“This is someone who's not very comfortable, as you wouldn't be, talking about transgender issues, is not going to be an easy thing to do.

Wipe out trans issues or something.”

Hello Team

🎦 00:00-01:43

Jonathan welcomes viewers to another ATP Geopolitics video. He explains that this video will cover a US election update, specifically a Trump-Harris showdown. Jonathan shares his biases, stating that his support leans towards the Democrat side due to his views on foreign policy and the Russia-Ukraine war.

US Election Polling Data

🎦 01:43-05:41

Jonathan discusses a study by Tom Bonier, the CEO of TargetSmart, which analyses US voter registration data. The analysis, which began on July 21st, reveals a significant surge in voter registration among young Black women (175% increase) and young Latinas (150%) compared to four years ago. Tom Bonier states that he has never witnessed such a significant change in voter registration. Jonathan argues that these numbers highlight the Democrats’ success in motivating their base and suggests a potential hard ceiling for Trump's support at around 46%. He believes that Trump needs to appeal to swing voters and independents to win the election and concludes that the data points towards a positive outcome for the Democratic ticket. He also mentions that historically, those who register to vote closer to election day have a higher voter turnout rate.
