This is the real problem with Presidential elections. Before Trump, I always thought it would be best to have one term, six year President. Now? FML. Thank God we may only have four years.

67% of people disapproval of trumps handling of COVID should be a massive red alert to republicans.

It won’t be but it fucking should.

SCHUMER: "The American ideal of equal justice under the law is once again being undermined by a lawless president who regards the Justice Department as his personal plaything. By refusing to hold Trump accountable, the Republican Party bears responsibility for his lawlessness."

They will blame it on the Governors and democrats and say Obama had similar approval ratings during his presidency.

Here is what the Lincoln project says it's about: https://www.kcrw.com/news/shows/press-p ... derate-gop

There's another group out there called vote vets that is making some noise too. Don't know much about them, but they have a scathing ad about these bounties.


And there's just Don's words, and he was in Florida yesterday he said that many people don't know that Abraham Lincoln was a Republican until he tells them. It's just amazing how stupid he thinks we are, and conversely how smart he believes he is.

Can trump rile up his base enough before November to get the amount of turnout necessary to win him the election? Are there enough MAGA supporters out there to make it possible? Will he become even more divisive in the months to come?

If Biden wins AND the Dems take the Senate, I'm very afraid about the amount of Republican violence that will occur.
