We now have proof Trump will be beaten badly this November.

[shockey80]

When a so called President builds walls around the people's house, out of fear of the people, that is a defeated so called president.

That is a so called president who is out of ideas. That is a so called president who is desperate and terrified.

That is a so called president who will be removed from the people's house by the owners of that house, the people.

[dem4decades]

1. The proof is in the pudding. I'll wait.

[Alpeduez21]

10. Me too

But I will work to get out the vote to pass the time while I wait

[safeinOhio]

2. Great way to frame his actions.

Good job.

[sarge43]

3. If he's so terrified, he should leave.

Paraphrasing a film he's so fond of, "Get out of Our House!"

[milestogo]

4. There is no proof for future events.

[progree]

7. Yup. It's tough to make predictions, especially about the future

attributed to Yogi Berra.

another: "Never make predictions - especially about the future" - Samuel Goldwyn.

[katmondoo]

5. I will never get over 2016. I cried and cried because I knew Trump.

I lived and worked in N.Y.C. while he was on the rise. Everyone knew he was a con man.

[Ohiogal]

6. I cried and cried, too

and I never came within a hundred miles of him

The evil just radiated off him so bad it was palpable.

[progree]

8. I think he's morphed from a con man to a literal evil madman n/t

[SoonerPride]

21. I was sick to my stomach that night

I had a terrible feeling of dread

I knew instinctively that this isn’t right. Something terrible and evil has just happened.

I was right then and am still fearful of the next 8 months.

We are in grave danger.

[3catwoman3]

26. I was numb with disbelief, and still am.

Every time I see or hear him, there is part of me still that cries out, “How can this be?” Even after 3 1/2 years.

A bad dream from which I cannot wake up.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

9. I'm all for him handing over the keys right now. n/t

KY...............

[USALiberal]

11. Once again, people said this weekly in 2016!! nt

[shockey80]

13. Once again, 2016 was a freak accident.

It will not repeat itself. 2020 will be nothing like 2016.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

15. A "freak accident" is when I accidentally bite my tongue.

After which, it seems to repeatedly repeat.

Get out the vote.

[gordianot]

22. He had help, the single greatest intelligence operation that actually worked.

Now in the middle of a pandemic people are willing to challenge 300 years of racism, brave a Pandemic virus, rubber bullets and chemical weapons to protest this corrupt regime.

[Ms. Toad]

36. It certainly will, if we keep posting the mantra that Trump cannot win

There were democrats who voted for third party candidates to send a message to "president" Clinton. They were so certain she would win that they believed their votes were not needed.

On DU, anyone who expressed concern in the run up to the election was labeled a "concern troll" and ridiculed.

That complacency - and hostility to the obvious reality that Clinton might lose - contributed to his 2016 win. We don't need to hand him the gun for a second murder.

[edhopper]

12. Just stop

He won't be beaten badly. He will lose the popular vote again, but can still win the EC.

We must battle all the way to November. Thinking it is in the bag is a path to ruin.

[gordianot]

23. People need to get angry and stay that way.

Ballots will solve this crisis not assault rifles, tear gas, clubs, or Tweets.

[edhopper]

27. I meant battle

as in battleground States. I meant a battle to GOTV. I meant battle at the polls.

Not a literal battle.

[gordianot]

28. That is the problem Republicans approach elections as if it were war.

Actual weapons are a recent development.

[edhopper]

29. And Dems bring a knife

to a gunfight

[sellitman]

31. This x100

Hillary had it in the bag too.

I put nothing past this monster.

Even if he loses both the popular vote and the electoral College I am not sure he leaves the White House. The fencing he just installed makes me wonder. Also his private army with no name tags. They certainly don't serve the people. I am getting a sense of dread.

[edhopper]

33. I would like to disagree with you on this

.
.
.
.
....I would like to, but I can't.

[Jedi Guy]

37. Whether or not he physically leaves the White House doesn't much matter if he loses.

Come noon on Inauguration Day, he ceases to be President. Squatting in the White House won't change that one bit. And if he does refuse to leave, then the Secret Service will go in and drag him out if they must. If he bunkers down with armed sycophants and refuses to leave, then the Secret Service and FBI will do what needs to be done.

But one way or another, if Biden wins, the game is over for Trump the moment Biden is sworn in at noon on 20 January. Where he's physically located matters less than a fart in a windstorm.

[sellitman]

41. Seems logical

It also seems logic has taken a back seat since Dump has cheated his way to The White House.

Most likely he will challenge the outcome in Court. He is a real wild card. Who knows what he will do?

[dlk]

14. There will be epic Republican voter suppression and cheating

Trump lost the popular vote the last time, by several million votes no less, and he was still installed as president. It will be even worse this time around.

[panfluteman]

17. Yeah - The Russians and the Republican Governors Will Be Working Overtime This Time Around

When it comes to election stealing, you ain't seen nothin' yet.

[dlk]

32. Nothing they do will be surprising

[panfluteman]

16. That's Your Hope - or Maybe Even Wishful Thinking - That It's Proof.

And it would indeed be nice if the signs you mentioned did presage a Trump defeat. But we will see. The election itself will be the ultimate proof.

[mwooldri]

18. I hope... My trip home wasn't giving me any though.

Travelling through the reddest parts of Virginia (US 29 between Charlottesville and Lynchburg) - Trump signs everywhere. I've decided for every Trump sign in giving it the one fingered salute... Needless to say there were a lot of salutes.

If Trump is going to lose bad then I would have expected to see a dearth of signs.

[struggle4progress]

19. Chicken. Count. Wait. Hatch

[Wounded Bear]

20. The only proof is in the vote count...nt

[shockey80]

24. The coward Trump has a lot people here at DU scared.

That's what he wants to happen. Stop being afraid of that coward, Please!

Bunker boy is hiding in a bunker, screaming like a little bitch as he builds walls around the white house. There is going to be a very large voter turn out this November, I have no doubt.

[themaguffin]

39. You sound like trumpers saying that you're "scared" to go out because of Covid. That's not it.

After 2016, it should be clear, the ONLY proof is election results. That's it.

Until he's lost, he hasn't lost yet.

[JmAln]

25. I read this morning that 95% of Republicans still support him.

Unbelievable. His problem is he hasn't extended his support beyond his base to say the least.

[ProfessorGAC]

35. Can You Link?

Michael Steele said Friday night it went down to 84% this week.

[Hotler]

30. literally?........

I'm sure he's deserved an ass kicking going all the way back to jr. High School.

[Marrah_Goodman]

34. The only way we lose is if we lose it for ourselves somehow

[themaguffin]

38. No, We DON'T. It's great symbolism, but until that fucker loses, he hasn't lost.

[sarisataka]

40. I do not think you understand

The definition of the word 'proof'
