Breitbart ^ | 09/28/2024 | OLIVIA RONDEAU

More Americans identify as Republicans than Democrats at this point in the election season for the first time in decades, a Gallup poll reveals.

Not only did 48 percent of respondents say they either identify as Republicans or are leaning Republican for the upcoming election — compared to just 45 percent who identified as Democrats — Gallup analysts also said that “nearly all” measures that have shown some relationship to past presidential election outcomes are favoring the GOP as well.

Sounds good to me. This election feels like 1988.

A similar skew in attitudes among the so-called “independents” is also going on, in which the very real fear of going over the edge of the cliff is taking hold.

An old Chinese curse - “May you live in interesting times.”

I thought there were more Independents than are left over in this poll.

I didn’t think Americans were that smart. I’m still skeptical, we’ll see.

There is a real, psychological thing about wanting to jump on the winning team to share the joy when it happens. Let us cultivate that and welcome those to join our team last minute to be on the winning side!
Let Harris and the Dems enjoy their sad sads

Is there really a election tilting remainder of voters anywhere out there that haven’t already decided? I doubt it.

It’s the new counter-culture. So much of our society (movies, tv, music, news, commentary, sports, academia and large corporate interests including banks and funds and union leaders) is in the progressive tank. Heck even my darn phone “news” can’t help but give me a top story every day gushing over Kamala or blasting Trump or Vance despite the fact I never read them. It’s forced. The reaction is a growing opposition by people turned off by the constant drumbeat of political and social programming. It’s too over the top and that generates distrust. Even among those who might otherwise be somewhat sympathetic, the inundation and infiltration of social and political agendas into every public interest is just tiresome and grating.

More Americans identity as AMERICANS than democrats.

The terms are mutually exclusive.

When you are witnessing the real time destruction of your country while it’s simultaneously being overrun by CRIMINAL immigrants, it tends to wake many of the sleeping.
