“We’re gonna end it on day one … the whole thing is crazy,” Trump said on a Philadelphia talk show.

Vote y'all. Trump will literally make every negative thing you think about this country worse.

Gaza, immigration, EPA, lgbtq rights, corpo regulations, lobbying, corruption will all get much worse under him. And that list doesn't even scratch the surface.

Trump would*. Not will. He lost once, he'll lose again.

He's currently leading in the polls and many non Republicans sound exactly like they did in 2016 (Trump can't win)

For the love of all things holy. How many times do we have to repeat that Trump lost while being a sitting president? He even tried to illegally remain in power, and couldn't.

Why bring up 2016 and skip over 2020? Trump wasn't even a true politician back in 2016. Now he is, now people know how stupidly dangerous he is for the country. People wised up.

And the polls mean nothing. The press and poll makers can say "this candidate is leading by a landslide" all they want. And then in the actual election, things are more close to 50/50.
