Trump is closing the gap in the polls the gap is now 7 which has reduced from 12. The game is on.
Interesting clip listened to earlier Thor.
Since 2016, 8 Million wealthier, older people in the USA (most likely to have voted Republican) have since died.
In 2016, the majority of undecided voters, were elderly ex-Democrats. Many didn't subsequently bother to vote; or switched to vote for Trump on his policy of creating jobs.
Four years later and get this - the majority of undecided voters have a completely different demographic - "more likely to be younger, female and of colour."
Add into the mix that from now until November, there is every likelihood of a further lockdown; and a subsequent hit upon the U.S. economy and more unemployment. This could sway a lot of swing voters away from Trump.
I'm not sure of the validity of this information - it was after all from the mouth of Nick Griffin (who is Pro-Trump).
See faldO.......for balance, I do listen to many anti-Left Wing outlets of news and information.

You could well be right in what you say. I saw some graph yesterday on key battlegrounds trump won last time and he is behind in all but two of them. I suspect trump is hoping to close the gap down more on the head to head stuff. I could also see the election being postponed like the London mayor election if lockdown happens or further controls placed on people.
Just remember how the Rabid Righties all laughed at corbyns free wi-fi !
Things are getting so stretched its going to pop soon enough .
Roll on Brexit

I did laugh reading this morning that Trumpy griped that Biden "must be" on drugs because he couldn't finish a sentence earlier in the Primaries. Pots and black kettles come to mind, when I think of 45's ever-rambling oration.

When a family cat who died 12 years ago gets a ballot paper then you know something's wrong.

I'll say one thing about Biden , for a bloke who's got dementia he's seemingly dong well in the polls. I can't wait for the head to head debates later this month, it should make for interesting viewing. I wonder if Biden will read all his answers of a teleprompter.
I've had prostate exams that were more enjoyable than that debate.

try the Tory Minister on Daily Politics_ He wouldn't condemn Trump ( despite the fact he foreign ). Said we should keep out of USA politics and basically suck up to the Yanks. And oh yes, he was a Boris supporter. God help us.
You couldnβt remember his name? He was right, we should keep out of USA politics. Doubt he said in any form that we should suck up to America. Fake news you spout!

The thing is, he hasnβt been a failure at all. U.S stock market is booming. The U.S is creating a huge amounts of jobs. Exceeding growth expectations vs Europe that is once again teetering on recession. Not only that he has managed to get a bid in the bond market so interest rates are not even going up. I would imagine if you asked the poorer people in this country would they prefer more money in their pockets or a prime minister that doesnβt tweet crap the answer would be a almost every time.
So is that what Trump has done then - put money in poor peoples pockets? That's a new one on me.
How would we ever know?

There's no point having another debate unless the moderator can turn off their microphones
