Republicans approach Susan Collins levels of CONCERN over November. THEY ARE CONCERNED DAMMIT!!!
Belligerent Trump debate performance stokes fears among Republicans about November
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-debate-fallout-proud-boys/2020/09/30/89dd548e-0334-11eb-897d-3a6201d6643f_story.html
The aftermath of the first presidential debate between President Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden triggered a reckoning among Republicans on Wednesday about the incumbent’s incendiary remarks on white supremacy and his baseless claims of electoral fraud, with GOP officials privately expressing alarm about the fallout with key voters as the president’s allies argued that he electrified his core supporters.
Biden, who launched a train tour through the battlegrounds of Ohio and Pennsylvania, continued to pitch himself as a champion of working-class voters and saw Democrats rally around what they view as Trump’s threat to American democracy.
But few Republicans voiced outrage in the wake of Trump’s norm-shattering spectacle in Cleveland on Tuesday, including his statement that the extremist Proud Boys, a male-only far-right group known for street violence, should “stand back and stand by.” Responses ranged from silence to muted criticism, reflecting how the GOP remains convinced that an alliance with Trump and his voters is crucial for its survival.
But hewing too close to him is also seen as a mistake by some Republicans, particularly for those who wish to court moderates and independent voters.

Lawrence O'Donnell is showing a Kamala Harris clip, and dear God, she's gonna flatten Pence.
It's a discussion about Trump's debt, and he played a clip of her saying "He owes debt, and let's be honest about that, he owes MONEY to SOMEBODY, so WHO do you owe money to," and I felt the Bill Barr hearings come rushing back to me.
Pence is completely out of his league. That debate is going to be terrifying. And I can hardly wait.
