If, in this year, we can't absolutely electrify America, that's on us, not protesters!

Trump said "I alone can fix it"

He said he'd end "American carnage"

Remember that? I do.

Has he fixed 'it'? Anything?
Has he ended this carnage?

*Looks outside*
*Looks at the news*
*Looks at the mask to put on*

No?

Anyone want to give a differing opinion? Any dissenters? Disagreements with my assessment that he has not fixed 'it' and that he has not ended the carnage?

Anyone?

If priority #1 is about getting Biden into the Oval Office, then our main thing tactic shouldn't be wringing our hands about protests, but telling our fellow Americans that Trump failed in his very promises. He failed. He lost the game.

Saying that he failed is only going to make heels dig in.
Biden and team have to offer an alternative. And I have faith that they will.
We will not change the minds of Trumpers. Not even sure if they have any.

Not saveable until they can’t find any jobs and can’t afford any medical.

Edit to add: Many will never be changed. Never. They believe they are the victims. Just like Rump.
