he incited an insurrection against the US government, he engineered the Dobbs ruling that snatched away women's abortion rights and bragged about it, had been convicted of 34 felonies and is awaiting sentencing, has been found guilty of sexual harrassment and the judge himself called him an ajudicated rapist, and the AG of New York won a hundreds of million dollar judgment against him and his NY properties.

I believe there are more American voters who will vote against such a despicable character, even in the battleground states, and we will rejoice on election day, or the day after once all the ballots are counted.

We should all be careful not to appear to happy when out in public after the election as the maga ts will be looking to pick fights.

But fuck them ahead of time. trump will become a two-time looser on Nov. 5.
