    I’m a Democrat to the core. But it’s important to know what we’re up against. Democrats will win if we show up, but we need to show up or it’s back to Trump.

      It’s early to be in panic mode. I can’t handle 11 months of terror. Let’s see how things look in October. I’m voting against Trump anyway, unless I get an anxiety-induced heart attack.

      Do you honestly believe there are voters who don’t know what Trump is and what he’s done? You think there are those that are undecided that will see these “Trump’s ahead!” and go “not on my watch in 11 months!”

        Yes, I do. There are people who plan to sit on the sidelines but will come out to vote if there’s a risk of another Trump presidency. The US has notoriously low voter turnout compared to other mature democracies.

          I agree with this… Getting people to turn up to vote in key places is the determining factor this time, same as last time. Biden won specifically because people showed up. It was very much a “not on my watch” kinda thing
