'WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE!!!': Trump pleads with California voters in astonishing new tweet [View all]

Source: The Independent

President Donald Trump fired off a bizarre tweet early on Thursday morning in which he desperately pleaded with voters in the solidly Democrat state of California to vote for him.

"People are fleeing California. Taxes too high, Crime too high, Brownouts too many, Lockdowns too severe," Mr Trump, 74, tweeted shortly after midnight.

"VOTE FOR TRUMP, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE!!!" he added.

California has been ravaged by multiple wildfires in recent months, some of which continue to rip through Golden State, leading some residents to flee.

The state was also hit with a record-breaking heatwave over the summer, causing multiple power cuts or "brownouts", as the president referred to them.

According to the latest polls, Mr Trump trails his Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, by some 30 percentage points in the state.

Democrats control every statewide office, dominate the legislature and hold all but eight of California's 53 US House seats. And the GOP’s deficit in voter registrations is a staggering 4.4 million.

He truly is a fucking moron, and thinks most Californians are as stupid as he is.
