Latest US Polls - 2024 Candidates/2024 General Election - Biden Era

 RealClearPolitics:  Reports on its poll of polls, VP Harris 49.2%, Former President Trump 47.7%.

Lets Get Real:

THE latest polls have Trump leading by 2% or Harris by 5% or tied.  Thus you can see why Democrats are getting their knickers in a twist, Harris is the media darling for the Liberal press, female, a Californian Liberal, and black.   The VP might still win, but its tough, could this  be 2000 or 2016 again.  ANOTHER Trump term, this blogs political gut is saying YES.

Trump on the way to New York - 2024 Candidate/2024 General Election

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 5.27pm post the following, " Trump leaves Mar-a-Lago for Manhattan court date...Donald Trump is on his way to New York for his arraignment tomorrow on criminal charges related to his pay-off of an adult film star.  "

Lets Get Real:

Thus the Donald Trump show starts tomorrow, its all PR and nothing to do with the law, the Prosecutor is out to make his political bones with the Democratic Party, the setting for the hearing and case is WRONG, who in New York is not a Democratic voter and will say anything to get on the Jury.  If the prosecutor wants the case he should agree to it being placed outside of New York City and the State.  Whatever you think of Trump he should have his day in Court, a witch hunt trial will only give him the Oval Office in January 2025, if you  are sane you think that is a BAD IDEA on any front.  The Media want cameras in the Court, if the Judge allows, it would be change, as he normally does not have cameras in his Court.  The ruling on cameras will decide the tone of the trial, cameras means is will be shown 24/7 on the news channels, there are more important stories out there!!  Big day tomorrow, God help us all.

The PLUS side for Trump on getting arrested - 2024 Candidate / 2024 General Election

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 12.48pm post the following, " 

Trump may use arrest to his 'electoral advantage'.....

Donald Trump may think his arrest can be used to his "electoral advantage" and it may not do him any harm to be taken from the police station to the court in public, Joshua Rozenberg, a legal commentator, has said.  "

Lets Get Real:

The walking in to the Court will not be the usual, it seems that there will be no handcuffs on the former President and no perp walk, those that do not like Trump will not get what hey wanted, those that respect the OFFICE OF THE US Presidency will see some respect shown to the former President.  The Trump Mug shot will be on T -shirts being sold by the former President once he gets back to his home in Florida.  One can expect that the Trump poll numbers will go up, he already has a 30+ point lead over his nearest rival the Governor of Florida.   The charge that faces Trump is the weakest of the cases in front of him, and there would be no charge if Trump was not running for President again.  Richard Nixon should have run again, and Nixon was a lot smarter than Trump, the carnival starts tomorrow. 

Trump CHARGED in the US - 2024 Candidate/ Presidential Election 2024

Sky News: Reports " Donald Trump indicted over alleged hush money payment to adult film actress...A grand jury voted to indict Trump over possible crimes related to a $130,000 (£105,000) payment... "

Lets Get Real:

This is a massive mistake by the Democratic Prosecutor in New York, its the weakest CASE against Trump, this is what the former President wanted, he wants the mug shot and the perp walk, he wants the headlines in ALL THE PAPERSS and CNNN will cover it in detail, how a mighty New Network has fallen.   This charge could place Trump in the OVAL  OFFICEN in 2025.  This news will blow any future Republican candidate out of the water, and worse any candidate will have to be critical of the Democrats and the Prosecutor, the Prosecutor will be dragged before the US House Committee to explain his actions.  This is the first former President charged after leaving OFFICE, the hours and days this will take up, its not worth it, at its heart is a prosecutor traying to make his political bones, the cost to the US could be harsh, a President Trump, nothing is worth that cost. 

UK/EU Talks suspended due to COVID 19 FEAR - Health/Transitional Phase

BBC News: Reports " The EU and UK chief negotiators have stepped back from post-Brexit trade talks after a member of the EU team tested positive for Covid-19. "

Lets Get Real:

Call this blog a bit cynical, but why NOW has someone from the EU side come back with COVID - 19.  Of course it could be above board, so one hopes everyone is well, on the other hand it could be the EU playing games, trying to force the UK to extend the talks and negate the 31st December deadline.  The PM himself is in isolation, at least we saw a pic of the MP who has the virus.  The PM should call in his team via Zoom or other technology and decide the issue once and for all, if the talks are going well then, we carry on, if not pull the plug.  This blog is for pulling the plug, the talks have become a FARCE.

Trump and his Shithole Countries - Part 4 - Trump Era

Telegraph: Reports " Donald Trump walks back on 's---hole countries' comment as UN rights office issues rebuke "

Lets Get Real:

The blowback for President Trump will come in the 2018 Mid Terms, the African - American VOTE should raise after the alleged comments, also other minority groups could come out to support the Democrats.  In 2020 if Ms Winfrey decides to run the race could be over, the TV chat show host is a billionaire, has her own brand, and of course is African - American, if she runs the Democratic ticket is her's for the asking.  The question could she win, HRC was meant to be President twice, in 2008 she was beaten for the nomination by then Senator Barack Obama, while in 2016 she was beaten by Donald Trump, the plus side for Ms Winfrey is that she has charisma and her personal story, while HRC has Bill, enough said.  This racist comment could come back to bite POTUS in 2020. 

Conservatives in 17% Poll LEAD - Election 2016

Guardian - Live Reporting: Reports on a new Guardian/ICM poll, " Here are the new figures, and how they compare to the previous Guardian/ICM polling figures from early September, before the conference season started. Conservatives: 43% (up 2), Labour: 26% (down 2),Ukip: 11% (down 2), Lib Dems: 8% (down 1), Greens: 6% (up 2) "

Lets Get Real:

THE PM has already stated that she is not going to call an election this year, but the polls have been excellent since May come to power and the low opinion of Corby by Labour supporters.   It could be argued that the PM should reconsider, get a nice majority, then press ahead with Brexit, even an HARD Brexit.    Thus what about a October Election Prime Minister.

General Election in 2016? - May Era

Telegraph - Live Reporting: Reports " Jeremy Corbyn demanded a snap general election yesterday in a move that critics said was a “foolish” attempt to “hang on” as leader that could see 100 Labour MPs lose their seats. "

Lets Get Real:

The Labour is broke, the leader is at war with the MPs, Shadow Cabinet Ministers have to do double jobs, and even then that does not cover a working opposition.   The hard left of the Labour Party is more interested in destroying the Labour Party than in giving up leadership. This can only end when the Labour Party splits, its only a matter of time NOT IF.    The moderates with Labour should form a Center Party, then we can have a effective Opposition.  The Labour Party either reforms or it goes the way of the dodo, it's their choice, do the MPs have the guts to follow through.
