9. Harris will walk away with this
Mon Nov 4, 2024, 10:20 PM
Nov 4

No expert here - in fact I hardly follow much political news anymore

Trump won because too many people in the few deciding states didn't want to vote for Hillary. Those same people didn't ever want Trump, they just didn't want....

Harris will be the first female president. The only surprise here to me is that the GOPers let Trump run again. I honestly thought they'd offer their own version of "first female president" and make the POTUS race tight.
