    1. Maybe they just don’t want to admit they’re racist yet. The Cult45ers are a bunch of racist, IGNORANT people. Admitting you vote for Donnie Dic, you also admit your a a bigot. Some people deny being one but deep inside they are. Maybe that’s why their still undecided. I wouldn’t doubt it.

    2. Don’t forget the hustle. Most of this is a all song and dance. All of this foolishness is based on “The great Greek Tragedy”. Make sure you get the facts about how this works.

  1. Biden/Harris 2020, not to vote is not an option. That changes nothing! VOTE; VOTE; VOTE this bully out of office.

    1. @Ellen Peba Its like living in the past the 40’s- 50’s.thats when communism was seen as a threat with McCarthyism and build up of cold war and anti reds.Trump, his Moscow hotel been built their yet. Putin has threatened your democracy as invited by Trump so he gets re-elected.No one should be afraid of communism. I am not. I do understand that Trump somehow in his speeches inflames certain susceptible people to think they are threatened e.g their rights,their suburbs,guns,jobs,language,women folk,extinction. Its a studied phenomena. I meet a lot of Americans when travelling in communist countries.I met lots of Americans,working,travelling and living in China last year. Met them in Cuba.Trump visits all these countries and does business with them.Not on behalf of Americans just for himself. Art of the deal.

    2. @Judy Telles Are you an atheist? I’ve been “inflamed” about Communism since I was old enough to buckle my own shoes–has NOTHING to do with Trump, and everything to do with my 2 grandmas, both of whom taught my siblings and me the dangers and evils of Communism. Personally, judy, I couldn’t care less what you’re “not afraid of”. YOU are not an American–see?

    3. @Ellen Peba Why be inflamed by it ,it is a regime that will never be adopted by America and your grandparents worried unnecessarily about it with the Hoover witch hunt.You are the one who said Trump is a communist slayer now you say it has nothing to do with Trump.Anyway communism is being readapted in those countries who followed this type of government. So you dont have your own mind to re-evaluate what your grandparents told you was evil and dangerous many,many years ago,I would say pre internet.Times and knowledge hasnt changed you. I am glad I am not an American, there are billions of us who are not Americans.

  2. *”Undecided” voters seem to lack the sense to be able to find their own butt with both hands and a flashlight.*

    1. They seem to be the first ones asking for a hand out. I mean how much work does it take to see that performance and draw what should an easy conclusion.

    2. omi god. To be fair, they can’t see… because they stuck the flashlight up their a** like Trump told them too and now think they are immune to Covid.

  3. How can people be undecided at this point in time when you can clearly see that democracy and the constitution of the USA is being flagrantly undermined

    1. Undecided voters basically are not too bright. There is a saying “If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.” And they do. Voting back and forth between parties is insane and stupid. The platforms of the two parties are the exact opposite in almost everything. We have seen now what happens when Trump undid every good thing Obama did or wanted to do. Instead of moving forward, the country has regressed once more.

    2. Far too many Americans grew up learning the sanitized, happy version of US History (maybe all of once in 4th grade) and went through life figuring it can’t possibly get *that* ugly. Sadly.

    1. @Gordon Rebel Exactly. The Bernie Bros sat at home and sulked. I, to, was disappointed (both times) when Bernie didn’t get the nod, but I held my nose and voted anyway and will do so again. You can’t always get what you want and have to often compromise. It’s called being an adult.

    1. Don’t forget the hustle. Most of this is a all song and dance. All of this foolishness is based on “The great Greek Tragedy”. Make sure you get the facts about how this works.

    2. Joe proved you don’t have to be a bully to get a point thru… trump just showed how loud he can be. Doesnt take any intelligence to do that or insult someones dead son. What a pos trump is

    1. Thats exactly what it sounds like and trying to pick anything VP Biden said to make it a wash in their minds!!!

  4. Undecided, huh?
    There should be no such thing at this point. Seems to me they just looking for attention.

  5. I uh…I’m genuinely confused how they’re undecided. Especially with the introduction want of these people “we want calm. We’re in a storm” so uhm…..do you think keeping the guy who’s been making the storm in office is good?

    I sincerely don’t understand. Please. Explain to us how they can be undecided in a time like this.

  6. You got that right Willie, and because of people like that is why we are living this nightmare and if they are undecided at this stage of the game they need help

    1. Yes, it is the “undecided” vote that got us into this mess. The platforms of the two parties are like day and night, and you cant’ keep on voting between them because you undo all the progress that the Dems are making, hindering the country to finally move forward and catch up with other industrialized wealthy nations.
      As a German American who moved back home, I can tell you that the quality of life in the US for the average person is not half as good as for example, the quality of life in a country like Germany, Sweden, Norway, etc. etc. is. Because my family unfortunately lives in the US I feel badly for the 50 percent of Americans who vote for the Dems and who struggle as a result of the Republican majority calling the shots.

  7. LOL, they’re afraid that Biden is “Extreme”?…They aren’t “Undecided Voters” they’re “UNINFORMED Voters”…

  8. Please vote in huge numbers so we don’t have to waste time with these people ever again. Democracy is on the line and a pandemic hangs over us, and these people are like “I JuSt DoNt KnOw WhO tO vOtE fOr.”

  9. If I didn’t know any better, I would think that these undecided voters are having a hard time deciding who to vote for on “Dancing With the Stars, or “America’s Got Talent.” Some of them have said they need to see another debate, as if they need to see them sing or dance again before casting their votes. Do these people realize that this is not a game?

    1. I can just imagine these low information voters’ reasoning: “I’m undecided; for shear entertainment value alone, Honey Boo Boo was way better than that Presidential debate.”

  10. When one side is an actual, literal fascist, being undecided is the same as voting for the fascist. Unbelievable morons.

  11. “shut up, and “clown”, was mild considering what tdump has spewed for the past few years. Biden was pushed by tdump, because he could not get a word in.
