All I see is very biased opinion piece from the same magazine that named Yaser Arafat it's Man of the year!


Also.

Good to hear.

Trump is getting HAMMERED right now among white women in America: 66% Biden, 31% Trump.

First, everybody knows that Trump is far from perfect. Everyone thinks that Twitter should be taken from him. He is his own worse enemy.

But if they are "looking for new leadership", that won't be Biden. 50+ years in Washington politics and a record of basically doing nothing.

Just going by what I see here in Suffolk County, I expect the vote for Trump to be even larger than it was in 2016. You may be angry with Trump, but many many people are angry at the entire Democratic Party.
" Everyone thinks" Her we go AGAIN, someone claiming to know what "Everyone thinks" You didn't ask me.

Hit, they aren't that smart.

We're half Hispanic and middle class---and we're not about to be "abandoning Trump".
In my community I see over a DOZEN of Trump flags and signs and only 2 for biden, and we are white middle class.

Yes, polls follow similar trends.

On August 12th of 2016, Hillary was up by 6.3% nationwide and leading in PA, WI and MI.

Hillary was a sure win - up by 6.3% and leading in all the toss-up states.

Don't forget Nazis. We're also Nazis. And Trump is Hitler.

Although I might have missed one, I have seen no evidence of political signage anywhere in my neighborhood. Nonetheless, voter turnout for this area has historically been extremely high, and I don’t expect that will change.
