Ryan Bridge: Donald Trump will win the US Presidential Election

Of course, Donald Trump is going to win the US election, of course he is.

I've been saying that since July on this programme, not that anyone will listen to me.

He would have also whipped Biden like a bottle of cream.

Too many Americans are hurting with the cost of living, and that's all the motivation you need really to get out and vote, isn't it?

Republicans are doing it early in record numbers, which they don't normally do, including in the swing states.

In Georgia, half of the 8 million eligible voters there went early, which is astonishing.

They also included 700,000 people who never voted in 2020.

Now, why would they be voting this time around?

You could say it might be the fact it's a, you know, a female or woman of colour that they're wanting to elect, but the polls show the more likely motivation is financial.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Of course Donald Trump is going to win the US election.
Of course he is. I've been saying that since July
on this program, not that anyone will listen to me.
He would have also, by the way, would have whipped
Biden like a bottle of cream. Too many Americans are
hurting with the cost of living, and that's all the
motivation you need really to get out and vote, isn't it.
Republicans are doing it early in record numbers, which they

(00:20):
don't normally do, including in the swing states. In Georgia,
half of the eight million eligible voters there went early,
which is astonishing. They also included seven hundred thousand people
who never voted in twenty twenty. Now, why would they
be voting this time around? You could say it might
be the fact it's a female, a woman of color,

(00:40):
that they wanted to elect, but the polls show the
more likely motivation is financial. You feel poor, pissed off,
and you vote the current lot out, be it Biden
or Harris. Plus, Harris hasn't helped herself swearing black and
blue that Biden nomics is working when people know in
their pockets that it's not blindly defending Biden's mental state

(01:01):
despite everyone thinking he's gone do Lali and it's sort
of reminiscent actually that of just Cindra A Durn. Remember
here she refused to call the cost of living crisis
a crisis, despite the fact it's like the toughest economic
period in a generation. It enrages people when you do that,
and calling Trump a Nazi or a fascist isn't going

(01:21):
to stop him, because people don't vote for Trump because
he's a saint. Do they Add to that the fact
that the markets are pricing in a Trump victory, the
fact he always does better on election day than in
the polls because his voters don't like polsters, and that
while he's not ahead in the popular vote, his polling
now is higher at the stage of the campaign than

(01:42):
when he won in twenty sixteen. Add those things together
you have a pretty strong case. I think that Donald
Trump is going to take back the White House this week.
