I haven't had COVID. Have you? Still think the vax is "safe and effective"?
I have been vaxxed with boosters. No side effects. Is that "safe" enough for you? "Effective"? I have had Covid twice without being ill, which is what the vax is intended to achieve. I also don't live in a basement, as you do.
If Harris can tap into Obama voters she will win. There aren't enough angry white males and Karen's for Trump to beat Obama's voting base. Especially if the Obamas come out and campaign for her.
Really that is the only way Harris wins.
Harris gives off 'Hillary vibes' to me. Meaning old white democrats will not vote for a strong female because they are intimidated. They will just stay at home like they did in 2016.
Both Obama's need to stump for Harris for this to work.
At this point I don't care. I'll vote against Trump, but with our checks and balances he can only do so much harm.

Please share these check and balances you feel will guardrail Trump.
Hilarious that you all live in your bubble and have no idea how popular Harris will be/is with 35 and under people, especially women of all races. So many of the people hate Trump but thought Biden was too old will be energized with a young, smart, vibrant candidate. Nikki Haley abandoned her "never Trump" supporters by doing the one thing she said she would never do; endorse him. Those people have a new candidate and another woman of color to support, and trust me, they will. You are delusional if you believe Trump will beat Harris, no matter what your bubble buddies tell you.
I can’t be the only one who finds comedy in the fact that this person is accusing OP of “living in a bubble” while simultaneously touting the prospects of success for the least popular VP in modern American history.

Please keep Mike Pence out of this discussion. He has 24/7 security because his life is still in danger for simply doing his constitutional duty and adding up the vote counts.
Trump is very unpopular - the polls show it. Biden was just worse (some fair some, I think, unfair). I welcome the GOP to think it’s gonna be a cakewalk, but the frantic tweeting of the same talking points from their mouthpieces today makes it clear they recognize the new risk.
Totally agree with this; the problem is the delusional idiots believing Trump's lying about the 2020 election. And now Trump is running around saying that any election he loses is 'rigged' and these so-called patriots who support him are happy to undermine democracy at every turn as long as this malignant sociopath 'owns the libs'. It's a good thing when progressive and conservative elements can balance out the baser instincts of each side, but it's PRINCIPLED conservatism we need, not the christofascist personality cult that is the M*GA nightmare. The sooner effing tRump is relegated to the ash heap of history the better of we'll all be.
I'm sure that this will still come down to tens of thousands of votes in a couple of swing states, so neither side should be spiking the ball.
However, if there is anything that the American people made clear in poll after poll, we did NOT want a rematch of Biden v. Trump, and BOTH candidates were seen as too old.
So, we have one party that did something about it. That party showed the courage to push out a sitting President to clear the way for a handoff to a younger candidate. Making it clear to the President that he's not the guy, this late in the campaign season, shows real courage.
The other party is running the same old guy, who is clearly showing substantial mental decline, who delivers the same old, tired rants, who would be the oldest man ever to be sworn in, and has a long list of negatives (you all know the list) that make a lot of people disgusted with him. Yet that party lacked the courage to go a new direction.
Again, the race will be close. But Republicans who are honest with themselves just went, "Oh, crap."
