Nigel Farage makes his final bombshell prediction in crunch US election

predicted that Donald Trump will win the US presidential election as Americans take to the polls.

The Reform leader said the Republican, who is a friend of his, is "feeling bullish" in the run-off with Democrat Kamala Harris.

The Clacton MP told GB News: "I'm in Florida now, I was in Pennsylvania yesterday and last night and I came back this morning, went to a couple of polling stations at seven o'clock on the outskirts of Scranton, which, of course, is where Joe Biden comes from.

"I would say this, that in Pennsylvania, an absolutely key swing state, 19 Electoral College votes, which matter a lot, Trump won it narrowly in 2016, Biden won it in 2020. It's seen as the absolute pivotal state of all.

"One thing that was said to me by people, we were there on the very middle class, detached houses, sort of small town America type area, was that there were a lot more Trump signs on lawns than there were in 2020 or 2016 which kind of means people are less afraid to show their support for Trump.

"I just think with all the reports I'm getting at the moment of really big turnouts happening, especially in the rural parts of America, on this course he's going to win and win quite comfortably."

Mr Farage met Mr Trump backstage at a rally in Pennsylvania last night.

The arch-Brexiteer said: "We chatted about the polls, we chatted about the early voting, about a third of the votes for the whole election were in by yesterday and had been counted or estimated already.

"For somebody of 78 years old who was doing four big rallies yesterday, who's been working at a pace that's almost unbelievable, he just looked remarkably well, very relaxed indeed, the guy is a physical phenomenon.

"He's feeling good, he's feeling bullish. He believes he's going to win."

The 2024 presidential election between Mr Trump and Ms Harris is one of the closest races in US history, and on Tuesday millions of Americans headed to their local polling station to cast their votes.
