The anyone else, unfortunately for Trump, being Biden.
Out of interest in1960 the US pop. was 179m to 333m today.
Exactly. That's why Trigaaar's comment about Trump have more votes against him, needs taking into context. It's undoubtedly true that Trump had more votes against him than any other presidential candidate, it's true that Biden had more votes against him than any candidate other than Trump, and it's totally irrelevant.

As has been said It's also true that Trump became President with nearly 3 million votes less than Clinton.

Just listened to Trumps nephew on Jeremy Vine show. Trump apparently tells him to kill his own disabled child as he'll never know him. Tried to get his nephew removed from his grandfather's will. Few other nasty tidbits as well. What a Grade A c**t if anyone on here thought different before

Reports now the Harris has narrowed down her VP pick to Pennsylvania's governor, Josh Shapiro, or Minnesota's governor, Tim Walz.

Announcement expected tomorrow.

No you've joined the comments part way through and jumped on my post, but mine was a response to the daft comment that Harris is the most unpopular VP since polling began.

It's the comment that Harris was an unpopular VP that's totally irrelevant.

Whomever she chooses, I look forward to Lasvegan telling us that it was the worst possible choice for America, and it'd be a disaster if they won.

it's a matter of record Harris polling as VP has been the worst in history. just didnt seem to have any presence or achieve anything of note. what should be pointed out is that despite this, she is now considered neck and neck with Trump for the presidency. she seems to have been underestimated, overshadowed by a questionable Biden, Trump is very disliked, or all of the above.

It was leaked that it would be Shapiro, a former IDF soldier. That will go down well.

Or the polling isn't accurate. Remember CNN with 98% chance Clinton will win?

Hillary got more actual voters though, right? perhaps the polling is off, and Harris was never as unpopular and Trump is further behind than it looks.

Thats not how it usually pans out though.
She got roasted in the primaries for a reason, a lot of people are not familiar with her so give her the benefit of the doubt but that wont last. Also most recent polls ive seen have trump ahead in marginal seats.
