The problem about polls is that Trump/MAGA supporters are either ashamed to say they vote for them or distrustful of anything that's not clearly on their side (eg Fox News). That's why they've been outperforming the polls on election day. Pretty hard to gauge the actual inclination of the electorate.
No, thats 2016, now they are open about voting for him The problem with 2020 is they did not include people who just said Trump and refused to go further with the polling, now they are including those people
I think that was much more of a factor in 2016 than it is now. People forget that Trump already was the president for 4 years, so he's not some wildcard outlier one has to support from the shadows anymore, but very much mainstream.

I’m guessing you’re not American. The American news cycle moves absurdly quickly. The speaker debacle is not going to affect almost anyone’s vote given everything else that’s happened since then

It's a very informative video, but what I don't understand is when you say that Dems are "marginally less likely to achieve" a trifecta than Republicans, meaning it's probably very unlikely Dems will win this, why are you talking about this scenario in the first place?
If you ignore all the polls, yes. I also see you still haven't learned to pay attention to swing state polls and still are looking at national polls. It's almost like you're trying to ignore the actual metrics.
Washington, Oregon, CA , Nevada , new Mexico, New York , New England, plus one or two more , 12 blue states 38 Red states, if an earthquake knocks the 3 blue states into the sea , no more Democratic presidents . Whoopi ,,,not the earthquake, no more dems .
No. No they can't. I cannot emphasise this enough. There's a bigger chance of Big Bird from Sesame Street becoming President than there is of the Democrats winning a trifecta.
While I don't see any party getting a trifecta, it very much seems like any and all of these races could go either way. No combination of wins or losses would surprise me, unless one was a landslide in either direction.
You guys are really impressive with your research on these for being out of country - as a Mainer who was stoked about Golden and the ranked voting we have been so stoked he got through. Hopefully he can again!
@@justincaver324 This is like saying Eric Adams is going to be replaced by a republican in NYC because he is disliked in NYC. It’s pure wishful thinking
I won’t say Texas Cruz is “popular” but I do think democrats are grasping for the wind to think he will be unseated. The way I look at it, Beto Ororke didn’t come close to beating Cruz in 2018. Instead, a deeply unpopular Cruz still beat the most enigmatic and charismatic candidate the democrats have run in texas in decades. If Beto didn’t beat Cruz I don’t think Alred is going to have a chance.
It’s to say the midterms would be essential if Kamala wins. Gerrymandering makes it basically impossible to win the house this time around and other than the potential of an Independent winning in Nebraska and Allred winning in Texas the balance of power in the senate is very much in the Rep’s favour. But I think a midterm election would definitely favour democrats IF Kamala were to win. Since the focus would be on trying to enact her agenda and the swaths of seats up for re-election that time around give them a better fighting chance. But ofc that’s all speculation.
Not everyone is going to be behind Kamala's agenda lol. Much like with the 2010 midterms there may actually be extreme backlash, it would all depend on how she acted as president.
It is actually there so wierdos from coasts cant control the whole country. Also think again. A lot more conservatives dont vote in states like IL, CA, NY as there is no hope of winning the state. But with no electoral college they will vote. You seem to overestimate dem support nationally.
The ladies are voting in big numbers. Hell hath no fury like women scorned by getting their rights taken away from them. I think Dems sweep senate, house and presidency.
There’s one possible upset I think you forgot to mention that has a non-zero chance of happening. Not particularly likely but Kunce is pretty centrist and Hawley is fairly unpopular. When you look at how close Blunt vs. Kander was in 2016 and consider the fact that a lot of people are only voting down the ticket this election, we could see a surprise flip there.
The North Carolina Supreme Court's ruling legalizing gerrymandering has turned the state that's 50%-50% Dem-Rep from a 7-7 House delegation into a guaranteed 5-9 GOP majority, with one Democrat in one of the tightest races in the country. Gerrymandering needs to go.

Long answer is that its possible, but possible in the same way that winning the lottery is possible. Its so unlikely that it may aswell be impossible, but regardless there is still a very small chance
@@tuxtitan780 Yeah.. the odds look very bad already. She's slipping in the polls even 2-3 weeks before the election day so it's a very low chance she gets the presidency. And the upcoming congress vote heavily favors the Republicans. All in all, voters are putting their concern for the economy on top.
