Fair enough. Could be. I still think most will vote against Trump because they blame him for tbeir own terrible situation and he happens to be president, which is one of the worst reasons to vote for Biden but it's still good enough for me. Either way, I'll take them all so hopefully we're both right and everyone comes out.

President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

LOLLLLLLLL.

How many cheap bullshyt shots has Trump taken against Obama? Obama did nothing but tell the truth, and these f'n trolls attack him for it - as if they had any moral grounds at all to do so. They don't. They know full well that everything's changed with Trump. He's taken away any reason to treat him with the dignity that other Presidents have earned - 1,000 times over.

Trump has never cracked 50% approval rating. You know how **** of a President you have to be to not ever crack 50% your entire term? And it isn’t all partisans because there aren’t enough Democrats to carry that 50-55% disapprove. Meanwhile Obama has 63% approval rating in retrospect and I believe 95% approval rating within the Democratic Party. Obama or Biden would have wiped the floor with Trump in 2016. Trump amplified the hate on Hillary and just completely lied about her so called corruption to drive down turnout (with help from Russia).

He’s using the same tactic this year because he knows that he can’t win if voting numbers are equal. Watch carefully, he’s making it a referendum on Obama to turn up his base, but because his base cannot carry a majority he’s going to lie cheat and steal to depress Democratic turnout. That’s the whole game.

Iran Contra anyone? I told y’all that Trump is the worst qualities of every single modern President rolled into one fat sack hamburger eating piece of trash. I honestly don’t know how Americans managed to elect literally the worst person for the job.

After Trump is finally gone, there will need to be a slew of "Trump" laws introduced to ensure that this level of criminality can never happen again.

They really take us for morons. Pompeo refused to be interviewed then claimed
he didn't know he was being investigated when he asked Trump to fire the IG.

For the DAILY "This all by itself should be enough to convince everyone that Trump is not fit to be President": https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-says-fox-news-isnt-the-same-and-hes-looking-for-a-new-outlet-after-host-warns-against-his-medical-advice/ar-BB14ibAU?li=BBnb7Kz

Trump said yesterday he has been taking hydroxychloroquine for around one and a half weeks. He said his evidence for its efficacy was that he received "a lot of positive calls about it."


The VA study, cited by Cavuto, looked at 368 male patients nationwide, some treated with hydroxychloroquine alone, some with the drug in combination with other treatments, and some not exposed to it.

It concluded: "An association of increased overall mortality was identified in patients treated with hydroxychloroquine alone."

Researchers said it found "no evidence that use of hydroxychloroquine, either with or without azithromycin, reduced the risk of mechanical ventilation in patients hospitalized with COVID-19."

So Trump & allies claim that Rice's e-mail was evidence to claim the Obama administration illegally spied on his campaign was utter bullshyt.
Some of those claims were not particularly subtle. “JOE BIDEN IS GUILTY,” read the subject line of a recent Trump campaign fundraising email.

How in the f is this garbage our President?

One of the best rants I've seen in a while. He should work for an anti-Trump group or something.
