When the alternative is a demented old con man, if they can walk and chew gum at the same time they should be leading by 40 points in the polls.
In a sane country.

I think you set the bar far too high for the Harris campaign. Maybe you should have stopped at walk. Walking is an improvement over the elected nominee.

Got to say, with it as an ACTUAL trained firearms user i'm not terribly excited about his safe handling of the firearm either.

You're giving them too much credit. They some things wrong. Everyone does.

Sure, and in the grand scheme of things this is pretty minor and nobody is changing their vote over it. As an avid shotgunner myself it's a little painful to watch but we all have one of those days. 

But it is funny, and it's pretty obvious he's not very familiar with that shotgun which makes his whole claim about only he and his fellow military are trained to use weapons ring a little hollow

If Harris’ campaign is doing everything wrong, why isn’t Donald Trump way ahead of her in the polls?

LOL after all the attacks and smears and jan 6 propaanda, the real question is given that it's donald trump shes up against if she's doing ANYTHING right why isn't SHE way ahead in the polls?

She had a 'Perfect storm' - a big convention where every single dem heavyweight including a giant iud showed up to boost the hell out of her, a media who basically put every available staff member on the job of making her look good, they gave her a free pass for not doing interviews, she was all 'brat' and all 'good feels and sunny days'.  They took her boss around back and 'old yeller'd' him and nodded their heads when she simultaneously claimed she was a responsible part of that gov't and can't think of anything she'd do different AND was the fresh new face who'll do everything different as the candidate of change. 

I explained this at the very start of the campaign. The longer the campaign goes on the lower her numbers will go especially in the swing states. And i explained in detail why. 

Thats why i said she needed to start the campaign with about a 3 -4 point lead in the swings and about a 6 overall.  That's what she needed to have coming out of the convention, then if she slipped a bit against trump it was no big deal, she could "glide" to the finish line without taking serious risks. 

We guess what. She didn't get that, and now the aggregate polling shows she's underwater in the swing states and has negative momentum just as i predicted. If this trend we're seeing continues she'll be at a serious disadvantage come the election and it will basically boil down to whether or not she can get her voters out at much higher numbers than trump.  which is going to be tough, trump's people are pretty motivated, whereas shes' barely known. .

Sure, whenever he does something wrong he's MY idol......   LOL  (night be a Canadian inside joke,...) 

And absolutely. While trump is currently ahead of Kamala, the difference is razor thin and for the most part still within the margin of error. There's enough of a trend to say that he's ahead but it could turn on a dime and definitely voter turnout is going to be an issue. I think it's going to boil down to who gets their vote out.

Obviously if they're neck and neck but trump only gets 60% of his vote out well Kamala gets 70% of her vote out, she wins.

But the gap between them is growing, and I expect that to accelerate over the next few weeks. And the fact is that she's just not as well known or as popular and it's very very hard to get your vote motivated and excited and out the door in those circumstances. 

There's an old phrase I used to use when harper was around in Canada, you can have a charismatic man or a charismatic plan but you need at least one (sorry for the sexism, i couldn't think of anything that rhymed with 'person' at the time)

Kamala hasn't been that charismatic. And she's not well known. 
And she hasn't presented any plan at all.  In fact she's said she would do everything the same as biden did, woudln't change anything. That's not going to excite anybody

Trump on the other hand is known by every single person in the planet, for better or worse. And he's presented at least a few more policy ideas that are going to be popular (although he really doesn't have much of a plan either). 

So while he doesn't have a charismatic plan he certainly is a charismatic man. Plus he got shot once and there were two attempts on his life and he'll stir up some emotion with that.

 

Kamala can absolutely still win, but the odds are stacked against her and they're getting worse. Which means she's going to start to get desperate and usually that doesn't end well

The problem is after the Biden/Harris administration the hatred for Trump has been tempered and the question is if the hate for Trump strong enough to motivate people to the polls because Kamala isn't exciting anyone.

Hey hey Tim Walz is the closest thing to a man the Democrats have and that was the reason to put him on the ticket because he is midwestern man who hunts and was a football coach.

Problem is he holds the gun like a girl and was a volunteer assistant football coach along with like 27 others.

It will motivate some but historically that's not the kind of thing that gets people out to the polls. While it is a common belief that people vote governments out rather than voting governments in, all of the research shows that if people don't have someone to vote for that they believe in just because they hate the person that's in currently or hates the opposition doesn't mean they're going to go out and vote. If Kamala doesn't excite them then they probably won't get out and vote strictly for hatred of trump.

The more radical and invested voters will get out and vote regardless but they were going to vote against trump already. They're baked in. But a lot of people don't care that much about politics and while they may not like trump if they don't like Kamala enough to get out and bother then they probably will just stay home.

But I think it's going to be a little bit of a war of getting the vote out
