Get trump elected, watch the U.S.A. unravel because of trumps insane way of breaking laws, and causing chaos through the country, and all the time Putin is planing on taken over the countries you mentioned, and who knows how many more. It's Putins revenge on the U.S.A., and he can do whatever he wants because he knows trump will never stop him, and neither will the republicans in the Senate.

We have to take back the WH, and hope for gains in the senate. GOTV is critical!
