If Kamala Harris loses to Trump, will it be more or less embarrassing than Hill-dawg's loss? Probably has to be worse, right?

no. Hillary faceplanting was embarrassing because of how unexpected it was; it's understood that Kamala very well may lose, there's just no way it can be embarrassing to the same degree.
I say worse absolutely. Trump is at like 10% power. He is a dry dry boy these days

How the fuck are there still undecided voters, you'd think everyone at this point would have already cemented their opinions but it seems like there's just a good third of the USA running purely on vibes.
I'm somewhere between "I'm worried Donald Trump will come for my hormones and force me to destransition" and "I want to see the democrats destroyed"
I'm wondering if polling companies are quietly bundling "none of the above" with "undecided".
I mean if you're the average American voter and your only care is "will I benefit more economically under Trump or Harris" the answer isn't immediately obvious. Anyone who's a single issue voter on Palestine doesn't have a super straightforward choice either, although I imagine most of them will vote third party or not at all.
There are no undecided voters there are just liars and lonely people who think surveys count as human interaction.

Exactly, I don't really think there are a lot of people who are undecided. People aren't voting on individual issues anymore, there are two competing narratives regarding what the future of US should look like, and people either subscribe to one or the other. Anybody who is going to vote for Harris was already going to vote democrats regardless of who the candidate is because they think the republicans are destroying the country, and vice versa.

Cool democracy when like 7% of the total population of the entire country determines the outcome of federal elections.

I don't believe the American people are good enough to reject genocide, but I'm willing to be proven wrong.
Oh, and how is Nate Silver still around? I thought the humiliation of 2016 should have made him crawl under a rock to hide forever
