    1. S EE It got SO BAD after RNC with these crackpots and calling us the K K K. A bunch of MAGAs ganged up on me online and demanded I “release all the slaves from Democrat plantations” or they will do it. I told those freedom fighters to make sure to confiscate all the Confederate flags from those Southern Dixiecrats too, while they liberate their plantations, and wished them good luck 😂 told them to bring lots of guns, cause Confederate “Democrats” don’t take none too kindly with anyone messing with their traitor flags 😂😂😂 Here’s a parody song of RNC: https://youtu.be/09Nan-uARF4

    2. @Ellie *DNC are Republicans-in-Drag* Bernie signed onto to the DNC both times by choice. He’s not as miserable as you think. He’s been accepted into the club!! Look how happy he is!!

    3. @Thomas Johnson You’re half right, Sanders’ polices are moronic, but so are Trump’s. I would never vote for either of those lying, populist demagogues.

    1. @Anita Bruton Hack like you can watch Biden talk in circles during a debate and still think he mopped the floor with whomever he was debating. That’s because hacks like you are as delusional as Dementia Joe.

    2. @todd studley lmao Trump “person woman man camera tv” ” I wanted to downplay the virus”- Donald J Trump

  1. Don’t let the GOP and trump steal this election. Biden needs to engage Latino voters.

    Please don’t assume anything. Safely get out the vote! OVERWHELMING BLUE. Young, Elderly, Brown, Black, White fellow citizens. You can check your voting status at: vote.org We cannot let the GOP limit our right to vote. They use gerrymandering, voter roll “cleansing” and Trump threatens to question mail-in voting and vote results. Folks are turning away from this corrupt party. But we must exercise our right to vote in order to protect

    1. @J Flow keep on laughing because you’ll be sobbing November 3rd because history repeats itself and this exact thing happened in 2016.

    2. The Only Ones Trying To Steal The Election Is The IDIOTS On The Left…There Is No Need For All These Mail In Ballets Unless You Intend To Cheat…PROVEN.

    3. @kingtut777 TRUMPI the BUNKER – BOY win only with DADDY PUTIN HELP IN 2016 WAKE UP BOY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    4. @Ron Kek TRUMPI don`t can do this Job in the White House he is too stupid look the Chaos in USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. Ralph Boyd Glad to hear about Florida! But you’re wrong about millenials. 1) Trump has a sway even with moderate Republican millenials. His base is uneducated and vote against their own interests 2) Biden won’t get any liberal millenials if he sticks to his promise to INCREASE police funding, ostensibly for “reform,” but in actuality, for votes. We didn’t protest for six months for this. George Floyd didn’t die just so Biden would be inspired to give police more money. Let the police vote for Biden. After all, he’s paying them.

    1. Democrats have always been all talk and no action…they never get anything done. DO NOTHING DEMOCRATS

    1. Suomy Nona, I have my issues with Cuomo, but he was confronted with the worst outbreak in the world. Trump’s European “ban” was initiated with three days notice which caused airports to have travelers arriving from Europe crowded for hours without masks distancing testing or quarantine. Combine that with a transit system that moves more people in one day than live in most states, you have the perfect Petri dish for pandemic. Cuomo was forced to deal with a shortage of masks equipment PPE and supplies. He had no treatments, or information, his only method of dealing with the virus was shelter in place orders and distancing guidelines. Once masks became available to the general public the numbers dropped precipitously,and have remained the lowest per capita in the country. Cuomo did with New York what Trump hasn’t been able to do with the country, despite the fact that New York has provided the blueprint, and the treatments have improved.

    2. @John DiGiacomo I don’t think TRUMP has the blood of all the old folks that died in nursing homes in NY I think that honor goes to your hero The Elder Assassin Andrew Chomo

    3. Trump’s European ban was so poorly organized that thousands of travelers arriving were stuck in airports for hours without masks distancing testing or quarantine.. The law requiring nursing home residents to be returned to the homes after hospital treatment predated the pandemic, once the problem was discovered it was corrected.Trump’s incompetence caused millions of travelers into the country, and crowding the airports exacerbated the situation.

