    1. @Ms Linda Yeah, but i mean, at least the republicans dont fire you from your job cause you politically disagree with them lol.

    2. @Richard G That’s because the Republicans have a ton of cash. What matters is how people vote. A guy in my neighborhood who had a large Trump flag in his yard, suddenly took it down!

    3. Alan Hirschenhofer II why you think someone like Biden can lead? He can only lead to danger ! He has no skills what’s so ever also he has really bad plan that go against freedom and prosperity and the American way of life . What do you like about this person?? Why you feel he can be trusted ?did you know that antifa.com direct their url to joebiden.com ? Did you research even his tax plan ? Do you even have a clue how his plan going to make everyone you know completely broke ??? Do your research, You may find this link useful Alex you must watch what that socialist creep wants to grab every american’s money and property. He ain’t get his way.

    4. Jesusisking 777 Biden is not going to be good for any American trust me, he will destroy America as you and I and everyone else in this country knows already. His plan isn’t good news and actually honestly extremely dangerous to the ann m Eric an way of life . Do some research, plus he is not a bright guy . He can’t lead anything nor himself.

  1. Guys this is not about the election, it’s all about he not going to prison for all the illegal stuff he did before and during this presidency!!!!!
    Vote Joe Biden 2020

    1. @Ms Linda Yeah, but i mean, at least he doesnt have dementia like joe biden. Joe biden is the same old hag that said ”120 million people died of covid” and said ”Im running for senate” and etc. The guy is senile, its almost not funny but pretty sad how he’s a puppet.

    2. Xander I see what you mean, especially considering how Trump knew the miraculous details of how the Spanish flu ended WWII, and how the continental army got a big victory by securing the airports

    1. I mean, you are listening to the same people saying hillary would win in 2016? What makes you think they will be right 4 years later?

    2. For somebody that doesn’t follow politics and doesn’t watch Fox News I see you people so brainwashed.

  2. Trump got more support in yerms of economy? Lol. What a joke. He failed the trade war. Dont know why people dont realize that

    1. @mark munoz yeah man,32% economic contraction while China is already bouncing back its economy in the 2nd quarter of 2020,even Indonesia with roughly the same population only got contracted by about 5%!!!

    2. And Trump racked up the national debt. It’s easy to look like you’re doing well when you’re using the family credit card. It’s what’s he’s done his whole life.

    3. You want to know why your CNN poll is off Steve Kornacki, Your being used by russia and the GOP to get fake poll numbers! And you Do not understand that? All you do is lie to the Pollster and you have manipulated the results? did they identify the poll as from CNN? Does CNN have TROLLS? Yes and that is who takes THEIR POLL! This means YOU cannot get good poll numbers from a poll that is being attacked by this means!! When you see a poll on youtube or twitter and it says CNN and will you take this poll, they will lie that poll to death! it is the game, you just do not know that! Do not trust a poll, and the bigger they are the more they will get this from Bannon and PUTIN!

    4. It’s true. The only thing Trump did for the economy was not screw it up, until COVID-19….

      Trump had ample warning. It was Peter Navarro (Trump’s financial advisor) that first warned Trump of the financial crisis to come if the virus became widespread (in January). People that know anything about the economy know that a pandemic will destroy it, and in spite of that Trump pretended the virus was a hoax, proving his utter ineptitude on economics.

    1. @G Money Yeah, if a large number of them pay barely twice the federal poverty-level income($11k/year), then it would seem like you are correct. If it weren’t for the simple fact that information gathering is often done by companies that are paid to tell us the “facts” that don’t include child poverty. Families have a hard time living on such low pay.

    2. @H.M. Murdock There’s no chance that that will happen. But for me it’s whatever. So guess what? Hey! 60% of the deaths by gun are suicides (and a few accidents, like taking out your pieces, wanting to clean them, forgetting that one was left loaded and cocked). Police fatal shootings (around 1k/year) account for 1.4% of the total gun deaths. Yes there are over 30k in total.

    3. LOL meanwhile the S&P 500 just today closed higher than the pre-COVID high. You gotta make a better argument than that.

    4. @Steve Pasquarella The stock market isn’t much of an indicator of the overall economy, and even if it were, if you paid attention to it, for the same number of days in office, the Dow, S&P etc, have performed right at 50% as well under trump as they did under Obama.

    5. @merle stewart They are wrong, but since you want to know why they think he is still good on the economy, here is their broken thinking:
      1. Trump was running the economy well, and (at least he said)he was brininging Manufacturing back to America.
      2. Then the economy hit and we had to shut down and the unemployment came with that.
      Now, 2 is technically true, the economy crashed with the shutdown, but the shutdown only happened because of the spread of the virus, and despite all of Donalds’ lies regarding how little he knew, he ignored the threat of this virus starting with the extensive briefings he was getting in January, where it was made VERY clear that this virus was highly contagious and could be spread by people with NO symptoms. How do I know he knew that? Because I knew it, in mid January – it was on Wikipedia. You think *I* am privvy to information NOT being given to teh POTUS? Of course not.
      This is when I knew despite me being a lifelong Republican, that this man had to go. He has been DIRECTLY LYING and spreading feel-good rah rah DISINFORMATION about the virus, to try to get people to go back to work, because he is a shortsighted MORON who doesn’t get that you have to get the VIRUS UNDER CONTROL, before there can even BE a normal economy again.

