Still undecided about the election?

If people are still undecided in THIS election, they shouldn't be allowed to vote.

Just sayin...

Yes, as if they are roughly equal.  WTF???

Worried US allies are asking the same question.  Since Harris appeals to a wider range of people, she is a strong favorite in popular vote.  But flawed electoral college gives Trump the advantage despite Harris being the better candidate with superior policies.  Blame Fox news, X and billionaires for closeness of election race.  Years of misinformation have consequences.   Also for decades, there has been parity between democrat and republican parties indicated by political pendulum swinging back and forth.  No party has won more than 3 consecutive federal elections. 

What are some of those superior policies, besides being pro-choice? And to be clear, i'm not saying being pro-choice is "superior".

On the economy, most economists agree Harris has better policies because of lower inflation, federal deficits and higher economic growth.  She wants modest improvements to make life more affordable for middle class Americans.  Bigger tax credit for parents.  Boosting the minimum wage.  Building more homes.  More small business loans.  Expanding medicare to cover home care for seniors.  In contrast, Trump wants drastic changes.  High tariffs for all imports.  Mass deportation.  Loss of independence for federal reserve in setting interest rates.  Tax cuts for the rich.  However US doesn't need radical changes because economy is doing fine with low unemployment, low inflation and strong economic growth.  Instead Trump risky policies could do more harm than good.

 I agree with most of that, in theory. I lean conservative but I am ultra liberal on certain issues. However, I am vehemently for mass deportations, and it is a key issue for me. Having open borders is bad for the economy, and bad for the country. Regardless of how some will try to spin it, the economic stimulation that comes from illegals living, working, existing, does compensate for the added drain on the economy. And while some may be out of touch, or possibly too elitist to realize it, dropping more poor people into communities with existing poor people, draining already limited resources for said people, you're not doing these people any favors. The drugs that pickyback through relaxed borders, fent specifically, is decimating communities across the U.S. These aren't asylum seekers. We have to stop rolling out the red carpet. Merit based immigration is what we need.

Likewise, I am for tariffs, when used correctly. I see a lot of talk of the cost of tariffs being passed on the consumer. I have always been under the impression that the whole idea of tariffs was to promote domestic production by removing the incentive to purchase cheap foreign, usually Chinese, made goods. Now there are certain things we just aren't going to start producing here. If I need a clothes hamper, I want the ability to just go buy a cheaply made Walmart clothes hamper. However, something like steel, we have a history of producing in the country. We need to move away from a reliance on cheap, Chinese steel. Tariffs would promote that. As we lose production jobs to automation, the more things we can produce domestically, the better. We are literally turning our biggest enemy into the world's biggest super power one Amazon purchase at a time.

And on the subject of foreign policy, I do not agree with funding Ukraine's war with Russia, nor Israel's in the middle east. These are the biggest issues to me this election cycle.
