The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Just in case you don't want Kamala Harris as your President please remember.....

In 2016 the polls showed Trump getting his butt kicked and it was easily proven that many pollsters were either stupidly, or purposely manipulating who they sampled.

Lower poll numbers are aimed to do two things:

1.)Hurt fundraising.

2.)Suppress voter turnout in that - hey my guy is losing why bother.

So these numbers go up and down and if you look at LIKELY VOTER polls, Trump is either up or down by a little --- basically margin of error up, margin of error down and this is after 2 WEEKS of a fresh candidate who was given the nomination and is being given an accountability-free honeymoon by the paternalistic racists on the Left.

She'll get the normal bump after convention. And then? What, she's ahead by 5 points?

Dukakis was ahead by 17 points. And then a focused effort was made to merely point out his record and positions.

Seriously, Wally and the Beaver could make a case on Harris just pointing out her record and positions and ditto Walz.

It's a question of - do you want Trump? Do you *not* want Kamala Harris as your President and are you willing to come out and vote?

I was Biden 2020 and once the Democracy Hating Dictator Democrats took away his nomination I was content to stay home.

Depending on what state I pick I'll be doing absentee ballot, or voting post-donut in the morning on Election Day.
