Fun fact, in 2020 in only 4 states Biden and Trump won every single county.

Massachusetts, Hawaii, West Virginia and Oklahoma. 

 

Trump will win in the rural parts of NYS and parts of Long Island, but he'll lose the densest parts of NYC to Biden.  Where the dense parts of NYC goes, NYS follows.

 

Same thing in California.  It's the dense southern part of the state that always delivers votes to the Democrats.  Trump will take certain small parts of Northern California.

With retailers starting to lower prices, let's see if Biden's poll numbers improves as the deflation that the electorate wants is finally here.

Retailers are lowering prices because they are beginning a price war.  Target is taking the first shots because their stock is down 40% from it's high.  Same thing is starting to happen with the fast food restaurants. 

 

Inflation, unfortunately, is still ongoing.

 

 

However, if I were the Democrats, I'd take advantage anyways and claim as much of the shine from these price wars as I could.

 

People will react to what's being taken from their pocketbooks or in the case of retail price warring; what's being left in them.

Yeah, Biden needs to pound on this. He needs all the help he could get with his abysmal polling and apparently five o'clock nuclear amargedon going on within the dem party.

Prices are coming down in anticipation of a resounding victory by Herr VonSh*tsHisPants in the Presidential election - Faux News.

Each Count comes with a minimum sentence term.


Hopeful the Judge gives him at least a year for each.

I think the QOP has to nominate TRUMP.  They changed their rules after the last convention where some delegates were asked to vote their conscious and are now forced to vote as their state results dictated.  TRUMP is the nominee as long as TRUMP remains.  The only way it changes is if he dies of if he resigns.

Trump verdict live updates: Trump found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records, becoming the first U.S. president to be convicted of criminal charges

Donald Trump was convicted of falsifying business records to influence the 2016 presidential campaign Thursday in a historic trial that saw a former U.S. president face criminal charges for the first time.

 

A New York jury found Trump guilty of 34 counts, related to a $130,000 payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. The prosecution had alleged Daniels was paid to keep secret a 2006 tryst she had with Trump in order to influence the results of the 2016 election, which Trump ultimately won.

 

The trial lasted a month and a half and was plenty eventful. In addition to the fiery testimonies of Daniels and Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen, Trump was held in contempt of court 10 times and fined $10,000 for violating a gag order against attacking people involved with the trial. Many Republican leaders, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, travelled to New York to speak out in support of the 2024 Republican presidential candidate.

 

Trump, who did not testify in his defence, has yet to be sentenced in the case and is likely to appeal the verdict. The result may have an impact on Trump's chances to reclaim the White House, however. Recent Yahoo News/YouGov polling suggested a conviction would hurt Trump in head-to-head polling against President Joe Biden.

Rigged trial, crooked judge! We have heard all of this before!

Convenient to forget he was found guilty by a jury of his peers and not the judge.

Needs to spend the rest of his life in Gen Pop.  Make him come to terms with his issues with the media via a hefty diet of BBC.
