Heading down the stretch

The rhetoric I am hearing these days tells me that the 2024 presidential election just might end in the manner I and millions of other Americans hope will occur.

There’s chatter about polling errors that could be revealed that place Vice President Kamala Harris in the driver’s seat en route to the Oval Office. Puerto Ricans are expressing rage over the comments about the island being populated by “garbage.” Donald Trump then clambered aboard a trash truck to, um, demonstrate something; it reminded me and others of the1988 campaign moment when Michael Dukakis boarded the tank and produced the Mother of Fatal Photo Ops.

Trump is flailing. Harris is sailing.

Will this be a runaway? Probably not. Pollsters are continuing to prepare us for a photo finish. I am continuing to have my doubts that the race will be as close as the pundits are telling us. I won’t predict a runaway, given my terrible record as a political predictor.

However, it is beginning to a bit better for the good guys.

  1. ā€œTrump is flailingā€, who are you trying to convince?

    The garbage truck move was gangster.

    A man living in Puerto Rico went around asking people if they are offended. Overwhelmingly, the response was no. The reason they gave, it was a comedian that said it and not Trump himself. And, he said it about the island and NOT the people. Many said that everyone knows they have a trash problem since they live on an island. Finally, many knew of Hinchcliffe there since heā€™s done things in the past to help draw awareness to the problem.

    Not sure where you get your information, but itā€™s certainly not from people on the ground.
