Trump forgets he was impeached for puling his dirty tricks on Joe Biden.

Now, he wants to do it again.

I'm hoping the Bernie supporters are not dumb enough to fall for it.

Because he and the Repubs looked at the huge turnout for the Democratic primaries and almost crapped their pants. In some states, like VA, it was almost double what it was in 2016.

He needs to start rumors, much like he did in Ukraine, and tear down Joe Biden. Because he cannot win unless he tears down someone else.

But, he was impeached for that. Now, if he can just persuade enough Bernie supporters that the Democratic Party is trying to screw them, maybe they don't show up to vote?

Perhaps the people need to be reminded about what he was impeached for?

showing up on Election Day anyway--they're flaky. Actual serious adults who like Bernie will show up to vote Democratic in November. I'm not worried.

The youth doesn't vote and you poll poorly with Senior Citizens = No Chance.

he does not think he was impeached because the Senate didn't hold him accountable... therefore, whatever he did, he can do it again and better

Mitch and company will not hold Trump responsible for anything, especially if his illegal or immoral actions benefit the continuing power of the Republican Party. That is how a minority of the population can rule.

We are still not calculating in the Russia Factor. They could still install Putin's Puppet again.
