Could WH2024 be a re-run of Biden v Trump – politicalbetting.com
in an interview with CNN the 20212 Republican nominee, Mitt Romney, said that if Trump wanted to run again in 2024 he was sure that he would get the nomination. I think that this is right and that’s how the betting markets see it.

I think it is highly likely to be honest.
The Trump nightmare rolls on...
Hopefully there will be enough court cases to keep Trump busy. But so far, he seems far from being rendered irrelevant as many might have hoped. As some warned.
Only the subsequent data made it clear what was happening in Kent.
Hindsight is so 2020, can we move into 2021 now?
An election with 2 four years older!
Great!
Ps. The chances of both being alive and in decent enough health to do the job come 2028 must be minimal.
Why is Sturgeon planning to go back to regional Levels?
If Trump expects to win then it would suggest a good performance by the GOP in the 2022 midterms.
So what would the Dems do in the event of a bad performance in the 2022 midterms ?
Trump is a LOSER! SAD!
One may be er, unengaged by then.
One may be in prison.
If it is Biden v Trump in 2024, the US will have wrested the mantle of "Wold's Most Sclerotic" from the cold, dead hands of the EU.
No.
Which is why he won't run.

Eeesh. They really are teflon.

The magic money forest must be starting to look rather short on trees these days.
Maybe there is an element of doubt creeping in to their cocksureness? Could they be carrying the scintilla of doubt that they might actually have micro-todgers after all?
I thought we had gone past the stage of ever having home umpires. I thought they all had to be neutral?
Will include talk of 'review' of corporation tax, capital gains tax and pensions tax regime. No change for 2021/2022.
At this stage I have absolutely no idea how I will vote in May.
But the SNP's ineptitude over this doesn't dissuade me from the general principle of Scottish independence any more than the general ineptitude of the May government would have dissuaded Brexit voters from that.
Never mind the 'housing market', what about help for the country - in the form of more houses?
We have a depressing national addiction to rising house prices.
I’ll settle for house price stagnation. Negative equity is terrifying though.
No, it will not be a re-run. Trump will be in prison.
I wouldn't hold your breath.
A growing economy and business confidence will do for me...
And so must pay my reverence to these men -
These grand old men, who still can see and talk,
Who sacrifice each other's sons each day.
O lord! Let me be ninety yet, I pray.
Methuselah was quite a youngster when he died.
Now, vainly weeping, we should say:
'Another great man perished in his prime'.
O let me govern, Lord, at ninety-nine !!!

Actually in fairness local government typically hates central government for forcing them to approve housing, which all their locals want them to refuse.
She also claims some Brexiters are consumed with hatred for Germany and gripped by a myth that they liberated Europe on their own, describing Brexit as a triumph of emotion over reason, won by a campaign full of lies in which negative attitudes to migration were exploited by figures such as Johnson and Michael Gove.
Bermann, who served as the French ambassador to the UK from 2014 to 2017 and has been one of the most senior diplomats in the French diplomatic service, including as ambassador to China and to Russia, assesses the British handling of the Covid pandemic as among the worst in the world alongside that of Donald Trump and Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil. She predicts Johnson will seek to use Covid to mask the true economic cost of Brexit on the UK economy.
Johnson, she says, comes from an Eton and Oxford University class that believes they are entitled to use language to provoke. Describing him as intelligent and charming, she says he uses “lies to embellish reality, as a game and as instrument of power. The ends justify the means. He has no rules.”
As you (implicitly I think) point out when you've got a house all you really want is no hassle remortgaging.
Both teams have been given an extra review to make up for that. Which doesn't mean much when the reviews themselves are being rushed by biased home umpires.
Especially if you come from a country potentially going into its third wave....
At some point the government has to tackle the crazy issue of billions in housing benefit being paid to subsidise buy-to-let landlords. What the solution is beyond building more homes is beyond me.
I agree it's too early for conclusions but we've done very badly to date.
The trend is fairly clear, was neck and neck and now Tories probably have a small lead due to vaccine roll out, but it is only currently a slim one. But Starmer's own ratings have gone down recently.
Oh.

