The momentum built up by Harris in just a month
has increased the odds of a blue sweep of the White House and Congress,
something that looked improbable until recently,
according to the Goldman Sachs investment bank.
Yet, prediction markets are still betting narrowly that Harris will win the White House,
with Democrats taking the House and Republicans taking the Senate, the analysts wrote.

Minnesota governor, Tim Walz, started it.
He’s been calling Donald Trump and his asinine associates “weird” for months now,
but the insult only got traction after he used the term on two separate interviews with MSNBC last week.
“These are weird people on the other side,” Walz said.
“They want to take books away; they want to be in your exam room. That’s what it comes down to.
Don’t go sugarcoating this
