  1. At this point I really do believe the theory that Newsweek is trying to reverse psychology people into thinking dumping Biden is a bad idea.

    This is just a completely absurd headline

  2. Newsweek again. “It’s okay to stay home, guys! He’ll just lose!”

  3. That speech was bad, he’s obviously in mental decline, he should drop out and let them bring in a younger candidate.

  4. NewsWeak: Polls continue to fluctuate within margin of error.

  5. “Trump took a shit on stage at the RNC, find out why this is bad for Biden”

  6. There’s no way they got a decent poll in 12 hours.

    Edit: Not based on polling at all, just some bookmaker. Pointless.

  7. I swear Newsweek changes this daily.

    One day it’s Trump will win in a blow out

    Next, it’s Biden is winning.

    Next, Trump is.

    But it’s always “how this is bad for Biden.”

    Fuck newsweek. How is this rag even still around today?

  8. “according to a leading bookmaker”…

    Now let’s see the polls.

  9. Newsweek is out for clicks.

    I hate Trump too but Newsweek has definitely been pumping out headlines that we on the left like to see.

    Just vote!

  10. Why does Newsweek get posted as a source so much in this sub?

  11. Newsweek is an illegitimate news source and should be banned from this sub. They write click bait articles targeted at this sub in order to gain easy revenue. They lack any journalistic integrity and operate without virtue.

  12. Before everyone starts to celebrate on here, r/conservative saw the speech as phenomenal and the duration as proof that he has the stamina to be president. This is going to be a fist fight. Kelly/Whitmer ’24!

  14. I’m blocking anyone who posts a story from Newsweek. WTF already!

  15. It’s because no one knows what the fuck is going to happen, so they can say what they want. Clinton was supposed to win in a blowout. Brexit was supposed to fail. Polls don’t mean shit, because no two people interact with the methods of polling in the same way. We cling to polls because the unknown is scary. We always try to quantify things we don’t understand, it’s a human trait.

  16. Look, I hate him as much as the next guy – but this daytrading on the up and downs of the horse race is ridiculous and embarrassing for the media and all journalism.

    There isn’t a single person that either watched that or didn’t watch it that has changed their mind in the last 12 hours. It’s all just horseshit for clicking.

  17. All of the maga voters sound exactly like Hillary voters from 2016. Way too confident.

  18. Trump’s chances of winning slump.
    Biden’s chances of winning take a hit.
    Trump takes commanding lead.
    Trump gets no polling boost after shooting.
    Biden to step down.
    Biden to stay.
    Dems want Harris to step aside as well.
    Democrats feel good about Harris.
    Polls show Harris behind other dems.

    Have I missed anything from the past 48 hours?

  19. I had chuckle at headline Repubs Scared Women Will Vote Them Out In A Landslide. I sure hope there’s enough women who don’t want to slide backward. Doomed to repeat history because some group thinks it couldn’t have been as bad as the history books say…

  20. Next week: Trump chances of winning is through the roof after he shits himself during an interview.

    Vote.

  21. Rambling for 2 hours about nothing. Watching it was a surreal and terrible experience. Watching trashy D-list “celebrities” like hulk hogan and kid rock worship and felate donald trump in between prayer sessions, acting like this lying, thieving, sexual predator with no conscience or values is anointed and blessed by God. Disgusting.

    They said not one thing about their policy intentions, probably because they don’t have any besides the ones put forward by project 2025 and they now know those are extremely unpopular with the public so they can’t talk about it, other than by slandering less fortunate people from other countries. Not one mention of how these people plan to feed the hungry, heal the sick, or house the homeless. Fake-ass Christians. God doesn’t know you.

  22. I am true Amerikan demokrat and is first time I nyet vote for Biden! I am vote Krumpf for make Amerika grate!

  23. He’s an entertainer. A bad one, but an entertainer nonetheless. People only pay attention to him when he’s talking shit. If he tries to talk policy, everyone turns the channel.

  24. I mean that’s just called a convention bump my guy. Kamala will get one too after the dnc convention

  26. >The William Hill odds of a Trump victory in November lengthened from 2/5 (71.4 percent) on Thursday before his convention address to 8/15 (65.2 percent) on Friday.

    Wow what a decline! Only 65% he’ll win!

  27. This article is complete garbage. When are we as a human race going to finally realize that these “news” organizations are just blowing smoke and provide no value to society whatsoever? If you want real presidential election odds, you need to look at poll aggregates like those provided by 538. Those have not changed significantly in any way. Articles like this are pure click bait and it’s disgusting seeing people get rich off of something that is so cancerous for our democracy and societal integrity.

  28. This is so stupid last night was all about how Biden is stepping aside this morning it is all about how bad the speech at the RNC was and Trump is going to lose. When has Trump ever in history gave a good speech. This isn’t news. This is click bait.

  29. Continually blown away that there are people who listen to that conman talk and think something along the lines of, “Well, I was totally in that guy’s camp before, but he just said a couple of things that don’t resonate really well with me and I’m thinking of voting for the other guy now“

    People.

    Are.

    Morons.

  30. There is no god damn way they have any reliable data to prove this less than a day after the speech.

  31. Don’t believe any headlines.

    Don’t think it’s in the bag.

    Don’t get lazy

    VOTE

  32. >The William Hill odds of a Trump victory in November lengthened from 2/5 (71.4 percent) on Thursday before his convention address to 8/15 (65.2 percent) on Friday.

    >Over the same period, Biden’s odds of securing reelection later this year deteriorated substantially to just 12/1 (7.7 percent) as the president faces pressure from within his own party to withdraw from the race.

    As with most of the threads posted in this sub with an optimistic headline the real information is in the article itself. Every article with a headline like “Trump is losing ground in…” has a stat in the article that shows he’s still a massive favorite.

    Go out and vote. Pray Biden wins. But honestly at this point it’s naive to get excited over optimistic headlines like this. Trump’s support isn’t flipping drastically and even if it does it’s not like Biden’s is rising.

    I’m voting for Biden but I’ve accepted our fate.
