The critical, first step of betting on a US election is to calculate the electoral college targets. Trump's path to victory is narrow and narrowing further due to events in Georgia. https://t.co/ALwqK0SwnT

Senior elections analyst Nathaniel Rakich breaks down the long list of criteria the 2024 GOP presidential candidates must meet in order to qualify for the first Republican debate.

I get loyalty to a tribe in a very divisive political arena, but the sheer weight of issues the man has, on top of the epic selfish ego that drives it all, you would hope would eventually crash it all down.
Just hold on, Joe.
Does this actually stop him running though?
I think he'd run himself on the ballot from jail, if he could.
It is essential that Trump does not stand in 2024 and anything to help that happen is welcome
I have not been posting much recently and notice it was a rather unpleasant on here last night with @Leon leaving and some seemingly pleased he left
Unless someone breaches the rules of posting on this site, then expressing pleasure that someone you may not agree with has left is rather unnecessary
On representation at the the Women's Final in Australia on Sunday, the question should be asked who would go if it was the Men's team for the first World final since 1966, and in my opinion it is inconceivable the King and the PM would avoid going

Just another pathetic attempt by republicans to have a whinge at the royals when they would also whinge at the emissions and travel costs if he went to Australia for this one match
I'm a monarchist. I'm not saying it's a dereliction of duty for him not to go, but it seems an appropriate choice, and would be positive PR on brand for modern sensibilities to be even more supportive in attendance ofo the women's team.
DeSantis is busted and I'm not sure I see the attraction of Vivek Ramaswamy to his base either, to be honest; he gives me strong Rubio vibes.
But maybe I'm not trying hard enough.
It's inconceivable that Queen Elizabeth wouldn't have sent someone.
Even the richest of the rich don’t fly private from London to Sydney; it’s way nicer to be in a private 1st class suite on a big plane, than spend 24h in a small one.
Possible he could martyr himself but he couldn't hold rallies. Probably couldn't tweet as much etc.
Not sure effect it'd have.
This is the final of the women's World Cup that should count as if it were the Men playing in their first final since 1966 unless you are being misogynistic, and Qatar has nothing to do with it
It is a World Cup Final and it discredits Charles and William if one of them does not attend
Can you even name the GG without googling?
He's not going to be in jail come November 2024 though, even if they convict him before then, appeals and whatnot, but a fascinating possibility.
They don't necessarily have a majority to get rid of it but it's a bit divisive and polarising, so they'd be met with protests and it'd risk stirring the pot a bit too.
Of course that is no longterm solution but that seems to be where Oz is at right now.
Drag Charlotte along to entertain the photographers too.
Debs was in a Federal prison.
If Trump is convicted in Georgia, he would be a state felon, and as a felon he would be disfranchised.
If he is disfranchised in his state of residence - which he would be, as it would then become Georgia - would he *then* be eligible to run?
I imagine the Supreme Criminals, ooops, Court would say yes, but I can see it being arguable.
So either he's the official candidate and conceivably might win or he's not and he runs anyway, and definitely loses, and then blames conspiracies and cheats for that loss instead.
Although in my defence, I did then realise it wasn't an Andrea Leadsome moment.
Don't overegg the pudding.
There shouldn’t be a bank holiday for any England or British team winning an international tournament- the players get their lifetime satisfaction by winning the pinnacle of their chosen sport, they likely make more money through increased sponsorship, the fans get their joy from their team winning. That’s all it should be.
I know self employed electricians, I know of people on ZHCs who don’t get paid when a team wins and the resulting bank holiday. It’s great for those in gov or media to demand it but then they don’t give a crap that it’s another day that the economy pays a price.
It’s a football final. Great. Every seat in a stadium should be fans not VIPs who don’t give a monkey’s in reality. He would be better off setting up a big screen in Kensington palace gardens and inviting a load of kids from London to watch it with him.
The party would probably rename itself the Trumpite Party in his honour and declare him the eternal candidate.
Not at this time of year though.
To anyone who doubts what the Ukranians think of the Brits at the moment… 🇬🇧 🇺🇦
People who backed him are going to feel so silly in a year's time.
If this had been the men's World Cup they'd have gone. I think this is what they are paid for. I am neutral on the monarchy yes/no question, veering very slightly no, but if they like being monarchs I also think they are missing a serious trick. And I am very, very pro the bigging up of cis womens' sport just at the moment. We need the nation to take this team to their hearts so that people will see the ludicrous nonsense of some 3rd division no hoper deciding that he is really Ethel and has been all along and being permitted to play against, or compete for a place on the team with, the lovely Alessia.
Biden 81 million votes
Trump 74 million votes
Fair play to him, he stood in leadership elections for both parties in 2019.
I'm kinda surprised that Charles hasn't done a Commonwealth Realms tour tbh.
Are you not concerned that this outrageous man attempted a coup on January 6th 2021?
The country will never forget this insult to the Lionesses.
(Cue HYUFD threatening to send the tanks in even if Scotland supports independence by 99% to 1%, whilst claiming to support democracy.)

I’m just being a grinch because I used to enjoy the today programme until it got turned into the Radio 5 live three hours of women’s sport you MUST be excited about interspersed with some bollocks music item.
And to say it again, it would be better if Willandkate had organised a big screen with lots of diverse children to watch the match in some royal gardens in London.
I confess to very unpleasantly responding: Cheerio. I have a feeling Leon can handle such insults.
There isn't enough popcorn in the world for this. It's like the Keystone Kops, but with a frisson of danger from nuclear weapons.
*though all the evidence presented so far seems that it was Republicans doing the fraud.
Either way, he'll be back. He loves the attention.

I didn't receive anything as part of the initial signup process, or when hitting the 'resend confirmation' button (and, yes, I checked the 'spam' folder). This was with a bog standard personal gmail account; I eventually signed up again with a freshly-created Yahoo email, which worked fine (hurray!).
I realise that ensuring email deliverability is increasingly a ballache, especially to gmail - but might it perhaps be worth adding an "if you don't receive this, please retry with a different email provider"-type note to the confirmation resend page, @rcs1000 ?
