it’s in the guarded optimism the press has shown. There isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell that this trial farce will have a fair and equitable ending. Let’s only hope that after this trial🤣🤣🤣 ends, that we can come forward continuously before the election with unprecedented pressure, news releases, and evidence of how corrupt this fool is, then pray for a landslide, because a close swing state result will be open prey to rigging.

That is all they have been doing.

The democrats can really milk this for all it's worth, if they do it right.

Of course, that is a BIG IF.

After all an innocent person should not have anything to fear from something someone might say.

You all should support the candidate (a woman) who is running against him. Amy McGrath!
He's orchestrated this entire dictatorship through his hold on the Senate.
