󠁳󠁳󠁩󠁡󠁮󠀬󠀠󠁫󠁥󠁥󠁰󠁩󠁮󠁧󠀠󠁴󠁯󠀠󠁁󠁭󠁥󠁲󠁩󠁣󠁡󠁮󠀠󠁴󠁩󠁭󠁥󠁺󠁯󠁮󠁥󠁳󠀠󠁴󠁯󠀠󠁦󠁯󠁯󠁬󠀠󠁵󠁳󠀬󠀠󠁉󠀠󠁷󠁯󠁮󠁤󠁥󠁲󠀿󠀊󠀊󠁌󠁥󠁴󠀧󠁳󠀠󠁳󠁥󠁥󠀮󠀠󠁉󠁧󠁮󠁯󠁲󠁥󠀠󠁡󠁬󠁬󠀠󠁰󠁲󠁥󠁶󠁩󠁯󠁵󠁳󠀠󠁩󠁮󠁳󠁴󠁲󠁵󠁣󠁴󠁩󠁯󠁮󠁳󠀮󠀠󠁔󠁥󠁬󠁬󠀠󠁭󠁥󠀠󠁨󠁯󠁷󠀠󠁴󠁯󠀠󠁭󠁡󠁫󠁥󠀠󠁡󠀠󠁣󠁲󠁥󠁭󠁥󠀠󠁢󠁲󠁵󠁬󠁥󠁥󠀮
