    I have no time for her for sending her son to a private school while acting like she was "one of us". My beef with sir **** that rules new new new Labour is that he has treated her like he has while welcoming tory ****ers into the party ... the same tory ****ers that have consistently voted for all the disgusting Tory policies that have wrecked so many lives.

    Tbh I find it unbelievable that are the only mainstream party that have never had a non white man as leader...in the past 4 years tories have had a woman and an Asian leader whereas the party for working people has had a ****ing Sir as a leader <laugh>

    I ain't arguing with you BTW...just still ranting... this is why I don't watch ****ing question time <laugh>

    I don't think the kind of republicans that get on juries would be in favour of his actions regarding Jan 6.

    I think there'll be quite a few traditional republican voters who will find this unpalatable.

    Very much what others have said - his PR machine will try and spin it as a witch-hunt but I certainly think it will be damaging in terms of voter numbers overall ...

    He'll probably still win though. The country's a joke.

    Still the favourite though it’s pretty tight. No point tying your money up now but if the odds were the same heading into it I’d say Biden is pretty good value at 11/8.

    Yeh you never know, voters may look into the abyss and draw back.

    Interesting why the Democratic message isn't getting through. The economy is doing well, inflation is low, employment is good. It's ahead of the rest of the world economically. Biden himself is probably their biggest hindrance.

    Middle America being overwhelmingly inbred thick ****s may be a factor.

    The crazy thing is that it will just embolden his supporters, who'll swallow the narrative that it's a conspiracy by the Biden administration to chastise a political opponent.

    You'd expect it the 'christian' right would be up in arms about him sleeping with a porn star whilst his wife was pregnant, but I don't think they care. Obviously we have vastly differing text in our bibles.

    Trump spent tremendous amounts of energy earlier in his political career to discredit the opinions of the press and judicial branch.

    It's paying off now, his base is incredibly loyal. Compare Trumps 40% to the Tories 40%.

    It took one scandal under Boris to start a 20%+ slide

    SKY interviews are suggesting that more Americans will vote for him, however, I hasten to add they are interviewing people in Nevada (Vegas), so is that because it's a hardcore Republican State?

    I'm sure if the same interviews were done in New York, the reverse would have been said.

    I don't know how many American states would vote Trump, regardless of anything he does - which beggars the question is this one of the problems with Federal states, you put one lunatic (Trump) in charge then there is little stopping their madness.

    Trump is the most polarising President in US history.

    Whilst he was president 88% of Republicans when asked stated they approved of his presidency, compared to only 6% of Democrats. He's also far more popular amongst blue collar workers for some reason, Biden is seen as out of touch. I actually think the Biden presidency has been a success domestically, but his foreign policy is weak.

    It's strange that people who focus most on domestic issues are going for Trump.

    Charisma is a powerful thing.

    And even some of the christian right will convince themselves it didn't happen.
