If Kamala Harris gains power, we will see the a far Left leadership that will drive a wedge deep into the heart of the country. The USA will not survive a Harris presidency.
Many people feel the same about a Trump presidency and the same sense of urgency to vote him out of office.

Most people don't like Trump because of his personality. They don't have many real arguments against him based on policy.

He has not gotten us into more wars and has reduced our presence in foreign countries. This is something that the Left constantly pushes for except for when a Republican does it.

The economy started booming under Trump and Democratic mayors have even endorsed him because of this.

My issue with Trump is that he hasn't lived up to the promises that he made when he first ran. He has actually been very moderate as President and the Left still hates him.

Refreshing to hear a Democrat use the proper term which I underlined.

But I think both Moore and Maher have a better sense of things than the DNC. If they want to win the election, they need to distance themselves from the woke left and BLM, and make a real play for the center and independents. But after a summer of violent riots, the damage might already be done.
It would take guts, which they lack.

I don't like his policies, especially his child separation policies and his environmental policies. He has not given everybody better and cheaper healthcare like he promised. He has not caused NK to denuclearize. Our relationship with China is as bad or worse that it's ever been. Our allies don't trust us or laugh at us. He foments hatred and is not happier than when he can cause strife and division. He's a bully who castigates everyone who dares disagree with him. He basically just runs roughshod over the entire country including the other two branches of government and they let him do it. He's extremely immature and not fit for the office. He doesn't even want to read his press briefings or know what is going on with the country except if it benefits him. He has made millions on his properties since becoming president. He is a national disgrace. All you have to do is google to see the thousands of lies he has told. As my mother used to say, he will lie when the truth will do. That's enough for me to want him out of office. My feeling is that he'll be re-elected, but I'm hoping enough people feel like I do and will vote accordingly.

And when is Trump going to address the concerns of ordinary people? He's had the last 3 1/2 years to do that!

Hell, a Republican Senate committee said so. A couple weeks ago.

Last time, Moscow Mitch never said it wasn't happening. He just said if Obama told it, Mitch would consider it election interference by Obama.

Trump will claim "Corruption" and fake/Fraud nonsense but Biden is going to win by such a landslide, Chump wont have a leg to stand on. He had four years, he FAILED in every measure. People just need to accept it and move on and hope Biden can turns some things around

You read somewhere? Such a completely ridiculous statement, which if true would be non stop headline news, and you can’t even remember where you “read” it? Care to do some research and name your source?
