He knows that fear is a big motivator to come out and vote. Kind of hard to do when GOP controls all branches of government. So it's the OTHER--the people from south of the border, Muslims, Democrats, or anything else he can think of to throw out there.

You can be sure that if Dems take back control of anything, he is going to scream that it was a fraudulent election. And after that, he's going to scape coat Dems for anything and everything he screws up after that.
