Why Joe Biden will lose to Trump

Sensible people which you are not will realize that the market has gone down because of something not controllable by Trump. the coronavirus is not Trump's fault no matter how much you want it to be. Stop rooting for the stock market to crash and stop cheering for the spread of the coronavirus, you are disgusting

To deny that there's fewer people "Feeling the Bern" in 2020 as opposed to 2016 is to deny reality. He called out to the people to join and expand his revolution, but they answered with a contraction at the polls instead. Bernie should listen to that feedback even if he's convinced himself that he knows what's best for everyone. Like Trump, he has his own cult of personality. If you disagree with him, you're wrong.

I'm sorry to say but Trump IS what America stands for...at least a third of it. THAT much of our country stands for what Donald preaches. It's a scary reality but it's time for us to embrace that reality and find a way to change that (futile as it is).

Trumpers are a minority, yes, but their numbers are significant. 65 Million is nothing to scoff at. THAT much of our population holds to those ideals.

Donald's election proved just how grossly divided we are. It proved just how prevalent racism still it. It also proved that, given enough corruption, our government could enact a Christian Sharia Law type construct, making us really no different from the Islamic terrorists.

I've had to accept many things since Trump's election and one of the biggest I've had to accept is this: there are a lot of bad people here in America...many of them Trump supporters (not all, but many) and many of them dems as well. Both sides.

While I'm an independent, I'm mainly taking the side of the dems right now for two big reasons: we have a common enemy: TRUMP and I consider them the lesser of two evils at this point in history. Regardless, our two-party system is flawed, our election system archaic and our government too damn corrupt from both sides.

Things will never improve if we keep staying the course and...I see no sign of deviation. If Donald Trump isn't the wake-up call then nothing will be.

I've had to sit here and watch since 2016 a massive portion of our population literally accept any and every form of corruption from Trump and his people in a cult-like fashion.

For the first time in my life I've found myself truly asking with conviction: How can we call ourselves better than our enemies?

I'm not a political person. I HATE politics. I started discussing them only after Trump in the running. That's how bad he is--it got me, a completely apolitical person, talking politics. That's how concerned I was and still am. Scary. I never thought I'd spend three years discussing politics. I'd like to go back to NOT discussing them again (if that's possible) but I need a president in the White House that doesn't scare the shit out of me and make me wonder if our country will even exist within a year. I'd accept Sanders or Biden because, while they're both old and (for many reasons) unfit for the job, they're at least "old normal" and what you'd expect from a president. I can live with that. They're table dressing and little more. That's fine by me. After three years of Trump turmoil, I'm exhausted.

I actually have a family member like Trump. Gaslighting, constant drama, ego, victim complex--etc. I cut that person out of my life because I don't have the energy, time or inclination to deal with that psychosis. Trump is the same way. I need a leader that can make me go back to my way of life and ignore politics again.

Thing is--I'm not sure I can ever put that genie back in the lamp. Now that my radar is attuned to what is going on in D.C., I may never feel comfortable enough to stop indulging in politics.

Trump was that red alarm. That "no more fucking around" alarm.

And, to be wholly honest with you, I fear his base more than the man himself at this point. The way they support and talk about him...it's scary. Like a cult. Like some sort of a spell was placed over them. Creepy.

The fact that Trump STILL isn't taking this seriously really tells us all we need to know about how he's going to handle this crisis moving forward: bare minimum effort, misinformation, suppression, obstruction, gaslightning, reactive only when the market drops, etc...basically his entire conduct his entire presidency.

And his supporters will, as per usual, continue to sit there, nodding their stupid fucking heads in agreement with everything he says no matter what, doing gaslighting of their own, etc.

It's an endlessly-turning toxic wheel and I honestly don't understand where Trump and his supporters get the energy or willpower to sit there, constantly indulging in it. It's senseless. It's as if they thrive and feed off of chaos. It really feels that way.
