Harris will be the nominee as it keeps the Biden warchest, avoids the interparty split, Michele doesnt want it, and with Gretchen it amplifies the abortion issue and helps hold onto Michigan.
Trump will jjettison his plan to nominate Vance, Burgaw or Carson and pick a woman to blunt the expected impact of a unified, non-Biden ticket. He is a pragmatist and will pick Haley if he can stomach it or Stefanik if he cant. Either brings party unity. He wont know who Harris will pick, but he has good instincts and his MAGA base isnt going anywhere.
Not sure who wins….depends on if they are able to expose Harris’ record and get it off the racial/gender topic and what happens with the Trump sentencing in September.
Think it will come down to Pennsylvania, since I think Whitmer saves Michigan and helps in Wisconsin and not anywhere else.

“Basically, however, Grayzone is a one-stop propaganda shop, devoted largely to pushing a pro-Assad line on Syria, a pro-regime line on Venezuela, a pro-Putin line on Russia, and a pro-Hamas line on Israel and Palestine.”

Reed, who was credited as a managing editor as of 2023, made occasional contributions to Iranian state-run Press TV in 2020 and 2021.”
I guess the new Finnish President is much smarter than the Hungarian PM
“The European Union’s most Russia-friendly leader, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said on Tuesday that he’d asked Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, to engage in talks with Russia and seek a quick cease-fire. The Finnish president disagreed.
“It’s out of the question to push for a cease-fire at the moment, there needs to be a genuine peace negotiation,” Stubb said. “The only thing that Russia understands is power. And therefore the more we can help Ukraine now, the faster we’ll get the war to end.”
“Rep. Don Beyer (D., Va.) invoked the crucifixion of Jesus during introductory remarks at a McLean, Va., fundraiser, one of the president’s first appearances since a disastrous debate performance last week. “He died to demonstrate the universality of human suffering—that suffering was not the end,” Beyer said of Jesus. “We each endure tragedies in our lives and hardships and suffering.”
“But few had to endure more than this man,” Beyer said of Biden, according to a White House press pool recording of the event. “Losing his wife, losing his daughter, and losing his son. The vicissitudes of American politics.”
“But all through he has been a good, good man. He’s resilient, optimistic, indefatigable, and above all courageous,” Beyer continued.”

Given the surge for Trump and slippage of Biden in the national polling, as well as the most recent numbers for Trump in GA and AZ, I have decided to remove these two states from the Battleground States grid. The average in GA is +7.7 for Trump and +7.3 in Arizona. If things change, they will be put back into the grid.
Trump has led all 34 polls in GA, going back to October 2023, and 39 out of 40 polls of AZ going back to last year. And its now after this record and these current averages that Biden imploded at the debate, leaving no real means, at least in the short term, for these states to be competitive in any meaningful way.
So right now the true battlegrounds are:
NV, PA, MI, WI, NE2, ME, MN, NH, NM, VA, NJ, and CO.
We are at Willie Nelson’s 4th of July Concert in Camden, NJ. Bob Dylan and several acts will be performing. I saw a Kennedy for President shirt on a man with a grey ponytail. I did not see Jason yet.
uk exit polls will be released in 40 mins. It will be interesting to see how close to the final results they will be. Lots of “shy” voters there
ironically, if France had had the first past the post elections the right leaning party would have swept to power. But they do a second round and a lot of candidates who would finish third are bowing out so the right doesn’t win, which may allow the far left socialist/communist block to be the biggest
UK results are in and sadly, the leftist Labour Party has won, though as usual, by a bit less than polls suggested
Labour was projected to win 431 seats in polls, but won 410 after voting…still enough for a massive majority.
the rest: 131 for the Conservatives, 61 for the Liberal Democrats, 13 for Reform U.K., 10 for the Scottish National Party and 2 for the Green Party
this means for the next half decade or so the UK will ruled by the far left…(far far left in American terms). Which means more unfettered immigration (how do you think they won), more money thrown at socialized medicine, bigger givt programs
fortunately the rest of Europe is moving towards rational thought
It takes a long time to swing back. Look at the past 50 years. Conservatives win in 79 hold power to 97. Labour wins and holds power until 2010. Conservatives win and hold power till 24…theoretically Labour should hold power until the late 2030’s, and with immigration increasing, young people not wanting to work and being woke…it could be this one lasts a long time until the Uk is completely transformed from what it was, into what the rest of Europe will be in 50 years….3rd world cesspools.

Prediction for the November election:
Harris/Whitmer
Trump/Haley or Stefanik
Harris will be the nominee as it keeps the Biden warchest, avoids the interparty split, Michele doesnt want it, and with Gretchen it amplifies the abortion issue and helps hold onto Michigan.
Trump will jjettison his plan to nominate Vance, Burgaw or Carson and pick a woman to blunt the expected impact of a unified, non-Biden ticket.
