Yet another late poll of the Sunshine State, this one released as early voting is underway in many counties, suggests it’s too late for Kamala Harris to make a play for Florida’s electoral votes.
The Emerson College survey finds Donald Trump up 52% to 44%, with 3% undecided and 1% voting for someone else.
When undecided voters are compelled to pick one, the numbers change but the story doesn’t; Trump’s lead there is 54% to 46%.
The former President is more than holding his own across the gender gap that has been a primary narrative in many polls of this race, explaining his overall lead.
“Female voters in Florida break for Trump, 49% to 47%, making Florida the second competitive state, after Arizona, to find Trump with an edge among women,” said Spencer Kimball, Executive Director of Emerson College Polling.
Democrats have messaged heavily around reproductive rights and have charged Trump with picking Supreme Court Justices who ended Roe v. Wade and laid the groundwork for laws like Florida’s Heartbeat Protection Act, but seemingly to no avail against Teflon Don.
The former President’s outreach to Latino communities, such as during this week’s roundtable event in Doral, also works in his favor, as he maintains functional parity with voters Republicans have faced challenges with in past cycles.
“Other key groups in Florida such as Hispanic voters, who — like women, broke for Biden in 2020, are split: 48% support Harris and 47% Trump.”
The poll of 860 likely voters, conducted Oct. 18 through Oct. 20, assumes a strong Republican advantage, with 39% of respondents being Republicans, 31% Democrats, and 30% unaligned with the major parties. It is in line with the average poll of the Trump-Harris contest, which shows Trump up also by 8 points.

Kammy getting exposed for the phony that she is. No wonder she was the first to drop out of the Demo primary four years ago. The coup by Pelosi and the Demo leadership is failing right before our eyes. The last four years have been a complete failure. The border, the economy, world affairs and on. People simply want change. Trump might actually win this thing.

Shame on you indeed for casting a vote for this wanna be fascist dictator.

What is your source for this ridiculous assertion?
“The idea that supporters of gun control are doing something akin to what Hitler’s Germany did to strip citizens of guns in the run-up to the Second World War is historically inaccurate and offensive, especially to Holocaust survivors and their families.”

They just keep repeating the same stupid things regardless of whether they make any sense or not which I’d say that was more akin to 30’s Germany propaganda than some stupid crap about guns. The funny (not really) thing is that if he wins, we all lose regardless if you’re a trump fanboi or not.

John Kelly, a retired Marine general, and the longest serving chief of staff in the Trump administration, and head of Homeland Security uder Trunp:
“He said that, in his opinion, Mr. Trump met the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator if allowed, and had no understanding of the Constitution or the concept of rule of law.”
He discussed and confirmed previous reports that Mr. Trump had made admiring statements about Hitler, had expressed contempt for disabled veterans and had characterized those who died on the battlefield for the United States as “losers” and “suckers” — comments first reported in 2020 by The Atlantic.

From the NYT interview:
Kelly said that based on his experience, Trump met the definition of a “fascist.”
In response to a question about whether he thought Mr. Trump was a fascist, Mr. Kelly first read aloud a definition of fascism that he had found online.
“Well, looking at the definition of fascism: It’s a far-right authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy,” he said.
Mr. Trump’s recent comments about using the military against what he called the “enemy within” were so dangerous, he said, that he felt he had to speak out.
“And I think this issue of using the military on — to go after — American citizens is one of those things I think is a very, very bad thing — even to say it for political purposes to get elected — I think it’s a very, very bad thing, let alone actually doing it,” Mr. Kelly said.
Mr. Kelly said that Mr. Trump was repeatedly told dating back to his first year in office why he should not use the U.S. military against Americans and the limits on his authority to do so. Mr. Trump nevertheless continued while in office to push the issue and claim that he did have the authority to take such actions, Mr. Kelly said.

Deep South state and local governments from 1890s until the 1960s were fascist. Not that you would admit it since George Wallace remains an icon for you.

George Wallace became a national figure and played important roles in two Presidential campaigns, drawing a large number of votes from throughout the country.
The reason you claim to like Farrakhan is he was a separatist or Black nationalist, which is the flip side of white nationalism or white supremacy.

Ask any African American vet of WWII who lived in the South before the 1960s — or any intellectually honest white person — and they’ll tell you the white racists in the South were little different from the Nazis in Germany or the fascists in Italy.
In fact, when the Nazis began to compile their race laws in the late 1930s, they looked to Jim Crow laws in the South as a major source of their own prohibitions and discrimination against Jews.
Go ahead, prove me wrong.

Trump told the Taliban the US would be out of Afghanistan in the spring. That was the basis for the deal Trump cut with the Taliban, completely ignoring the elected government. ISIS, a Sunni enemy of the Taliban, were responsible for the act of terror as the US withdrew.
Like Benghazi, you want to make something of the losses during withdrawal while ignoring the role the GOP played in creating the situation in Afghanistan and Iraq. Both of these debacles were created by W who you supported.

Democratic lunacy run amok. Do any of them even remember normalcy, reason or common sense? Does it have to be crazy off the Richter scale to even register with them? Kamala was either in on Biden cover up or too dumb to run anything.
