62. I genuinely think this is going to be a very, very big wave.

I keep seeing on the news that the "gap between Trump & Kamala is narrowing." It has happened VERY quickly. I think we have bigger momentum than we even realize. I supported Joe 150% but always did like Kamala. I live in San Francisco and was here when she was District Attorney.

The fact that young people are supporting Kamala is not surprising. Repigs have NOTHING to offer today's youth. I cannot think of one single reason a young person would vote for a repig unless they were brainwashed by religion.

I think we will soon see Kamala pull ahead, but I DO know it will still be a close election, and I will not rest easy until Cheeto is defeated.
