    I think Kamala has suck the oxygen out of the room for RFK Jr.
  • I don't trust polls, but I do trust data. I especially trust Dr. Lichtman's methodology and respect his tremendous knowledge and skills.
  • “The first party to retire it’s eighty year old candidate. Is going to be the party that wins the election.” Nikki Haley
  • seems like this interviewer lacks basic listening comprehension abilities if he genuinely believes Harris was calling "half the country" weird. That's obviously not what she said. I don't even know how you get that from what she said? what kind of a question was that?
  • @Max_Maximus_69
    Now he's on board...before it he called the Dems "feckless". I'm losing respect for this guy.
  • @deepakroy6380
    I always follow this man regarding U.S. election over everything.
  • Harris will probably play it fairly safe in choosing a VP. Doesn't want to take the negative attention away from Vance.
  • @cm1545a
    Didn't this same guy say it would be a disaster like...2 weeks ago?
  • Didn’t Alan say the Democrats must stick with Biden? Now, he is singing a different tune very suddenly?
  • @woke1340
    This guy literally said that the Dems should stick with Biden
  • @jackhovatter
    Dr. Toupee said on his own channel that swapping for Kamala was a bad idea…. Dickridin PhD
  • @et34t34fdf
    He says that now, after begging dems to keep Biden on the ticket prior to dropping, lmao!