  3. Don’t get complacent, you still have to vote. Vote in person or drop off your ballot to a drop box if you can.

    1. @Richard G lol and OH how you hope and pray that happens…. But it won’t and you know this. And wouldn’t you know that democratic voter registration is seeing record numbers.. trump knows that. BYEDON/HARRIS 2020

    2. Walk it into a post office so our own government can’t come by and rip the mailbox off the street. This is the scariest thing I’ve ever witnessed.

  4. NEVER ASSUME anything based on polls. Get out and vote even if it looks like your candidate is winning.

    1. I can not vote for Biden. As a democrate I am disapointed that Biden never came to Milwaukee again. Hillary dissed WI, now the same with Biden. Unbelievable.

      Ask your self, did he come to your state? Did Joe simply sign up for president or is he actually campaigning?

    2. @James K. Boyle You would potentially leave a wanna be criminal dictator in office because you feelings were hurt that Biden didn’t come to visit? Grow up.

    3. @John Vanderbeck Biden not even trying, Trump been cleared at every level based on hoax, fringe investigations. What crime has he commited and your iron clad reasoning why?

      I am out on biden.

  5. So, when Trump loses and then goes to jail for obstruction, that will seal his legacy of being a loser his entire life.

    1. @Big Blue It would be a reversal worthy of this Shakespearean/American tragedy if Pence agreed to pardon Trump, Trump resigned, and then Pence reneged. lol Honor among thieves and liars and all.

    2. @Big Blue Kier was a brutal QC, I think his success rates was something ridiculous. Can’t wait to see Harris V Trump, if he thinks he can intimidate her like he tried with his previous opponent he his going to be crucified.

    3. Pence knows more chit about his crimes than anybody. He can pardon him but SDNY won’t. Biden should investigate all of them.

    1. Nah. Some Americans would like to, yet we’ve been thru worse. Some Americans used to want to own people as chattel & were willing to die for it, so they launched a war against the government & 600,000 people, [mostly white] were killed, fighting over the freedom of 4M black people. We went thru an entire decade where we assassinated political leaders to such a degree that today it would be the worst terror threat of this era. America will survive, what’s sad is why we keep having to.

    1. @Nunya Bidness I encourage you to use it,
      I like to rewrite it this way:
      Bye-Don 2020!
      But feel free to style it as you like!

  6. DON’T LET UP WITH PRESSURE, FOLKS! We need to get out the vote. Fight for your country! No whining!! #biden2020

    1. @Ms Linda mail delay? Are you that stupid? The U.S. Post office is the one that will be delayed with over 300 million in the U.S. that would have to vote through the mail!! 👎 You’re insane!😨

    2. @G Money Hey money, if Trump is indeed trying to rig the election by delaying the US mail is that OK with you? Or is there no end to the corruption you’ll put up with?

    3. @Ms Linda show me where Trump is getting rid of sorting machines…hey, drop in ballots are prone to fraud, the Republicans can use this to their advantage.

    1. Tom L. Check this out Alex you must watch what that socialist creep wants to grab every american’s money and property. He ain’t get his way.https://youtu.be/G3BTxNX1pQU
      Most people have no clue what Biden is after, he ain’t running anything and he can’t be trusted !
      He will bankrupted every American , we will own nothing if he is elected .

    2. Dave S the problem I’d that the left created the monsters to create fear and destroy arriva and coz cities to collapse. Look at every democrat city … they all in bad shape and they say they are fine and don’t need any help, as soon as Donald trump elected they are all going to be fired!!!!

    3. Dave S if you love Biden so much please enjoy Thousend vidéo it will teach you how Biden planning to rob every American . Alex you must watch what that socialist creep wants to grab every american’s money and property. He ain’t get his way.https://youtu.be/G3BTxNX1pQU

    4. Tim Knepper I can tell you not one person who support Biden can explain why😅 they just can’t, they have no idea what’s happening and they are being fooled and laughed it . Biden is laghing at all the people who actually like him , there are few , but he ain’t becoming the president. We have awesome President Mr Donald Trump! This man is a treasure to the United States . Heb is always 10 steps ahead not just from Biden also from any other politician in the Whitehouse. He is far advanced thinker , true leader , very successful billionaire. Trump poses incredible skills and spirit of fighter and courage spirit . Thank god for Donald trump ! What a blessing! Do your research and learn the facts he is an incredible president! Donald Trump 2020 🇺🇸🤗🙏🌟god bless America!

    5. James K. Boyle really ? You worry about that? Do you like his tax plan? Tell me one thing you like about Biden? He campaigning from his basement in his house and listening to his bosses , he refute ever answering any question so you coughs his lying you you.

  7. I like presidents that don’t look the other way when bounties are put on the heads of American troops.

  8. Mitch McConnell saying that the Post Office will be “just fine” to handle the mail-in ballots is about the same as the Wizard of Oz saying “Pay NO attention to the man behind that curtain”!!!

    1. yeah, good comment. I sure would like to hear the news network talking heads to say: We think. We Believe. It looks like . . . etc. but we are just not sure. For them it’s all about ratings. Election by popular news reports is a big part of our problem.
