How can anyone act surprised that the most likely outcome from the start, appears to be what is going to happen?
By every indication, Trump has the momentum and lead, although slight, in the 2024 election polling. With barely more than a week left before the election Trump has had the lead for a good while now in the Real Clear Polling battleground states aggregates taking the lead on Sept 22nd, and has now taken the lead in the Head to Head national polling, as well the national multi candidate polling.
Now, any honest assessment of this race, no one should be surprised by this occurrence. By any measure, Harris is a weak candidate. Her only electoral experience has been to win 2 statewide races in California. Running as a democrat in a state where a ham sandwich will win as long as they have a D beside their name, and as Willie Brown’s “protege”, the path through the Democratic primaries was effectively cleared for her. Her attempt to run for the Presidency in 2020 was an abject failure, not even being able to survive until the first primary contests occurred. Furthermore, up until the push by the media and democrats to remake her image once she replaced Biden, she polled as the least popular VP in the modern era.

“The Left”
Right there is the problem in perspective... The “left” is not who is in control of all this. They are but a pawn in the bigger picture of reality. So are our GOP representatives on the hill who will fight against Trump tooth and nail if he does happen to be elected.
Point I am making is, this will not be over if Trump is elected, it is not going to stop, the battle will just be starting...

It is time for each of us to thing about all the small things we can be doing in the coming battle.
“I think God helps those who help themselves.”
I absolutely agree, and maybe this might happen right after the ballgame is over... Important priorities first... We won’t even boycott Charmin and choose another brand of toilet paper to stand on principle to make a difference.
We are our own worst enemy. We have waited in “comfort” until we are now just deer in the headlights. Now we are going to be presented with the results of our own inaction and lack of resolve.
We should have “helped ourselves” a long time ago. He gave us signs and we completely ignored them...
Who is this ‘we’?
There are plenty of people here and in the country who have fought the good fight for a long time.
You seem as a rule to tend toward negativity and fatalism. Why should God listen to your prayers, when by your attitude and pronouncements you prove that you don’t believe there’s a chance of success?
“It is time for each of us to think about all the small things we can be doing in the coming battle.”
ABSOLUTELY! The beast we battle survives on money. We CAN starve it to death. But comfortable lifestyles just cannot be compromised to do this, to even think so is absolute heresy!
So we have made our choice very clear.
...Yes everyone needs to get out and vote, but if you think Trump Supporters are going to get complacent, I don’t think you’ve been paying attention for the last 9 years.
These people will crawl over broken glass just to cast their vote. There has not been any politician that has elicited so much consistent support in my lifetime. ...

Complacency is never a good idea. Sure, Trump’s base will show up; but he needs votes from outside his base. Why give any new Republican voter cause to think that a vote for Trump, which may have to be explained to Trump-hating family members, is not needed?
“There are plenty of people here and in the country who have fought the good fight for a long time.”
Of course, So have I, it is my life. But I am honest and cannot lie to myself. I have been predicting and warning about this happening for forty years and no one would listen. I’m not the one giving up, everyone else gave up long ago when they should have done something back then. Now they are dragging my Grandchildren under with them... Where were “they” when something should have been done to prevent this???
They have been missing in action or out to lunch for forty years and NOW they decide they can reverse history and go back forty years to try again? That bridge has been burned a long time ago. Now we have to best design and build a bridge forward with what we have left which is now not much. That is just the reality of it. the whole problem with reality is that it is real...
I appreciate your assessment.
Should I have said “The Deep State”? Or, maybe “China”?
America’s Left is not the World’s, but it seems clear to me that the policies and agenda of the American Left are being used to control and destroy this country. The Uniparty, if you prefer, uses phony conservatives for its right, and hard-core Marxists for its left, even its presidential candidates. We have yet to see a Right-wing totalitarian claim charge, though that may be the endgame.
I will add my perspective that in 2016, even Trump was the Uniparty candidate. He was the Not-Hillary candidate and there was no other way to stop her.
“Should I have said “The Deep State”? Or, maybe “China”?”
Please watch this... Our true enemies are Global Corporations. They control everything in the world including all the “Industrial Complexes”, Financial, Pharma, Military, Etc. Even just about every country government in the world including our own through debt, shares, and asset acqusitions. And they are hell bent on completely enslaving the world under a one world government ruled by a “Corporate Board”. And unfortunately they are too big to fail as long as “we keep feeding them”. This is real, they control both political parties in our government, the Federal Reserve, the IMF, the World Bank, and just about every country and Corporation in the world.
The ONLY one they do not own yet is Russia... The war is Coincidence? No, they have their sights set on them too through the backdoor.

As I said before I don’t see any complacency, if you have chosen to vote for Trump, you aren’t likely going to sit at home... The reasons you decided to vote or Trump are likely highly personal... the Economy, Crime or the ugliness of the Harris campaign rhetoric.
I don’t think for one second anyone is going to get or be complacent because of some news article about the state of polls or momentum in the race.
I think that’s fear mongering... OOO don’t report we are winning the polls, even though we are, or we might have voters stay home.... What insanity is this?
That’s Democrat Underground logic going on right there, or more appropriately you buying into leftist logic.