    1. J
      Sure and you are a dog just want to listen to Trump and ready to bite anyone touching Trump.
      Remember dogs can eat Sh.t and Trump like to feed them with something like that.

    1. 12345 678 if he knew one was coming had been briefed on how severe it could be and then chose to tell the people it’s not a real earthquake it’s a democratic hoax stay in your homes you’ll be fine and people died because of those lies then YES 100%

  2. Sanders is smart, nailed it, the Biden ads I’ve seen aren’t exciting or informative, he needs to be out there more

    1. Biden is barely being active at all. How could you win an election without energy or effort. He is depending more on the media and campaign ads. Sanders is a much better candidate than Biden

    1. *VOTE**#BLUE**!* 4 keys to stop Trump & Putin from rigging our votes:

      1. Check your voter registration status NOW.

      County clerks in Republican districts across the country fraudulently purge voter rolls of legitimate Democrat voters prior to each election. In the 2014 mid-term election, I arrived at my local polling station only to discover I was no longer registered to vote, even though I had been a resident of my county and living at the same address for seven years. I was forced to cast a “provisional ballot,” which I suspect was not counted in the final vote tally. Since then, I have always verified my voter registration status well ahead of upcoming elections to ensure I have time to re-register in case of any Republican shenanigans.

      2. Vote early.

      In Republican states, there will no doubt be attempts to suppress voter turnout in Democratic districts by limiting the number of polling stations and reducing polling hours. This will likely be under the guise of protecting voters and polling workers from Covid-19 exposure.

      Laws no doubt vary by state. In Texas, voters must vote at their designated polling location on Election Day. However, during the early voting period, voters can vote at any open polling location in their county of residence. This makes it more difficult for Republicans to target Democratic districts for poll closures and restricted hours. Find the early voting laws for your state, and vote as early as possible. This will point you in the right direction: https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/early-voting-in-state-elections.aspx

      3. Use no-excuse absentee voting in states where it is available.

      “No excuse absentee voting” means you can request an absentee ballot from your state or county election official for any reason. Currently, 29 states offer no excuse absentee voting, including the most important swing states: Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin. If your state is on this list, request an absentee ballot and mail it no later than October 20th to ensure it is received and counted: https://www.ncsl.org/research/elections-and-campaigns/vopp-table-1-states-with-no-excuse-absentee-voting.aspx

      Mail in ballots can be dropped off at your local election board in most cases, or authorized ballot boxes at various locations in your state. That will lighten the burden on the Post Office that Trump has kneecapped.

      To New Yorkers: New York State has Republican districts. Due to COVID-19, the legislature recently passed several bills to make it easier to request an absentee ballot. The date was moved up so you can request one today. You can use COVID-19 as a reason.

      4. Do NOT waste your vote.

      Yes, my fellow Americans, I am also frustrated by the two-party system, and I understand the appeal of underdog third-party candidates. You must realize, however, that a vote for a third-party candidate is effectively a vote for Trump. Don’t believe me? Just look at the numbers. Two states, Florida and Wisconsin, tipped the Electoral College for Trump in 2016. Trump won Florida by 113,000 votes and Wisconsin by a mere 23,000 votes. The top two third-party candidates, Gary Johnson and Dr. Jill Stein, captured 271,000 combined votes in Florida and 137,000 combined votes in Wisconsin. According to exit polls, the overwhelming majority of these votes were from disenfranchised Liberal voters who refused to vote for Hillary Clinton. Joe Biden is not my preferred candidate (“Bernie/Warren 2020” was my dream ticket). Nevertheless, *we must be united in taking back our country* and make America thrive again. *VOTE **#BLUE**!* If you’re not sidin’ with Biden then you’re rootin’ for Putin! Please share this message as often as possible from now to Election Day. Say “NO” to another four years of fascism.

      Flush the turd on November the 3rd! 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊💩

  3. Everyone repeat after me: *HEALTHCARE IS A YYYUMAN RIGHT!!!* Look, we need to stop comparing Bernie to God. He’s great and everything, but he’s no Bernie Sanders.

    1. The enthusiasm to vote among younger people for Biden has risen from 14 points to 20. That could be because they see Biden maintaining a steady lead over Trump, unlike Hillary whose numbers were sliding closer to election day in 2016.
