    The October surprise will be an AI generated video of one or probably both candidates saying something incredibly inflammatory that feeds the character bias against them - statements that are so over the top so no one can miss it about racism, sexism, socialism, guns, personal life and other too hot topics. Other countries have people who do nothing else in their work day. Its coming.

    Did you catch the new laws going into effect in October in Florida? Several of them, and you will not like many of them. Florida is a Red state getting redder.

    That's funny, because that's where TDS in the brain is located. :eek::D;)

    Thanks. Now we know the biological source of Trump's derangement.

    And then there's the other form of TDS and that too is unfortunately very real.

    Is nihilism some other term that you heard as an insult and now use that way without any knowledge as to what it is? Kind of like how you use commie and socialist between advocating for socialist policies.

    There must be a new October surprise coming shortly about Trump.

    The likes of Charlie Kirk and Lara Trump are preemptively claiming it is AI generated. It must be really, really bad.

    Mark Halperin is on X going on about some damn thing that will matter even to some MAGA or may just build up clicks.

    North Carolina is the next Florida. NC is extremely hard to poll and Democrats think they have a chance
    They're wasting their time and money there. Edit: And the Trump team is wasting time and money 8n NC as well. It's Trump +7

    There was a 70,000 vote difference last election and 400,000 people have moved here since then - Top states are from NY and Virginia. This election the Pub Gov candidate is a disaster and the current Gov is a Dem. Dems have a chance. No slam dunk for either party here although Trumpers have an edge.

    Until there is an NC version of the Villages I think they will continue to be the mashup of Virginia and South Carolina they already are.

    Trump is +7 in North Carolina and +16 in South Carolina. North Carolina polls left of Georgia and votes right of Georgia.

    Neither the Harris team or Trump team understands North Carolina. Both are wasting resources there. It is solid for Trump, period. Conservative types moving to East Carolina are canceling out the more liberal voters in the "triangle." Per Rich Baris

    Trump +7 in North Carolina. Barnes and Baris agree that's about the right number. My strategy is to listen to the smartest experts and to ignore the noise

    Realize you're talking to someone that will claim that the election was stolen unless Trump wins

    I think trump wins north carolina, but this is a wildly inaccurate picture.

    Okay. I'll be very surprised if Trump wins by less than 5.5%. We'll see.
