"Pennsylvania is switching back and forth between light blue and light red"

The state of Pennsylvania has been one of the pivotal swing states that will ultimately define the election results, as the election is neck-to-neck.

00:00represent. I'm just looking at the screen here to pivot back from this important lesson on history

00:09and immigration. Pennsylvania, almost 50 percent of the votes now recorded. It truly is neck and

00:16neck. It truly is. It's been switching back and forth from a light red to a light blue, and it's

00:22coming from here and there because it's right 49.9, 49.2. It goes up. It goes down. It's really

00:30there. That's where Jameer is. We might have to bring Jameer back on at 3 a.m., so tell him not

00:36to fall asleep. Jameer may cast the deciding vote from this battleground state of Pennsylvania. The

00:42experts are saying that it could come down to Pennsylvania. In 2000, it came down to Florida.

00:48In 2020, it was Georgia. It was Arizona, so it's going to be a late night. Make sure you have your

00:57cachapas. Make sure you have your tea. Make sure you have your papelón, just citing some of the

01:03yummy Venezuelan foods that are going to help me get through this night. Yeah, Danny, we have a long

01:10way to go until the trends are steady and until we have something similar to an outcome of this

01:19election, but also we are not just chasing the numbers here. We are not just doing the math. We

01:25are not just adding up. We are seeing from a southern, global south perspective, we are seeing

01:32this election rolls out and which ones are the social, the economic, the historical, the political

01:40landscapes and intersections, as we have been saying, that come to play a big role in the

01:45decisions that the American people are taking tonight. So, Belén? Well, I was thinking how

01:54we're talking about the numbers. We're talking about trying to really analyze what is going on.

01:59What are the big topics that have driven these campaigns, that have driven U.S. citizens to

02:05either vote for these candidates, vote for an alternative party, or decide not to cast their

02:11votes in this democratic system that is the system of the United States, with all its things that it

02:17has. So, we were talking about migration just a moment ago, and it's really the talk about

02:25migration, the talk about the possibilities of the Latino vote, for example. In the case of Trump,

02:33it has put him in a particular spot, if we consider both his rhetoric, his anti-migrant

02:42rhetoric on the one hand, and then his need to appeal to some of these voters on key states,

02:49like the ones we were just saying, like Pennsylvania, for example. So, there's a back

02:54and forth there. What do you think about this vote? Because it's a neck-to-neck election,

03:02many are saying that it will come back to the same minority populations that the Trump rhetoric

03:10has been targeting. What do you think about this? If we look at the entire political panorama, the

03:19biggest issues for the American people, both from conservative polling and liberal polling, are

03:25the quote-unquote state of the democracy, that's more of a liberal issue. Immigration is huge,

03:30the issue of abortion, then I'm drawing a blank on the fourth of the economy, the economy of course,

03:37and that's why they've both tried to position themselves as somehow in solidarity with blue

03:42collar America. I mean, Kamala Harris is not a billionaire, she's worth in the range with

03:48her Zionist husband of about five million dollars. Nothing to scoff at from the perspective of most

03:55of us who try to get by on $40,000 or $50,000 in that range. Salaries, so many of us still

04:03continue to live below the poverty line. I think it's important, Belen, how you pointed out the

04:09hypocrisy, the political opportunism. Trump, one minute, is insulting immigrants and scapegoating

04:15immigrants and then he pivots around and he bows down before them and says, please vote for me,

04:20I love the Saudis. He's a professional actor. I mean, what a shame that so many of us fall

04:27for his professional acting skills. These are not human beings that could

04:32in any way feel real life compassion towards us.
