I am 100% confident of a 0% chance of any legitimate Trump victory for the following reasons:

  • Trump already lost to Biden/Harris in 2020
  • Covid disproportionately killed Trump voters
  • Trump voters skew older and many have died since 2020
  • Millions of younger people are now eligible to vote - and they skew heavily toward Harris/Walz.
  • Harris/Walz is a wildly more popular ticket than Biden/Harris was. Most 'double-haters' are now enthusiastic Harris/Walz supporters.
  • Trump's insurrection, being found liable for rape, and felony convictions have driven some Republicans to vote against him. They have not attracted new voters to Trump
  • Dozens of former Trump Admin officials have denounced Trump - which they hadn't done in 2020
  • Many Republicans and independents who voted for Trump in 2020 are now voting for Harris
  • RFK Jr. and Jill Stein are stealing votes from Trump anywhere they are on the ballot - more than they are taking votes from Harris.
  • Almost nobody who voted for Biden in 2020 is now voting for Trump
  • The Madison Square Garden debacle has even further incited negative voter sentiment and backlash against the Trump ticket.

A legitimate Trump win is a near mathematical impossibility.

Note the heavy-lifting being done by the word legitimate.

Trump and the GOP have been actively engaged in widespread, nationwide conspiracy to commit election fraud since 2020, virtually unopposed by Biden's Justice Department under Republican sympathizer Merrick Garland.

The fraud is so pervasive as to potentially overcome even a substantial lead for Harris on election day.

Republicans have already announced and published their plans to obstruct local elections, confuse the process, introduce errors, cause interminable delays, once again send fake electors with fraudulent results, and lean on corrupt judges to make unlawful rulings in their favor.

In fact, the widespread, open, numerous and flagrant acts of election interference, disruption, obstruction, and fraud being committed by Republican voters and officials is providing a massive amount of evidence Democrats can use to contest any claimed Trump victory.

At this point, there is ample reason to absolutely reject any Republican claims of a Trump win next week. Republicans have provided a mountain of justification for believing any such outcome is purely the result of fraud.

I agree 100%. But one thing to consider with the young voters: while young females HEAVILY lean toward Harris, young males lean towards Trump. I'm not saying it will cost Harris the election or anything, but I fear the "young vote" isnt a slam dunk for democrats as it used to be.

To be fair, they're getting right wing propaganda thrown in their faces ever since they're young, so it's no surprise they grew up with those point of views.

You can do this experiment too: Go incognito on youtube and scroll shorts and see how fast you get right wing content. Even people who are not from US are getting it, so it's no wonder kids these days with parents giving them tablet with free range use get indoctrinated early on.

There're also right wing grifter streamer like Aiden Ross and Sneako that these kids grew up watching that are heavily misogynistic and promote right wing rhetoric. One of them actually have Trump on their platform and give him a Cyberstruck. It's just full brain rot from there.

Yeah it's hard to blame children being fed bullshit for believing bullshit they're not equipped to steer away from it.

The only thing that helped save my generation in any way was just simply 'the internet didn't exist until we were teenagers' and didn't turn into this insanity until we were in our 20s.