Did they not breathize him?
As an SNP member since 1974, we have been through schisms, but nothing like this! What the Scottish Parliament has been lacking is a competent opposition. Unless the unionist parties have some alternative policies apart from “No to Indyref2”, it’s not going to change. Too many career politicians and civil servants that are more interested in their salaries and pensions than in serving the public. Mind you, it was also bad during the Lab/Lib years. There just wasn’t social media to highlight it. The media are part of the incestuous relationship. Most are unionist. I think they have been giving Sturgeon an easy time because she isn’t seen as a threat to the union. Only now are they having to get involved, otherwise they will be shown up by the UK media.
It’s all very depressing. It will be even more depressing when the pubs are open, except in Scotland, and hospitality is officially open, but we’re not allowed to travel outside our local authority area, which was the case last time we were in tier 3. It’s not easy being governed by a control freak. 😢
I mean, she talks about the UK being alongside the USA and Brazil, who are at 1557 and 1171 respectively, so why she doesn't say she assesses the British handling as among the worst in the world alongside Trump, Bolsanaro and Macron I don't know. Or rather I do know.
The referencing of Trump and Bolsonaro, even though Brazil's stats are presently better than France if she wants to do a shapshot now, indicates it to be a classic case of 'I don't like politician X, so will compare them to policitian Y who people also do not like, even if it undermines my point'.
I agree with plenty of what she says there, but we've all heard those points made before, so I can't see it stunning people.
When the complaints came in what was she supposed to do? 'Nothing to do with me gov.. I've worked with him for 30 years and he's as pure as the driven snow' would would not have worked. It would have been and looked like a cover up
The alternative was to tell the complainants how to register their complaints. That was the option she chose and if you think about it there was no other option available.
'A woman more sinned against than sinning' and becoming more impressive by the day.
One of the best things about Brexit is I don't have to give a shit what the likes of a French ex-ambassador thinks of us anymore.
Let's wait for the final excess deaths data, in a year or so, (when it is, God willing, finally over); only then will we be able to say who was the worst of the worst.
In GDP terms I accept the UK will suffer more than most.
Incidentally, this French ambassador is deluded if she thinks "hatred of Germany" consumes Brexiteers.
I know a lot of Brexiteers, not one of them is Germanophobic in this way. If anything they tend to envy German economic success and stability, and want Britain to be similar. They will express criticism of Germany, but they do the same to every European country. Any "hatred" is reserved for the eurocrats in Brussels.
They ARE righteously proud of Britain's role in defeating German Fascism, but that is a different matter entirely.
Build more homes, grow the population by less.
I'm pretty sure that Trump actually believes he did win in 2020, and that the election was stolen from him. It's almost necessary for the preservation of his self-image to run again.
Best bits were the burnup of the Lambo in the intro, and the outtakes.
I might try Smokey and the Bandit next.
Roger, dear, it's all a bit more complex and murky than this.
Trump thinks he'll win, and thinks he did win, because he thinks he is preternaturally gifted and that everyone else sees it too.
Just like a textbook narcissistic personality disorder sufferer.
I've been on social media a lot today, and I am surprised at the vitriol and aggression within and between the various Nat factions. It is not a happy party. Near-open warfare.
Strange for a party which is utterly ascendant in the polls. And perhaps that is the reason. They have no one else to fight so they fight each other.
Plenty, including many Conservative supporters, have urged the ending of the triple lock.
Not a sausage. Maybe it isn't really interested in controlling welfare, but is interested in controlling the client vote?
They've been rendered outmoded by technology.

That being said I am in favour of removing the Triple Lock and uplifting pensions by CPI only which is the case for private (final and career average) pensions.
So this idea that it's a Tory bung to the 'client vote' is a load of baloney.
