61. In many ways, Joe Biden would be the most down home President that we have had
Sun Oct 11, 2020, 06:25 PM
Oct 2020

since Jimmy Carter (Biden is similar to LBJ more, IMO). I really feel deep in my bones that he will get enough Trump supporters to cooperate, even grudgingly. What we need to do is get Joe elected and remove the top republican leadership from office in this same election, we have that unique opportunity this year to do that. If Mitch McConnell is sitting at home wondering how he lost, then he won’t be arrogantly saying that his mission is to make Joe Biden a one term President. We get rid of the obstruction by removing the leading Congressional obstructionists from office, along with Trump.

Democracy has never been neat. I assure you that we are in a bare knuckles fight with Trump supporters now, we can’t back down, the country’s future depends upon us winning.
