It would only make him a martyr to his followers. But prosecuting him to the full extent of the law is something I'm open to.

Ideal is that everything criminal about him come out, financial and personal, his school grades, tax returns etc. Also what the Russians have on him. The also criminal GOP senate will exonarate him as usual, but hopefully not the courts.
Nothing would be more satisfying than him being first subjected to shame and ridicule (which he fears the most), then jail time. His delusional base will stay with him, but the whole sane world will despise and laugh at him.
Then jail time for Ivanka and Jared, Moscow Mitch, the WH staff and Barr.

Of course the article and the people interviewed don't really acknowledge the inherent racism and bigotry and hypocrisy of their position. They see themselves as victims who just want to hang onto their "way of life" while the big bad people in the cities just don't understand them.


If they could, some of them would still be hanging some of us Black and Brown people.



Christians supporting evil, par for the course for religion.

This is the least bloodthirsty, most rational and optimistic take and I hope it comes to pass.

All these ads need to be in heavy rotation on TV. Social Media only is only going to get so far shared amongst like minded people.

Ads will be on TV. But they are targeting many other forms of media as well because of the different ways people get content now. They are spending $220 million on TV and $60 million on digital.

And not just CNN and MSNBC. In fact, advertise on those channels least. Because most of the people who watch them are already gonna vote against Trump. But hit up major sporting events and primetime network TV.

That article said in addition to targeting states they will run national ads on sporting events and new broadcasts.

The current ads they are running though are focusing on swing states so you California folks wouldn’t see them anyway. It says

Biden in mid-July began running advertisements in Florida, Arizona, North Carolina and Texas focusing on the coronavirus pandemic and lambasting Trump's response to it.

I want Trump out of office as much as the most people here, but I think Dem better have a campaign rally other than the mis-handling of the coronavirus. Trump campaign can easily brush that aside as a once in a generational kind of pandemic, that no past president had even faced. They can also claim talk is just talk, making actual decisions that affect the entire nation is entirely different. I know most of you including me will just LOL @ this prediction, but the trump base and those closet Trump supporters will totally eat this up and give him a pass on the pandemic.

Anther thing that may work agains Biden is the leakage of China is behind Biden. Most Americans certainly will pick Russia as the lesser evil between Russia and China. Just my own opinion.

College football is about to be cancelled. The NFL probably follows suit.

Meanwhile look at just about every other country in the world. Many of those countries have presidents. They faced it successfully. Trump failed miserably.

This isn't hard.

Understood, but I was referring to the swing voters, the claim I aforementioned could be enough to sway them his way again in 2020.

Have you been paying attention the last 3.5+ years to ALL the issues the Dems have brought up? Hardly a day goes by when Trump doesn't break a law, rule, norm, or tradition, AND each time it is duly noted by the Democrats.

The Democrats could have a campaign rally and continuously (as with a filibuster) bring up all that Trump has done, but the catering and sheltering costs would be prohibitive.

Here is something that will undoubtedly sicken any of you who are not Republicans.

Sickening! Surveillance video shows brutal CS lowlife attack of 72-year-old man in Kent

Republicans have simply become an angry cult of conspiracy theorists. If it wasn't for conspiracy ideas, they'd have no ideas at all.

Too bad Michael Bloomberg has not kicked in the money he said he would to help the Democratic candidate get elected, even if it was not him. He could pay for a lot of Biden and DNC ads on the networks if he honored his pledge.

There's plenty of time.

But if he spent that kind of money on voter registration efforts, that would be even more effective.

Trump talking about Wall St. I When he's questioned I hope he's asked about things important. He said the election will be rigged because of mail in voting.

Understood, but I was referring to the swing voters, the claim I aforementioned could be enough to sway them his way again in 2020.

We're also in a recession that most other countries have managed to avoid during the pandemic. There are unemployed swing voters facing eviction right now. The Democratic Party passed legislation to address those issues over two months ago and Mitch McConnell and Trump have done nothing. Biden can run on fixing the economy he and Obama helped build back up in 2009, which Trump has somehow destroyed in only 3.5 years.

If you mean "what's Biden and the Democratic Party's platform," then it's easy to look up online and Democratic Party politicians are pushing a message that is much more than just anti-Trump. They have been throughout his presidency.

Let me ask you as if you're a hypothetical swing voter: what is Trump running on that might appeal to you?
