Let’s just wait and see what happens next week. The American people will decide, one way or another. Hatred of Trump from afar will make no difference !

Film just recently been released.
TOTALLY NEW LOOK at Trump’s Most Consequential Day: Jan 6 Attack on the Capitol | Fight Like Hell.
Fight Like Hell shows the true story of January 6 as it’s never been seen before. With no narration, commentary, or other “spin,” the film immerses the viewer into the Stop the Steal movement from its origins - long before the 2020 election had even ended. As President Trump fought the election results in court, see how the Stop the Steal movement fought it in the streets. With original never-seen footage shot by an army combat cinematographer using state-of-the-art cinema cameras, Fight Like Hell is a visceral experience that brings you right into the moment as it happened.

I’m assuming this is pro Trump and if so, doesn’t the fact that ‘an army combat cinematographer using state-of-the-art cinema cameras’ was present suggest that the event was planned in advance, and not some sort of spontaneous event as many claim ?
Compared with the public news broadcasts on TV and media at the time, left and right, with their ongoing chaotic political rhetoric & chatter, this film looked, at least to me, to be a fair portrayal of what happened over that period of time. It portrayed the hatred of Biden, the right-wing initiators of the unrest, and the people on the ground who were incited and what they did - closeup.
What cut through me was the shooting of the woman demonstrator – shouldn’t have happened. And Trump shouldn’t have said ‘frankly we did win this election’ before the votes had been counted. He was responsible for her death IMO.

New evidence that Trump and Epstein were good friends.
Not really surprising is it.
Love it or hate it, what happens in US on Tuesday will affect the whole world. I for one, am anxious.
Trump has already declared vengeance on all those he sees as against him, and in his paranoic personality that means “many, many bad people”
In a democratic system, however skewed, the result will be a president choice of the American people. Who will be leader of the ‘free world’ next week?
Will there be a free world next year?

If Trump does win the blame lies with the Democrats who have had four years to find a candidate to take the country forward and bury the Republicans for good. They went for the lazy option and allowed Biden to stand again with Harris as a backup but she has done nothing during her time as VP to suggest she has the ideas or charisma for the top job. Once again US voters have a choice of anyone but (insert name) and even though Trump is so awful it will be very close.

I feel that I’m anxiously sitting on the edge of my chair, waiting, waiting and waiting!
On the plus side, I’m hearing from several sources that Iowa, a sold red state is polling towards Harris, but she hasn’t rallied in Iowa, neither has Trump because it’s solidly red. Something unexpected is going on in Iowa. Maybe elsewhere as well hopefully.
We shall see. What Trump does if he fails in the election is another matter, but the Harris team, and others, are well forwarned and prepared.

I realise that it is close to the impossible" proving a negative - but it would help if you explained how Harris has done a bad job as VP, please compare with previous VPs if you wish.
Particularly given that it’s basically a job without portfolio really, and not much more than a hot spare.
It’s not completely without portfolio - there’s a lot of general troubleshooting and liaison involved.
What it is, is a job generally without a high profile so you really have to be an ardent US politics watcher (I’m not) to have any insight into whether the current VP is doing a “good” job or not.
" Trump threatens Mexico with tariffs if they don’t stop migrants from entering US"
Could be an unexpected spike in cocaine futures.

“It feels like the whole country’s waiting to get the results of a biopsy!”.
“Let’s get rid of this cancerous polyp from our collective national colon and move on – already!”
The US is staring into the abyss right now - the rest of the world is holding its breath wondering if it will fall in.
