I think Harris is going to win. Violent insurrection will ensue once more.
No so sure, want her to, but at this hour of the morning here in Canada, watching MSNBC, where most of the pro Democratic analysts appear on the glum side as Trump is leading in most of the so called "battleground states" and Republicans also appear to be taking the House & Senate. I wonder how "Sleepy Joe" would have made out? Wish after that Republican comedians NYC "Puerto Rico floating garbage" comment that Biden had not referred to Trump supporters as "garbage", in similar fashion as Hillary called them "a basketful of deplorables" in 2016. Even though both of them were correct in my opinion, you just don't state the obvious, you keep those thoughts in your head. Hope Sleepy Joe didn't scupper her chances with that comment. Hope you are correct with your presidential prediction though!

Still not quite certain, but possible that Trump wins not only the electoral college but also the popular vote, the Senate and (less likely) the House.

Wonder if the Democrats will ever get round to blaming themselves for enabling this freak to have another go. My bet is the Russians, Trump ‘lies’ and the electorate themselves will be blamed first, rather than an administration which is massively unpopular and couldn’t even sell its achievements effectively, and a candidate who giggled when asked about the economy.

Starmer congratulates Trump.

The Democrats should have done much better, but it's tough when you're appealing to an epically stupid electorate - one that will happily elect a fascistic rapist because 'he's not a communist, like the other side', as I saw one Maga-hatted moron declare. Still, as Trump himself says, they won't have to bother with voting any more.

Farage creaming himself.

I see you take option 3.
 
Say what you like about Trump he's outsmarted the lacklustre Democrats and, more importantly, the overwhelmingly biased MSM twice in the past three elections. An American friend of mine who is a Democrat says he concentrates on weakness of the Democrats record over the four years particularly saying 'Do you feel richer than four years ago?' as well as the border issues. Harris was a lightweight and got found out very quickly. The fact so many black people voted for Trump speaks volumes about the arrogance of the way Democrats failed to read the room. Embarrassing for Starmer and Lammy having patently backed the wrong horse...

Trump's evil genius lies in the fact that he's been able to somehow convince the American electorate that he's 'anti-establishment' when his supporters include multi-billionaires Rupert Murdoch, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk - all controllers of elements of the mainstream media that you believe is overwhelmingly biased against him.