@quanghungtran3581 i honestly think it's more likely than not that the house goes blue. The senate is almost certainly going red. And while Harris has slipped in the polls, I'm not going to make any calls myself yet. The polls keep going back and forth. It seems like for a couple weeks, Trump will gain ground, and the next couple Harris will. I think that at the moment, Trump probably does have the advantage and is more likely to win despite the national polling still being in favor of Harris, but it's not a slam dunk either way. Regardless, it's going to be damn near impossible for the democrats to get a trifecta. The Republicans at least have a more than one in a billion chance to, but imo it's more likely than not that neither will.
Well, someone won the trifecta.

If you ignore all the polls, yes. I also see you still haven't learned to pay attention to swing state polls and still are looking at national polls. It's almost like you're trying to ignore the actual metrics.
🤣🤣🤣
Gotta love it how these people just go braindead on random days!
Governor Kathy Hochul's last name is pronounced hoe-cull, not hock-cull.
However you pronounce it, Republicans would like to thank her for being so awful as a governor that they control the house because of it.
Washington, Oregon, CA , Nevada , new Mexico, New York , New England, plus one or two more , 12 blue states 38 Red states, if an earthquake knocks the 3 blue states into the sea , no more Democratic presidents . Whoopi ,,,not the earthquake, no more dems .
No. No they can't. I cannot emphasise this enough.
There's a bigger chance of Big Bird from Sesame Street becoming President than there is of the Democrats winning a trifecta.
What are your predictions? Who will win what?
exactly
While I don't see any party getting a trifecta, it very much seems like any and all of these races could go either way. No combination of wins or losses would surprise me, unless one was a landslide in either direction.
@@Talisguy nah dems aren't winning senate
At this point I would take option number one
No.
You guys are really impressive with your research on these for being out of country - as a Mainer who was stoked about Golden and the ranked voting we have been so stoked he got through. Hopefully he can again!
3:49 Homer Simpson 😂
3:52 isnt all that popular is one way of putting it, another way of putting it is he has like MAYBE a 10% chance of winning
Minor correction: 0:53 you depict the MPs, but there are actually 3 vacants (not only 2)
While i think they have a good chance to flip the house, keeping the senate will be difficult unless they could pull an upset
Begging for dem likes cringe.
increase the cap of the house of rep from 435 to 3500 members
noticed the Simpsons reference in the election card example
We live in hope.
“Unpopular” Ted Cruz? He is one of the top national republicans, he is not losing
OK, he still hated in Texas 🥴
@@justincaver324 hated in Texas by the liberals in Austin im sure, you’re delusional if you think he is losing the state.
@@justincaver324 This is like saying Eric Adams is going to be replaced by a republican in NYC because he is disliked in NYC. It’s pure wishful thinking
@@phattorangecatto
Texas is becoming purple every year, soon it will be blue.
It is possible.
I won’t say Texas Cruz is “popular” but I do think democrats are grasping for the wind to think he will be unseated.
The way I look at it, Beto Ororke didn’t come close to beating Cruz in 2018. Instead, a deeply unpopular Cruz still beat the most enigmatic and charismatic candidate the democrats have run in texas in decades.
If Beto didn’t beat Cruz I don’t think Alred is going to have a chance.
The democrats should start taking office measurements now. This has in no way failed them before.
NY results should be interesting this time around.
This aged poorly
It’s to say the midterms would be essential if Kamala wins. Gerrymandering makes it basically impossible to win the house this time around and other than the potential of an Independent winning in Nebraska and Allred winning in Texas the balance of power in the senate is very much in the Rep’s favour.
But I think a midterm election would definitely favour democrats IF Kamala were to win. Since the focus would be on trying to enact her agenda and the swaths of seats up for re-election that time around give them a better fighting chance. But ofc that’s all speculation.
Not everyone is going to be behind Kamala's agenda lol. Much like with the 2010 midterms there may actually be extreme backlash, it would all depend on how she acted as president.
Short answer: no. Long answer: probably not, but it would be funny
Nevah say Nevah😂😂😂
Fellow american friends, doesn't matter what, just take Marjorie Taylor Green out of the congress. Please!
How about all?
I randomly met Adam Schiff at Jackson Hole
GET RID MARJORIE SHES THE WORSE
No. She's great
@@dqdq4083she’s q anon
She is from gerry mandered pizz a pool.
I don't think that is possible.
