[RamonCruz-tt]

Latino here for Trump! Don’t even pretend we are offended. We are offended by your lying!

[lexinichols]

I’m just frightened by catastrophic consequences that her presidency would have and a political and economical equilibrium she is one of the most incompetent politicians I have ever seen … she’s a clown 🤡

[TomZart]

THE WORLD IS WATCHING OUR VOTE OF CHOICE =2024??
America, the abundant, the place I was born
I'll cherish till the day I die.
Where the bones of past heroes lie buried in the ground
Who loved her the same as I.

Her mountains are so tall they reach for the sky
With prairies where the green grasses grow.
There's billions of trees where wild birds nest
With creatures that flourish below.

That blue gold called water with which we are blessed
As raindrops or crystallized snow
Changes to rivers and fresh water lakes
While the winds of our seasons blow.

Some cities have buildings a hundred stories tall
Structures of concrete, glass and steel.
A statue in a harbor, a present from France
Describes how inside, we feel.

That flag on the moon with red and white stripes
Proves America’s dreams come true.
A country of heroes who line up to protect
The past, the present and few.

Now’s not the time to fight one another
Or kiss our enemy’s cheek.
All through history it remains the same
The strong enslave the weak.

May God continue to bless America
Refusing evil the upper hand.
It’s up to us to stay resolute
Defending the liberty of Man.

Politicians who wish to be praised by history
Must earn their fame by living the truth.
Any who continue to mislead and deceive
Must be shunned by the voter at the booth.

Rhode Islander for Trump. Plus 2 women in my family and my brother. We are sick of democrats leaving us behind

[sew_gal]

Democrat here, voting, 🟥 the first time in PA. Peace out! Let's go!

[tripicus]

Early voting is the only thing that (literally) counts at this moment. Republicans show up on election days. Democrats traditionally do not perform as well. Very worried.

[YohannesMadeIT]

Democrats whole race has been Trump did this and that, but not about what Harris will do for the people over the next 4 years……

[dizzy_jump]

why did you "accidentally" leak the poll results for pennsylvania

[FullTekAuto]

I can’t wait for the concession speech.

Let’s Walz right into that shall we?

[Bookworm-yd]

i still remember when hillary was up 21 over DT in 2016 by this time

[Thomas-seht]

Democrats like me are voting for Trump. We can't afford another 4 years of Kamala's inflation.

[gizmo]

Trump 24' Harris has done nothing !

[DoogieBop]

Love to see all these Trump supporting comments on ABC lol, they will be replaced with Kamala supporter comments soon enough

[bloun]

Diane is official. I wish she was running.
🤭

[AlH-iv]

[LiftingGunsBibleTradition]

*VOTE TRUMP* ✌️🗳️
KamalaBiden failed us last 4 years!

[x-men-]

Red wave in PA. That guy is a comedian. It’s just a joke. It’s not from Trump. You don’t need to make a deal or be woke about it.

[pervezmahtab]

While everyone is freaking out on the turnout trends of the Party registered voters in early voting, no one is actually taking into consideration the following key assumptions that can significantly impact the final outcome of the 2024 election: (1) higher no of the Independent voters (NPA’s) will be voting for VP Harris; (2) a significant chunk of the Republican registered female voters will be voting for VP Harris to protect their reproductive rights; (3) many of the registered (non-MAGA) Republican voters with traditional conservative values (i.e. ‘Haley voters for Harris’, etc.) will be voting for VP Harris to protect democracy and the Democratic process (on account of J6, Trump’s fascist and dictatorial rhetorics, et.); (4) large no of Gen Z voters this year will be be voting for VP Harris as her liberal policies resonates with them; and (5) the Latino community will be tipped over to the VP Harris camp after the latest string of racist insults hurled at Haitians, Puerto Ricans, Hispanics, etc!!!

These factors will be the game changer in this election cycle!

Think about it !
