Trump could still win

It's always dangerous to start predicting the defeat of Donald Trump. So much of the current momentum to the November election is going Kamala Harris's way, including polling figures in key states, that it seems almost inevitable that she will win and Trump will lose. Again. But, despite there being less than two months to go, it's a long time in terms of presidential election campaigning. Things could go wrong for Kamala. Things could go right for Trump. Next week's big TV debate, probably the only one they will have, could be a show stopper, with Trump giving a commanding performance and Kamala struggling between her smiles. Or, she could dominate and Trump could bumble his way through. But Kamala, being the new, fresh nominee for the Democratic party, will have to keep her wits about her if her current momentum is to be maintained. Trump is still sounding confident and has been talking about the importance of picking the right people for his administration. He obviously believes he is going to win although the polls say otherwise. But with all the felony trials facing him being pushed into the background, he can concentrate on making bold claims and promises which, whether credible or not, might persuade an undecided voter to go for him rather than risk the relatively unknown Kamala Harris.
