    Overall, a majority of white women support Trump over Harris. People need to grapple with the fact that Trump is quite popular across a surprising number of demographics – for example, he’s more popular with Hispanic voters than any other republican president. He’s popular enough that he continues to close the national polling gap (Harris leads by less than 1% now in Silver’s poll aggregator; Biden won by over 4% and he still narrowly won the electoral college by only ~80,000 votes), and Nate Silver’s projections currently have Trump with a roughly 10% (9.9%) higher chance of winning the electoral college.

    And Trump continues to gain as Harris slips, which has been happening slowly but steadily for over a month.

    Does it concern anyone else that Republican politicians and voters seem to have dramatic, radical, concrete, and material plans for after they win and after they lose? And it seems like democrats have zero plans if they lose other than to say “it’s not possible, I clearly called him a fascist on social media many times”? No one I’ve spoken with that’s a dem or any flavor of left has any concrete plans for if Trump wins. And he’s the favorite to win right now. Does that seem bad to anyone else or…? No? OK cool.
