The current Rwing narrative that Trump has the election locked-up is false. The Foxy one has been pushing this narrative for over a week now.

Polling aggregate Real Clear Politics has VP Harris winning - but barely. Allan Lichtman whose "Keys to the White House" shows that VP Harris will win. Michael Moore predicted a 270 v 268 win for VP Harris.

ALL of the above are showing a VERY NARROW win for VP Harris.

Trump's mood and increasingly false rhetoric has become increasingly dark. Trump pundits are preemptively blaming different minority groups for a Harris win, because it's easier than reckoning with the kind of gleeful hatred that has absolutely consumed 48% of white folks in this country.

Moderates don’t owe a thing to the GOP. Moderates don't owe anything to a party that is out of touch and hell-bent on taking the U.S. backward. And by all means, Moderates owe no loyalty to a POTUS candidate who is morally and ethically bankrupt. Place country over party if one truly cares about our American democratic republic, as deeply held conservative Liz Cheney has done

More than ever, it is imperative the decent folks vote blue, no matter who. The survival of America depends on decent folks stepping-up in 2024.

I’ve been trying to understand the Trump phenomena, and why it is so appealing. I’ve concluded that that Trump’s base are made-up of seriously broken and damaged human beings who cannot stand to see others joyful and happy in life. Trump’s base have chosen as their savior a man who is equally broken and as damaged as they are.

Together, Trump and his followers seek to break, smash, and destroy everything happy and joyful folks hold dear.

When I view Trump and his followers through the broken and damaged human beings lens, hell-bent on destroying happy and joyful society, the Trump movement makes sense to me.

I’m not certain that Trump and his followers can be fixed to be made healthy happy Members of society.

But happy and joyful society should try. We owe it to our own happiness and peace of mind.