I’m surprised that you guys present more left side then right side. We will see in couple of weeks who does
Man don’t tell me there’s a candidate with the first name “Marionette”
😂😂😂 I didn't even think of that.
I've been watching Is Osborne and the fact that he's this close is INSANE!
Get rid of rhe electoral college. I'm voting a straight blue ticket. The rethugs are ridiculous.
🤡🤡🤡
It is actually there so wierdos from coasts cant control the whole country. Also think again. A lot more conservatives dont vote in states like IL, CA, NY as there is no hope of winning the state. But with no electoral college they will vote. You seem to overestimate dem support nationally.
I'm sure they'll find some excuse to keep everything deadlocked even if they do win it all.
The winnneeerrrrr takes it allllll🎶🎶🎶🎶
better than multi-party 🎶🎶 🎶
Mamma-Mia, here we go again. 😒🎶🎶🎶🎶 😂
Yes, we can
It is highly unlikely that the Democrats will win the house
It actually is more than likely
Winning the House is more likely than the Senate.
It's the Senate it really wouldn't put money on them winning. Reclaiming the House is likely.
More likely than the Senate
not at all, haha
But then they wouldn’t have any excuse to drag their heels…
If women and the younger generation come out to vote then a Trifecta for the Dems isn't impossible
The ladies are voting in big numbers. Hell hath no fury like women scorned by getting their rights taken away from them. I think Dems sweep senate, house and presidency.
gaza and israel have destroyed that hope
Younger Men are Much more right-wing than Young women, so "younger generation" isn't going to cut it
There’s one possible upset I think you forgot to mention that has a non-zero chance of happening. Not particularly likely but Kunce is pretty centrist and Hawley is fairly unpopular. When you look at how close Blunt vs. Kander was in 2016 and consider the fact that a lot of people are only voting down the ticket this election, we could see a surprise flip there.
Let’s hope the hell they don’t. America can’t handle anymore of there antics.
The North Carolina Supreme Court's ruling legalizing gerrymandering has turned the state that's 50%-50% Dem-Rep from a 7-7 House delegation into a guaranteed 5-9 GOP majority, with one Democrat in one of the tightest races in the country. Gerrymandering needs to go.
Openly taking side as an independent news organisation is not a good show. Why would I watch your other videos knowing you push your own beliefs rather than cover both sides?
Meanwhile here in illinois my vote will always be for nothing, we're blue all the way through either which way i vote
And to think I moved from growing up there to the god awful state of Talibama.
No. Republican Trifecta is most likely
This would be a good video for a channel called TLDR News US.
You guys suck at US politics.
tl;dr house maybe. pres maybe. Senate: LOL NOPE
The aim of this video is to see "if either party will win a trifecta." How come the title of the video mentioned the Democrats? #Biased
how is it biased??
Keep crying lol
Your mouth would be shut if he did the same for Trump. #Biased
Go out and Vote! Get two plus people to vote! Remind friends and families to vote! Let your followers on Social media know!
Get people to register! Show love with Kindness!
Short answer? No
Long answer? Hell no!!!!
Long answer is that its possible, but possible in the same way that winning the lottery is possible. Its so unlikely that it may aswell be impossible, but regardless there is still a very small chance
@@tuxtitan780 Yeah.. the odds look very bad already. She's slipping in the polls even 2-3 weeks before the election day so it's a very low chance she gets the presidency. And the upcoming congress vote heavily favors the Republicans.
All in all, voters are putting their concern for the economy on top.
@quanghungtran3581 i honestly think it's more likely than not that the house goes blue. The senate is almost certainly going red. And while Harris has slipped in the polls, I'm not going to make any calls myself yet. The polls keep going back and forth. It seems like for a couple weeks, Trump will gain ground, and the next couple Harris will.
I think that at the moment, Trump probably does have the advantage and is more likely to win despite the national polling still being in favor of Harris, but it's not a slam dunk either way.
Regardless, it's going to be damn near impossible for the democrats to get a trifecta. The Republicans at least have a more than one in a billion chance to, but imo it's more likely than not that neither will.
They might flip the house, it is extremely unlikly they will keep the senate, Presidency is a toss-up.
@@quanghungtran3581according to the poll average even Nevada goes for Trump.
It's still not too late to swap Biden back in.
Please
Living in Arkansas for 28 years like, y’all can switch who you elect 😅
