(26,158 posts)He is weak, rudderless, and an obvious racist who is doing nothing to calm the situation -- quite the opposite.
POC will be voting for their lives, voting in droves, like never before. Everyone pissed about what is going on will also be voting like their lives depend on it, because they know it's true.
We outnumber them. We will win.

(19,659 posts)I had a mostly apolitical family member tonight say they were donating to Biden due to the insanity taking place right now. They've never, to my knowledge, donated to any political campaign before. They're just so burned out on all the race baiting and hate and feel the need for some sane leadership.
