You can't really compare Reagan and Trump. Say what you will about his politics, when it came to campaigning and looking presidential, Reagan was the champ. With the economy doing the way it is, Trump should be on track for a 1984 style blow-out. He isn't/speedy2 said:
The Republican party will not win Virginia for another 40 years unless it's a landslide.rcs1000 said:
There are only really two realistic pick up chances for the Republicans this time around: Virginia and Nevada. (Unless Sanders is the nominee, of course, in which case New Hampshire and a whole bunch of other states come into play.)Mysticrose said:
Yeah but Reagan had a lot of domestic problems going into 1980. Trump's in a stronger position. And never mind 'net approval.' It's all about polling against your opponent, where Trump will win hands down.rcs1000 said:
https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/?ex_cid=rrpromoMysticrose said:
As I keep saying, Trump is a shoo-in.MarqueeMark said:
I can't remember a more dead cert re-election except perhaps Ronald Reagan although Reagan was in more trouble than Trump at this stage.
Reagan net approval at this point +17
Trump net approval -9
Unemployment is rising in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan. All states Trump won by small margins.
That being said, I think the Libertarian candidate (oh please be John McAfee) will do much less well this time around, which probably adds two percentage points to Trump's share.
Weeks before the election, Reagan trailed Carter in most polls. In the Gallup poll on October 26, Jimmy Carter was at 47 percent and Ronald Reagan at 39 percent.
Trump's going to win bigger in the Electoral College than last time.
Indeed, I could well imagine a situation where the Democrat and Republican vote shares are reversed, but the Democrats end up with more EC votes than in 2016.
And unless they lead the party registration vote in Nevada they won't win there either.
There is no realistic pickup for Republicans on a close vote.
New Hampshire is becoming a suburb of Boston.
Minnessota is a refugee dumping groung for decades.
Maybe Delaware and Maine in like 8 years.
I know Sanders is from Brooklyn but he's been in Vermont a long time. He should have a natural advantage is all of New England.0 -

I disagree, even though I would like to think that you are right. This is a totemic issue. It's almost as though he's saying that he's reflected on the lessons of the immediate open borders policy to EU accession countries championed by Barbara Roche in 2004 and is shouting from the rooftops that the only lesson is that the UK should do exactly the same again.SouthamObserver said:
I doubt it will make much difference to anything. Johnson has proved you can say one thing one year and something comletely different the next and it doesn't matter, if the zeitgeist is with you. Come 2024 Brexit will either have been a success or failure. That is what will matter.Wulfrun_Phil said:
That's a huge long term mistake from Starmer. Not in terms of becoming Labour leader, but in terms of his chances of eventually becoming PM. Just a month ago he was emphasising the need for Labour to move on from Brexit, which showed some tactical maturity.HYUFD said:
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/keir-starmer-urges-labour-move-21218461
Now this speech effectively contradicts that and will be thrown back in his face. The Tories will love it if they can make the 2024 GE about whether or not the UK once again allows unrestricted migration from the EU.
It won't do Starmer any harm in the Labour leadership contest itself. However, the irony is that he's already so far ahead in the contest that he needs to be focused beyond that.
Even if in years to come he attempts some backsliding, he'll then run the risk of (a) no-one believing that he means the backsliding on migration whilst (b) developing a more generalised reputation as a slippery character, such that he isn't believed on other stuff either. Worst of both worlds really.
Anyway, Starmer's opponents are already using it ruthlessly to define him e.g.

People said there would be about 100 people in Parliament Square. There are thousands. This is big. Of course it is big.
It means we, as a democracy, managed to do what France, Ireland, Holland etc etc failed to do,: we fought off the EU Establishment, and the people were heard, and the referendum was honoured, and the people won. This is enormous. This is globally significant.
Fuck tariffs and VAT ad whatever. This is another incredible achievement for an ancient democracy. THE global democracy.

You’d think the Leavers in Parliament Square would be all happy and in celebratory mood.
Sadly some there can’t just stop the hate and bile. Parading around with lock up the traitors banners!

It's a phoney comparison with 1945. Then the nation was united against a foreign foe. Even the little princesses snuck out of BP to join the merry throng, if rumour is correct. Today the true comparison is with 1649: a narrow victory in a long internecine conflict that most people didn't want in the first place. It led directly to one of the worse decades in English history, at the end of which the insurgents came out with their hands up, begging for mercy (which some of them didn't receive).0

It's also like the civil wars (plural) of the seventeenth century due to three different disputes going on in England, Scotiand and Ireland, with different motivations but feeding off each other.Alphabet_Soup said:It's a phoney comparison with 1945. Then the nation was united against a foreign foe. Even the little princesses snuck out of BP to join the merry throng, if rumour is correct. Today the true comparison is with 1649: a narrow victory in a long internecine conflict that most people didn't want in the first place. It led directly to one of the worse decades in English history, at the end of which the insurgents came out with their hands up, begging for mercy (which some of them didn't receive).

No, but I don't know of any manufacturer of smartphones that varies their connectors by the regional market. That's one thing that remains constant on a model of smartphone. Even when things like frequency bands, Wi-Fi, NFC, memory configurations, or the software changes, the connectors remain the same.IshmaelZ said:

I think it's a bad idea, if would be absurd if Apple, who have been major proponents and developers of connectors like USB in its first iteration, Firewire, Thunderbolt, Lightning, and the USB Type-C connector were obliged to stick with a connector.0 -
