Trump

Tear gassing and firing rubber bullets at peaceful protesters to have a photo opportunity. This bloke is just new levels of cuntery.
 
I very much doubt it unless he cheats on a monumental scale.

He'll have a base who will vote him for him regardless of what he does but he's absolutely lost support since 2016 and Biden does not split opinion like Hillary did. His numbers are shocking. He also can't hold his Nürnberg rallies any time soon so he just rants away like a deranged loon on Twitter. And remember he didn't even win the popular vote in 2016 when some might have given him the benefit of the doubt but absolutely won't now.
 
I'll be shocked if he isn't reelected, personally.
 
If a week is a long time in politics, then 5 months is an absolute eternity. Literally anything could happen, and the current law and order situation could yet prove a winner for him (as could an improved coronavirus landscape).

Biden would have beaten him 4 years ago - he was not the polarising figure that HRC was, plus he would have been more popular in the rust states.

But Biden is now 4 years older and much more gaffe prone. And trump is in a better position to control the narrative.

Biden 'should' win, but it is absolutely not a foregone conclusion.
 
Polls suggest that Trump is further behind in the popular vote than he was against Clinton, but still ahead in the swing States he needs. Every chance he loses the popular vote by more than last time and still gets in. The MAGA brigade aren't the focus at the moment with the rioting which is going on but you can be damn sure what side they are on, it'll help to cement his vote. He doesn't need to win the big cities, just keep the smaller towns, who seem happy to go for his brand of polorising rhetoric. He won Pennsylvania last time whilst losing in both of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

Biden isn't popular, just not as unpopular as Clinton. He's looked physically old and weak during the Coronavirus months. America isn't ready for a Mayor Pete or a perceived socialist like Bernie, but I do feel the Dems have missed a trick by not going with a more energising candidate. The key to the election isn't Trump losing support its Biden getting the stay at home Dems of 2016 out in the right areas in the year of a pandemic. If I was betting on a result now it would be a second term.
 
I think he'll win a second term,and I really think he'll change the rules to make it something along the lines of North Korea,next glorious leader after him will be female and called ivanka.
If he loses,he won't go quietly,if at all,he'll stay in the white house and use all the laws he can to stay there,it'll be the vote was rigged/illegal/unfair either way America is screwed
 
I hope he loses for several important reasons, but also to see his childish butt hurt response to it.
 
I think he will win as well. Its like Brexit, people have made their minds up and no amount of evidence will sway people to change their minds.
 
You don't need people to change their minds, just some of those who voted for him in 2016 to not vote for anyone.

I know this is Bizarro World now where up is down and logic is an alien concept, but he is not favourite to win by any measure.
 
You can't read much into the national polls unless they reflect the electoral college. The Dakotas have 1.5% of the population of Californian yet 11% of the electoral college votes. Effectively making a Republican vote there ten times more important than a Democrat one in Cal.
 
Guy sets up a separate account purely to tweet verbatim what Trump has tweeted. And gets suspended for 12 hours.

"President Trump said "it was a false report" that he was taken to the White House's underground bunker Friday night. He insists it was "more for an inspection."

He added that he's gone down to bunker total of "two and a half" times to "inspect."

How do you visit something 2 and a half times? Is he counting a time he went to inspect and just before he got there forgot what he was doing so turned back

The polls are looking very poor indeed for Trump in the marginal states- not as much of a bloodbath as the overall polls, but bad for him, and only getting worse.

He's not popular, and he hasn't drawn a wide enough movement to carry him to power again- he's not going to be facing off against a historically unpopular candidate this time, for starters.

Honestly, I'd be more worried in him meddling with the process than him beating Biden legitimately.
