Yep, any of us plebeians would be in jail for life if we pulled the shit he has. He's a traitorous tyrannical shit stain on this country.

"Yes" says anyone paying attention since 2015.

I deleted and reposted this because it didn't seem to federate properly the first time.

After a decade of this bullshit, who isn’t guilty of this? Craven bastards

It's shitty... but I get it. We already know the kind of petty craven asshole he is, hedging your bets in case he wins so he doesn't shit all over you is a good play in theory. In practice he'll still do it if you so much as hinted his shit didn't smell like fresh strawberries, so why not go in guns blazing?

Because they're chickenshit

Corporations are putting profits over people.

Hey look a headline that’s answered with “yes!”
People keep asking why the race is so close. Decades of brainwashing from the right wing infosphere and a lack of push back from out institutions that are supposed to be bastions of democracy are two primary culprits.
Realizing how all these worms turn to appease an incoming and fascist government is mind boggling to me. Never thought it would have happened here.
Yes, but have you considered there's so much more money to be made on HORSE RACE?
Why do you hate capitalism bro? Shouldn't billionaires have the right to burn entire countries down if it makes them a few dollars richer?
The thing is, truth and facts exist whether we believe them or not. The sun is a star and we rotate around it on a sphere.Yet there are people who still believe in a pre-Copernican, geocentric universe.
Facts don't matter when someone tells you something in line with what you want to hear or believe. Trump does that for his base. Nothing we say about it will change or undo the damage done.
Best we can hope for is superior numbers to the degree that the inevitable court battle after the election cannot refute.
Suck on that Betteridge.
