A lot better numbers in comparison to 2020.

I did semi-confidently predict Biden’s victory. But it wasn’t just due to his lack of rally attendance.

His message(s) started darkening later in the campaign.

Sounds like a spoiled little boy—but what he’s threatening is violence and chaos. He would burn it all down and take us all with it.
