One thing is for sure. The next four years will be good for CNN and MSNBC if Trump wins. If Harris wins, it will be good for Fox News.
I think you will continue to see a slow decline after an early uptick for say a year. Internet pundits are slowly rising as they find an audience and young people just don't have cable.

Either way podcasts will get their due as a new major tool, with several having to grapple with a new responsibility to voters.

*note* I will be showering after this because I hate the thought of agreeing on anything with you so I must wash away the eeeek.
It was time for your monthly shower anyways, remember?! 😂

Really? Um, no. I will head home after my shift, make some breakfast, catch some zzzzz's. Check out some pundits for fun later.

In fact here is how I plan to watch it that night.

I will open my browser to 4 tabs. CNN for actual speedy and clear results. Probably muted. And Breaking Points for general running commentary, probably on my phone.

As results come in if it's good news for Harris I will switch a bit to Fox to the meltdown. If it's good news for Trump I will switch to MSNBC for the meltdown.

A clear winner early I will play Diablo 4 when the coverage gets monotonous.

I will not get emotional about either way really. Why should I?
Same here, I much prefer Trump wins but I wont lose any sleep if he doesnt. Life goes on

I'm surprised they haven't started asking those a month ago.
They would if they could. But you kinda need a winner to start to figure out the primaries. Kamala win she gets another kick at the can.

Trump win and the front runners on the GOP side change up.

We in Canada are reaching a countdown of whether the brutality of these tariffs will be imposed on us if The Democrats do not retain the Whitehouse.
This will be the fuel to kick start a tit for tat trade war. That is why it is important for Harris to win handily for the sake of the Canadians!!

"Ahead of Harris’ speech in Pennsylvania in the majority-Latino city of Allentown, a Puerto Rican pastor, the Rev. Luis Cortez Jr., took the stage after Matthew Tuerk, Allentown’s first Latino mayor.
Tuerk denounced the racist comments about Puerto Rico at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally, and Cortez spoke about bearing witness to Trump’s misdeeds, a list that included Trump’s immigrant family separation policies, his administration’s mishandling of Hurricane Maria and his open pondering of deploying the military against U.S. citizens."

Trump has not explicitly condemned the remarks and neither has he apologized. PA for Harris.

if Trump somehow got in and PP also got in things would be grave. PP would be on his knees quicker than Trump in his Putin 'meetings'

Agree that Trump and Pee Pee would push our two Nations to the edge of the precipice!!
Remember that during the USMCA Trade negotiations, Pee Pee was constantly demanding why Chrystia Freeland was not caving in to Trump's demands by accepting his part of the deals that would have screwed Canada. Luckily that Freeland was having none of it and along with Mexico, renegotiated one that was on a more level playing field for all three nations!!

Nonsense. :)
You can ask well in advance of knowing who any of the contenders are really going to be?
Start asking if Vance should run.
Bring DeSantis up again.
Poll Hillary Clinton for no logical reason.

If they thought the poll would get headlines, they would do it. :D

You mean if Trump got in he would immediately do something terrible for Canada like cancel the Keystone XL pipeline?

Just a reminder that Trump initiated the revision of the NAFTA agreement, not Canada, not Mexico. He worked together with them so that everyone agreed on a fair new arrangement.

We have to thank Chrystia Freeland as she played tough on Trump's initial plans that did not appeal to Canada. Trump wanted to go ahead without Canada's involvement.
No way that the House under Pelosi would pass such an agreement without Canada. Great that the final deal then with Freeland's re-negotiations was passed with a unique Canada / Mexico co-operation in this respect. It became then known as the CUSMA Trade Deal:

We actually have to thank Brian Mulroney for being Canada's envoy for CUSMA negotiations.
Trump accomplished a better deal for the US while Canada basically maintained some things without getting a worse deal.

I would give Freeland all the credit in the manner of which she stood firm, even though Pee Pee was constantly bawling his eyes out as to why she was not accepting the proposed deal in the early stages. Actually, Freeland is a very good negotiator in this respect!!

Who do Canadians want as the next U.S. president — Harris or Trump? Poll reveals the answer, and Canadians aren’t all happy about it
Canadian righties weren't all pleased with the results of a recent Leger poll that suggests a clear winner if voters up North had a choice:

Canadians are expressing some disagreement with the results of a Leger pollthat discussed Canadian perceptions of the upcoming federal elections in the U.S., revealing that the majority of the local survey takers would give their vote to Kamala Harris and not Donald Trump to become the next President of the United States.

The poll, which was conducted from October 18 to 22, 2024, showed a significant 62% of Canadians would choose U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris over former President Donald Trump if they had the opportunity to vote in the 2024 presidential election. This preference reflects Canadians' belief that Harris is better equipped to address critical issues such as climate change, trade relations, immigration, and the economy.

They are that shameless, but they won't do until they get PAID to. And the payers don't need to fill airtime yet.

You think Freeland actually came up with anything herself? Seriously? She had zero experience in international trade until Trudeau was elected and put her in that role.
At the end of the day the US came out better than it was before. Canada & Mexico basically kept status quo.
Better was Trump's intention. Anything that he "gave up" was by design. He's the king of the art of the deal.

On a human level do you prefer a racist misogynist psychopath who said he liked to grab women by the vagina or a woman who did consent to perform a few blowjob to get where she is. the idea here is consentement. i am now all blue.
