A lying, cheating, corrupt, pussy grabbing fraud of a businessman who has really failed at everything he's done... It would be different if they had someone with real talent, competence and some shred of character and decency as their candidate. The ultimate irony of it all is that each one of Trump's Republican enablers and ass kissers - or the great majority of them, at least - could do a better job of being president than their "dear leader" Trump. Where is John Kasich when you need him? Oh yeah - he's supporting Joe Biden.

Fareed is probably right in that, while Trump has been doing an absolutely abysmal job of governing, one thing that he has probably been working very, very hard at is figuring out how to hold onto power at any cost. And he's probably fully aware of and fully ready to exploit any and all loopholes offered by our Electoral College system of voodoo presidential politics.
