Well, since it's a numbers game, how about the 700 intelligence folks who signed a letter warning of Trump's danger.
Maybe you like it better that he wants German type generals.
Do you think he even knows they were complicit in exterminating 6 million Jews, or that they tried to assassinate him?
I doubt it. He's probably happy Fox and Friends would come to his defense of it.

Kelly's son fought and died for the constitution he took an oath to protect and defend. Not for some goofy loyalty oath to a convicted felon.
I admire that. Sorry if that bothers you, or his dad's commitment to the same.

I see the Democrats are back to trying to get Trump assassinated. Pathetic.

A 3rd? Link?

Engaging in this is a waste of time, considering the the size of the Anti-Trump movement and their stated goal.....keeping him from being re-elected using ANY MEANS necessary.

It's well known that wildly embellished claims about the guy is a top symptom of late stage TDS. Just waiting for Ricin to end up in his Big Mac.

Let's say hypothetically that he did say that. What do you think he meant by it? Do you think he meant he wishes that he had those generals so he could round everyone up that disagreed with him and exterminate them? What he said was stupid, but that's nothing new in today's politics, both he and the other side say something stupid on a daily basis. However, to then make the jump that Kamala did yesterday is at best dishonest and divisive.

And im sorry but what Kelly's son did has zero bearing on this discussion.

Trump -175
Harris +150

Polymarket has Trump with a 64.1% chance to win as of this morning. You can see current odds and the trend here: https://polymarket.com/elections

Calm before the storm? Feels like something crazy is going to happen in the next dozen days. No idea what or which side it will effect, but it just doesn't feel like we're going to skate into Election Day without some wild twists and turns. On the betting side, Kamala's odds are getting just a touch shorter.

Trump -160
Harris +140

Polymarket has Trump with a 62.3% chance to win as of this morning. You can see current odds and the trend here: https://polymarket.com/elections

Something just occurred to me, and it is undeniably 1000% true!!

If I bet on Trump to win the election, he will NOT win the election!! I almost never bet, and when I do I never win! I alone have the power to sway this election!!! This is a responsibility I should take VERY seriously!!

Take betting lines with a grain of salt. Most of my Republican friends are bettors where very little of my democrat friends are. Not sure why that is but you're not going to find many voting for the other candidate which makes the odds swayed to Trump..

Sounds like a foolproof plan. The only problem is then Kamala wins and though it’s different, I don’t see it as a better alternative. We are effed either way

It doesn't matter what the betting line is. I can't recall EVER winning a bet! Granted, I can't bet on sports outside of horse racing, and the one time I did bet on a horse race my horse didn't just lose. It got shot!

Whoever I bet on will not win. It's as simple as that!!
