Former President Donald Trump will become the 47th president of the United States, with all major newsoutlets calling the race in his favor as of Wednesday morning. Trump is poised for a sweep of all seven swing states ? Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin ? and holds a 51%?47.5% lead in the popular vote with a large percentage of the vote in West Coast states still to be reported.

Trump appears likely to surpass his performance in the 2016 election, when he won 306 Electoral College votes but lost the popular vote by roughly 2%. He is also on track to flip every swing state President Joe Biden won in 2020. In a victory speech at 2:30am ET on Wednesday morning, Trump declared that his return to the White House will usher in a ?golden age of America.?

A couple weeks ago, I made my final predictions about the 2024 election. 

In that post, one of my headline predictions was that Vice President Kamala Harris would win Pennsylvania but lose the election. I also argued that Trump had a path to winning in Michigan, that Democrats would win the House, and that Republicans would come away with 53 seats in the Senate.

Since then, the race hasn?t fundamentally changed, but it has developed in a lot of interesting ways. I?ve been jotting down notes over the last few weeks and today, I?m emptying my notebook as we head into the final days of the race.

So: Here are 25 thoughts with four days to go until Election Day.

On Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a speech at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., that was billed as the closing argument of her campaign. Harris delivered the speech at the same site as former President Donald Trump?s address to his supporters on January 6, 2021, which preceded their march to the U.S. Capitol. Harris?s campaign chair, Jen O'Malley Dillon, said the location of the address was meant to ?crystallize the choice in this election? for voters.

On Friday, The Washington Post announced it would not endorse a presidential candidate in this year's election and would continue to forgo presidential endorsements in the future. Will Lewis, the paper's publisher, announced the decision in a column that described the non-endorsement as a return to the paper's pre-1970s tradition.

A week out from Election Day, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump are neck and neck in the critical battleground state. Harris held a moderate polling lead over Trump in Michigan after she replaced President Joe Biden on the Democratic ticket, but FiveThirtyEight?s polling average now has her leading by just 0.4 points. Harris?s struggles are due in part to declining support among Arab American voters in Michigan, who have been critical of the Biden administration?s handling of the war in Gaza.

In the past two weeks, former President Donald Trump has made repeated references to ?the enemy within? the United States, suggesting he would use the military to put down unrest caused by the left, sparking controversy as the presidential race nears its conclusion. Those remarks, in turn, have prompted former high-level members of his administration to speak out against his candidacy and question his fitness for office.

On November 5, in addition to presidential, House, state and local elections, voters will be casting ballots in 34 Senate elections in 33 different states. Currently, a coalition of 47 Democrats and four independent senators holds a 51-49 advantage over Republicans in Congress?s upper chamber. This year, Republicans are only defending 11 of the 33 Senate seats up for election and are likely to hold all 11. Two of the 23 Democratic seats up for election ? in West Virginia and Montana ? are rated solid Republican and lean Republican, respectively, by Cook Political Report.

Last Wednesday, Hurricane Milton made landfall in Florida as a Category 3 storm, knocking out power to 3.2 million people and killing at least eight. Two weeks earlier, Hurricane Helene ravaged the Southeast, killing more than 250 people and resulting in widespread devastation. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which coordinates the federal response to disasters that exceed the capabilities of local and state authorities, has become the target of criticism for its response to these storms ? particularly from conservative commentators ? pertaining to how it allocates resources, its responsiveness, and its funding.

In Tangle fashion, we?ll give a neutral overview of the measure and what advocates and opponents are saying about it.

We?ll let you decide what arguments sound the strongest to you.

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Garland v. VanDerStok, a case challenging a 2022 Biden administration rule that regulated unserialized firearms, also known as ?ghost guns.? A group of firearms owners, gun rights groups and manufacturers challenged the rule, arguing that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) exceeded its authority in issuing the regulation. During arguments, a majority of justices on the court seemed skeptical of the plaintiffs? case, indicating that they would uphold the rule when they issue their decision in summer 2025.

On Saturday, the tech executive joined former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of the attempted assassination of Trump in July. Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX and the owner of X (formerly Twitter), addressed the rally?s attendees and reaffirmed his support for Trump?s candidacy while criticizing Democrats on a range of issues. Broadly, the speech exemplified Musk?s evolution from a political moderate to an outspoken advocate for the former president.

