29. Take a disadvantage (Trump putting a bat shit crazy conservative) and turn
Fri Sep 25, 2020, 06:16 PM
Sep 2020

it into an advantage. The last leg of the race becomes all about everything that the Republicans want to take away from the people.

It you vote for the you should have no right to vote.

They put babies into cages.

Trump knew how bad Coronavirus and yet he let your Grandmother, Father, Sister, Child, Doctor, Teacher and so on die. Knowing how bad Coronavirus was he lied on a daily basis to the American people. How many people died due to his negligence?

They want to kill the ACA which includes pre-existing conditions. Coronavirus, which has impacted over 7.0 million people is a pre-existing condition. Who among your family might be denied insurance when the Republicans kill the ACA?

Trump called the military losers and suckers. He trashes Gold Star Families. Told Russia has bounties on the lives of our military - he does nothing.

Russia meddles in our elections. Not only does he do nothing but he accepts their help in 2020.

Trump cites violence on a regular basis.

Trump has turned the top lawyer of the land, the AG, into his personal lawyer.

Trump is under more criminal and civil investigations then any other President.

Trump picture is next to the definition of nepotism in the dictionary. There is no job that he will not give to a member of his family.

Republican Senators refuse to consider a Obama SC nominee months before the 2016 election but have no problem pushing a Trump nominee less than 40 days before an election people are already voting in. Why - needs a SC in his pocket to throw the election to him when he loses. That is why he wants his nominee, not because he/she would have Conservative values.

Women's Rights, Civil Rights, Voting Rights, medical insurance are all on the chopping block because Trump and the Republicans in the Senate do not care about the common people.

Security - Saudi Arabia's MBS claims to have Kushner in his back pocket. What role did Kushner play in the assignation of Kashoggi? What is Trump talking about when he meets with his master, Putin?

What is the hold that Putin has on Trump and so many Republicans? Did Russia buy off McConnell by putting a $200 million plant in Kentucky?

Trump consistently installs people with conflicts of interests in agencies for the purpose of tearing down said agencies. Look at the Post Office for example.

Republicans in the Senate have sat there and done minimal work while the House passed hundreds of bills that gather dust on McConnell's desk.

Republicans passed a massive giveaway to millionaires and billionaires and do virtually nothing to help the masses. They don't care that you can't pay your rent, put food on your table, pay your utility bills, and so on. They act like the pittance they handed out initially would encourage to not work.

Look at so many of the corporations and how they handle bailouts. They use them to buy back stock and pay bonuses instead of dealing with the crisis and preparing for the next one. When the next one comes they have to be bailed out again. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different results.

The message that Democrats need to pound incessantly is - Vote like the lives of you, your family, and future generations depend on it because it does.

If think shows/books like The Handmaid's Tale might never happen here? Are you really sure?

When you hear Trump talking about getting rid of ballots so there won't be a transition there will be a continuation do you really think that we cannot have our version of Mussolini or Hitler in our Country?
.

Democrats need to have one faction putting the fear of God into the American People while Biden and Harris can talk about what the future could be with Democrats taking back the WH and the Senate and picking up more seats in the House. This is a battle for the Soul of this Country.
