Right now my odds are Kamala 60%, Trump 40%.

But I expect that to change in a few months.

Where do you get those odds? 

According to bookies it's actually the other way around, Trump is a 60 % favorite to win the

election: https://www.oddschecker.com/politics/us-politics

But you also some years ago said that Trump has no chance of becoming president, correct?

Circumstances have changed.

I update my odds based on new events.

If you truly believe those are the odds, then you should bet a good amount of money on Kamilla, you would be printing money.

I don't gamble.

I get much better odds investing.

My point was, that the odds that you came up with are exactly reverse opposite of what the bookies are giving.

So if you truly believe what you are saying, it should be a very +EV bet for you.

In general, I would not argue with the bookies, the vast majority of the times they are proven to be correct. Follow the money as the old saying goes.

The point is people pull out odds out of their ass but usually don't bother to put their money where their mouth is

Do you really think I put a bookie's intelligence above my own?

Lol

I didn't do all this work to listen to some depraved bookie.

What makes you think that in this field you have higher intelligence and higher competence? 

What makes you think that you always know best?

Your condescending attitude towards others (ex: depraved bookie), and the amount of arrogance/ego that you display is surprising to see, given that you been doing this "work" for so long.

The more you do this work, the less authority you give to others and the more you realize the foolishness of others. If you think that there are others above you from spending years doing this work, then you wasted many years climbing up a guru’s ass.

I have reached states of consciousness that most people around me haven’t achieved. I haven’t reached the highest, but from my work so far, I see the many traps and foolishness of spiritual authority. I see right through those Buddhist Bats.

One of the insights one should have is realizing that all the answers to the Universe are within. Consciousness is the answer. Nobody can write about enlightenment which makes it pointless to read books about it because consciousness is direct and reading is hearsay.

We are not talking about spirituality here. We are talking about politics and the probability of a certain candidate winning. Are you sure that you are posting in the right sub?

If this "work" that you do, does not make you more humble and makes you think that you know better than everyone else in every field - then you are doing the wrong kind "work".

There is a clear difference between giving authority to others and being a total delusional, full of ego, arrogance and thinking that you know best.

If you do the right "work" for long enough, you will see the amount of ego tripping majority of so called "gurus", including Leo do. 

Pride goes before the fall - remember this.

Because I have a deeper understanding of politics and human nature than nearly anyone on this planet.

I cannot believe what I read, I had to read this 5 times.

What makes you think that you have better understanding of politics than almost everyone on the planet? Politics is not even your main domain.

The problem is that you don't actually hold yourself accountable, and just brush off being wrong with circumstances changing.

People who are actually wise and conscious, don't usually make such statements. In the past you claimed to be the most conscious human on the planet and that you reached the highest levels, and now this?

If you are serious and truly believe this - then you have to be delusional.  

How do you not see the problem with such statements?

I'm not saying his statement is correct, but one wouldn't be able to put this together with just minimal knowledge on the matter. I'm not defending either; just pointing something out.

These events were years or even decades in the making, not occuring in a vaccum.

You should have seen those events coming, for someone who claims to know everything. 

Predicting that Trump would never become president is not understanding human nature.

There is nothing more human than to elect Trump. It even more American to elect Trump. Trump is the perfect American president, which is why he is going to get elected twice.

The cursed & dreaded statement.

"Circumstances have changed"

You could justify literally anything by making this statement. Literally anything. Circumstances will always keep changing.

Just because one is able to produce videos like this, does not mean that they have deeper understanding than almost everyone on the planet.

I am not denying that he has a lot of knowledge and intelligence - but as a rule of thumb, the wisest people never claim that they are the wisest.

It's incredible that majority of his followers are not able to see the absurdity of such statements.

Whomever you're supporting and I mean whomever, I'm sure have made absurd statements also at some time in their life. Did you even watch any of these videos. I've seen them all. There are no rules of thumb; only what we as humans have created. Rules are meant to be broken. Being confident in your capabilities doesn't make one absurd in thinking they are the best in something. Humility can sometimes be false humility and the opposite may be the case. 

I'm not saying his statement is correct, but Leo has been known to be a little extreme and to me he is like an "all in or nothing kind of guy". If you understand this about him, you'd understand why he would make such statements. Again, I'm not saying he's correct or not correct in his statement because idk, but it's not absurdity to think that, in this case, if you have the confidence behind you to back it up.

I have called Leo out on things that I don't agree with him on in the past, so it's not like I'm some blind follower who just agrees with him on every subject.
