    Whatever you say Barfo. But don't try to state what I'm looking for when you cant provide a real constructive response and just play spin games. Go troll someone else.

    Undecided voters should watch the DNC in full...all the speeches ....reasons for not voting for Trump are all there....it's been hashed over here for 4 years...thousands of posts stating reasons Trump is not capable honest or trustworthy...otherwise just vote for Trump but not because of pure disdain for people who won't...choices....this is a general post covering my views which aren't up for debate...I'm ready to vote today.

    If people STILL need reasons to not vote for Trump now, then they're incorrigible and not worth the time. This election will not be decided by people on the fence. It's simply about getting people to vote. I still have a semblance of hope that the majority of people in this country can see through the vitriol and xenophobia and lack of compassion, and stupidity, and... etc etc etc. Just get a good voter turnout and that should be enough to get rid of Trump.

    You don't need to be inspired by Biden-- I certainly and unabashedly am not. But a fucking monkey would be better than that racist, clueless POS. I don't NEED any other reason.

    We desperately need someone who can unite the country right now. Remember when politicians openly at least talked about bipartisanship and finding resolutions that was a compromise? It wasn't that long ago.

    Might not be Biden, but he's done more to bring some sort of restoration of common decency and morality than the guy looking to divide at every corner. How is it that we have a president of only his base? I can't believe we have come this far.

    All you downtrodden people
    Always bear the brunt
    Just sit back on your fat backsides
    'Til you have to face the Front
    Waiting 'til the bullyboys get you
    Don't make no kind of sense
    And pretty soon there'll be no room
    For sitting on the fence

    You better decide which side you're on
    This ship goes down before too long
    If Left is right then Right is Wrong
    You better decide which side you're on

    The West coast and NE coast will not determine who wins this election.
    If Joe takes Texas, Florida & Ohio it's over.

    I predict that Joe takes Texas, and that Debbie does Dallas.

    So, you're saying conservatives and Trump supporters are going to vote for Trump just to spite the other side? Sounds about right.

    Trump is bad is not merely a narrative. Over the last four years those opposing Trump shared actual examples of his actions, inactions, his words, and those for Trump have waived it off.

    I wondered the same thing but I figured you probably meant it as an example of your ability to predict.

    I guess "there are good people on both sides", right?

    What a crock.

    A small band of white rednecks brandishing guns and violence to maintain their white" superiority" is not the same at all as a multi-cultural mass protest of actual good people demanding justice for a besieged minority after 400 years of slavery and its after-effects.

    If there is a major reduction in violence then trump has no more chances. His entire post convention bet, all his chips, are down on law and order. If the boogeyman man disappears he is left tilting at windmills. The virus responses and failures retake center stage and he is left trying to defend decisions and policy that by nov 3 will have claimed 200,000 American lives. Every death brings closer to the old six degrees of separation that every American will have been negatively impacted by or know others seriously or worse tragically impacted by the administrations failures. Running as the outsider was truly his only advantage in 2016, now his performance an be compared to what the people feel they want from their president. His rallying cry of the last election, “What have you got to lose?” Now has stark and to many terrifying meaning for the consequences of a second term. Remove his attempts to gather votes because of fear, he can not win.

    I just really hope the masses turn out in force to crush the vote against him...it would do a lot for unity and a return to some sense of normalcy as a nation facing important changes and challenges that require selfless leadership