On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan unsealed special counsel Jack Smith?s latest filing in United States v. Donald Trump, concerning alleged criminal actions committed by the former president following his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. In the filing, Smith argues that Trump "resorted to crimes" to remain in power and was acting outside the scope of his official duties as president when he pressured state officials and then-Vice President Mike Pence to overturn his 2020 election loss.

The dockworkers? strike. On Tuesday, thousands of longshoremen and port operators along the East Coast and Gulf Coast went on strike after their union, the International Longshoremen?s Association (ILA), failed to reach an agreement with the United States Maritime Alliance (USMX) on a new contract. The ILA, which represents over 45,000 workers, is asking for higher wages for its members and protections against port automation projects. The strike is the first large-scale work stoppage for dockworkers in nearly 50 years and has halted nearly all activity at some of the busiest ports in the United States.

The short and sweet: We are now (finally) offering ad-free podcasts if you subscribe to our premium podcast channel. You can sign up at tanglemedia.supercast.com to start enjoying an ad-free listening experience.

The longer story: For the last few years, our daily podcast has been ad-supported. In that time, we?ve gotten complaints from our listeners saying they find these ads annoying and would happily pay a subscription to get ad-free podcasts.

Today, we are finally making that happen.

Before today's daily podcast comes out, Isaac wanted to tell you about a few of the reasons we are doing this, why we need your help, and how your subscription will make this podcast and future productions possible.

To celebrate this launch, for this week only, you can subscribe to our premium ad-free podcast channel for up to 20% off. Once you subscribe, you?ll get instructions on how to add the premium version of the podcast to your feed, and then every time we publish a podcast you'll have an ad-free version in your feed (plus, you'll get premium, paywalled podcast content).

A few other notes:

In the near future, we are going to start paywalling our Sunday podcast (where I chop it up with Ari Weitzman, our managing editor, about all the news we missed) and interviews, to make sure we are offering ample premium content to podcast subscribers.We are going to produce additional listener mailbag editions as part of the subscribers-only offering.We are going to start recording podcast versions of the Friday newsletters as well, which is another thing people have been asking for.

Most of all: Thank you. For years, our podcast was able to exist because so many of people subscribed to our newsletter to support our work. Now, our podcast audience has turned into its own separate entity. You've asked for this and we are thrilled to bring you this offering. Now, lets all take it to the next level.

Again, go to tanglemedia.supercast.com to sign up for our premium ad-free podcasts.

We are, as always, immensely grateful.

Happy listening.

Best,

Isaac & the Tangle team

The vice presidential debate. On Tuesday evening, vice presidential candidates Ohio Sen. JD Vance (R) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) faced off in the only scheduled vice presidential debate of the 2024 election. The debate provided a stark contrast to the recent presidential debates, with the two candidates delivering fleshed out policy positions, repeatedly finding common ground, offering respectful disagreements, rarely interrupting each other, and avoiding personal attacks.

White House officials said Biden remains opposed to the deal but is reportedly concerned about the economic and political ramifications of doing so.

The second Trump assassination attempt. On Sunday, former President Donald Trump was targeted in what the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has deemed an assassination attempt at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida. Trump was not harmed, and police arrested the suspected gunman shortly after he fled the scene. The incident comes two months after Trump survived an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

We covered the attempted assassination in July and the ensuing fallout within the Secret Service here.

In Wednesday?s presidential debate, former President Donald Trump claimed that migrants in Springfield, Ohio, were eating residents? pets, framing the alleged acts as symptomatic of the broader migrant crisis in the United States. The comment, which Springfield officials have said is false, set off a discussion about the implications of heightened levels of migration to towns like Springfield and a debate over the veracity of Trump?s claims.

The first Harris-Trump debate. On Tuesday evening, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump faced off for their first debate at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, PA. It was the second presidential debate of the 2024 campaign, but the first one since Harris replaced President Joe Biden as the Democratic Party?s presidential nominee. It was also the first face-to-face meeting of any kind between the two (when they came on stage, Harris walked over to Trump, shook his hand and introduced herself).

On August 6, Ukrainian troops entered Kursk, a Russian region north of Ukraine. Four weeks later, Ukraine still maintains a ground presence in Kursk as well as control of about 500 square miles and 100 settlements.
