(92 posts)45. Trump will crumble
        I can't wait until Kamala's like: "i'm speaking, don't interrupt me". Trump's gonne be like: "yeah, that's the problem", and the world will know Trump's a misogynist jerk!

        Just like sporting events, if I root for a team and watch, they lose.  So, I won't watch as I don't want to jinx Kamala.
