Indeed. The swing state polls are the ones that are going to be interesting given that its only about 7 or 8 states that will decide the entire election.
2024 U.S. Elections

I read that Trump won independents in NH by 18 points in 2016, now he lost them by 22 points.
This is bad news for republicans in the general, if this is in any way representative for rest of the electorate.

If Nikki drops out before the next primary in late February, the nominee will have been decided by roughly 400,000 votes cast in total.
What a dogshit election system. Imagine being a voter in one of the 48 other states. Probably wouldn’t have made a difference this year, but for other years it really is dumb.

Now that I did not see coming.
Have you seen Biden recently?
Russia
I'm merely a casual poster juggling a family and a job, not one of those political operatives gracing the interwebs with their so-called pearls of wisdom.
Anyway, as usual, I'm on the money with these predictions. Trump will clinch it, tragically so, since the man is practically a walking billboard of empty chatter.
Oh dear.Russia
That Trump was going to clinch the nomination?
It was the ‘obliteration’ prediction with which we disagreed.
I'm talking about the general election. Trump will win and usher in what's sure to be a serene and uneventful four years of constitutional crises.
Trump ain’t gonna win. But that’s a strong generational talent bet though.I don't think it will happen but if Trump wins, I bet Thomas and Alito would retire, allowing Trump to appoint 2 super young Christian conservatives to lock in the right-wing agenda for decades to come. We are talking 30-40 years of control.
Very scary shit.
Yikes, I hadnt even made that leap yet but yes that is very real threat. John Stewart coming back to the Daily Show (assuming that is real) is probably no surprise. Unfortunately people like him will likely be of big importance to ensure apathy doesn't set in with certain folks in the center and even left.
Even if Biden wins, doubt he will get any judges without the senate anyway.
Republicans will have no problems stalling nominations for years, they have done it before and will do so again, if given the opportunity.

The only SCOTUS example is Merrick Garland in 2016 right? That was insane at the same, but it would still be moving the goalposts significantly if they tried to do it in Biden's first couple of years of a potential second term. Not saying they won't, but it would be a new level of criminality.
"I'm always right about these things" claims local man who repeatedly claimed Trump was going to win in 2020.

Biden to Receive Endorsement from United Automobile Workers Union
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/24/us/politics/biden-uaw-union-speech-endorsement.html
Not particularly MAGA, but back in 2011 my Uncle was pro-Assad when the Syrian protests broke out. He was even dancing to the sight of tanks invading small towns. We were very close back then and I could never look at him the same way after. Having nutjobs in the family is extremely tiresome.
POTUS speech in front of UAW members today. The union gave him their endorsement as well.
It's a much needed change of scenery compared after the (needless) media coverage given to Trump's shite in recent weeks.

If the Dems can get the Senate back then they can do what they want. Though we would need another pandemic to get Thomas and Alito out of there.
Seeing some of Trump's gaffes recently.
It's not looking good

I'm waiting for them to air their message inside a Trump rally, especially after he explicitly said this.

Trump isn’t president so it would be pointless to demand a ceasefire at his rallies. Just a waste of time.
A waste of time to push policy change at the frontrunner and clear owner of the entire GOP "platform"? I mean most sane people know the only policy GOP actually care about is owning libs. But, ideally anyone advocating any type of international stance would want to be making their case to the leaders of both parties.
And if Trump is a "lost cause" which he is, then there goes the "they are both the same" arguments for parties.
You cannot go to any social media post these days and not see comments about "speak up for Palestine etc." Even celebs, sports figures that have nothing to do with policy.
Unionised workers protesting against the sitting President(Who is bypassing congress to fund a genocide)at a Union endorsed meeting is a better use of time.
Sadly imo it’s probably just as useless as protesting at a Trump rally. The protesting workers got booted out and their calls for a ceasefire were met with louder chants of UWA UWA. The Union policy btw is for a ceasefire.
We live in a very stupid world.
This is why it is always so crazy they bend over backwards to suck up to him. Even into potential criminality. He is NEVER loyal to these people. They get used and discarded like toilet paper whenever he feels like it. No matter what they previously did for him. Any perceived slight he will throw people he hired under the bus.
Biden might have to make due without Michigan, the war in Gaza might have sunk him there.
Not on ads maybe but I'm getting emails from them every day asking for money.
Joe Biden said:
Gimme money or you'll get Trump'd. Classic!!
It d be one thing if the people he goes after would not cave but every time he does, they fold and jump back on the Trump train to kiss his feet. Can't wait for all the stories to come out when Donnie is 6 feet under - because it seems like that might be the only time people will finally get some balls.

National polls keeps getting worse and worse for Biden, and yet, actual election results shows Trump is bleeding independent voters.
Maybe he dont even need them then.
Fortunately the election isn't for 10 more months and national polls will change over time, especially with Trump convictions hanging in the balance (a signficaint amount of Republicans hav said they will ditch Trump if he's convicted).
Is this something that is gonna happen soon or is it like PL charges against City?
I believe 3 of the trials are taking place in the summer. There are no guarantees as to how long they take.
As said before, convictions wont save demcocrats.
Republicans saying they wont vote for Trump if convicted is just something they say, if they rationalize voting for him up until this point, then they just will push the needle further.
I have no faith in this one being true.
