Like I said 4 years ago, Donald did nothing to help his supporters but keep white people at the top of the racial caste system. Millions are out of work (more than during the Great Depression), many businesses are closed forever (nearly half of Black owned businesses have closed)
the economy is in the toilet, and lines at food banks are longer than workers have ever seen due to unparalleled need. Donald is threatening to challenge the election results in multiple states and demand recounts in multiple states although it is Donald who raged against mail-in
voting for months which led to his supporters not mailing in votes. Democrats stressed mail-in voting for months since you know, there is a global deadly pandemic that is airborne, so lots of people who believe in science mailed their ballots. That was the plan though, Donald
wanted to create what people are calling a "red mirage" to make it appear that he won on election night with in-person voting but once the mail-on ballots are counted, it is clear that Biden won. Recall, Donald in 2016 won Michigan, Pennsylvania & Wisconsin by 0.2, 0.7 & 0.8
percentage points, respectively — by 10,704, 46,765 & 22,177 votes. Hillary didn't contest the votes.
Meanwhile, Donald is trying to cut SNAP food benefits during the pandemic (though he's been trying to cut SNAP for years) and he is trying to take away your healthcare with no
replacement plan for millions who will be denied insurance due to pre-existing conditions. The Affordable Care Act aka Obamacare Supreme Court hearing is on November 10 in case you want to mark your calendar. Donald feels like they owe him a win.
Obamacare isn’t just for the uninsured. Obamacare is why people with employer-provided insurance get things like free birth control, free cancer screenings, and other preventative care with no copays (ACA mandated them). If Obamacare goes, we lose that. healthcare.gov/preventive-car…
Donald is overtly racist, sexist, misogynistic, homophobic, and xenophobic. He banned Muslims from the USA, he banned transgender soldiers from the military, he called our soldiers who died in war suckers and losers, he still has yet to say anything about Putin putting bounties
on the heads of our soldiers (although Pompeo says he spoke to Russian leadership). Donald praised white supremacists, multiple times. He calls African countries "shitholes" (although all of them handle covid 19 better than the USA). Donald is a literal criminal and was named in
the Michael Cohen indictment but only Cohen went to prison because Donald is shielded from prosecution while in the White House. He ran a fraudulent university and had to pay a $25 million settlement to the students. He ran a fake charity and had to pay a $2 million settlement.
He only paid $750 in federal taxes in 2016 & $750 in taxes in 2017 because he is such a tremendous failure at business that he had enough losses to absorb any taxable profits, and he is still fighting an audit wherein he owes $72.9 million (plus interest) for taking a fraudulent
tax deduction of $700 million for his failed casino empire that it turns out was tax fraud since he got a 5% stake in a new company as compensation. He can only write off $3,000 per year like us peasants not the full $700 million.
Donald was too busy golfing and not testifying
at his impeachment trial (remember that time Donald extorted Ukraine) that he had no time to prepare for a global pandemic despite two practice runs with Crimson Contagion in 2019 and a 2017 run through with President Obama's team who literally left Donald a color coded playbook.
Donald downplayed covid 19 since January although he told Bob Woodward how serious he knew it would be on February 7. When Donald says he wants the economy open despite having no national test plan, no contact tracing plan, no mass PPE production, no social distancing mandate,
no mask mandate, and no vaccine (the vaccine he promised by 11/3), he means herd immunity is the plan since mostly Black and Hispanic people will die. His covid 19 plan is literally genocide. Donald let 235,000+ people die of covid 19 (predominantly Black and brown people), put
brown kids in cages, and literally kidnapped brown kids in between his golf games, funneling tax dollars to his private businesses, and corruption - which of course led to his impeachment. Donald's election-eve announcement of a 1776 Commission underlines the failures of his
presidency. It's revenge because the 1619 Project was widely circulated & is being taught in schools. They whitewash the history of slavery in schools which makes it impossible to adequately teach the Civil Rights movement since students can't understand why Black people had to
protest for equal rights. Republicans "knew he was a merciless narcissist, without empathy or compassion. They knew he was corrupt and dishonest. They chose him anyway." A former NH GOP Chair admits it. usatoday.com/story/opinion/…
Donald had all the information needed to contain
covid 19 but instead decided to let people die since it impacted predominantly Black and brown people. Trump knew a covid 19 surge was coming in rural areas but he hoped it would hit after November 3. huffpost.com/entry/white-ho…
A lot of people profited from Donald's racism,
xenophobia, and his daily chaos campaign. They admit he has been ratings gold since 2015 when they covered an empty podium for hours waiting for him to start the show. He is literally a dictator in waiting with a team of complicit Republicans. Yet over 70,000,000 voted for him
thus far - 7 million more people than 2016. Republicans have always been the party of racism, voter suppression, and xenophobia. They don't like Donald's overt racism and prefer subtle systemic racism that keeps white men at the top of the racial caste system. Reagan Republicans
are fine with racism & xenophobia. Plutocrats have 2 options to stay in power, implement policies that benefit more people (nope, because they hate poor people, Black people, & Hispanic people) or consolidate power to increase minority rule. dailykos.com/stories/2017/8…
Republicans didn't remove Donald after he was impeached because they're complicit. Lamar Alexander concedes Donald did it. Republicans have rigged elections for decades. GOP admits if Black people voted Republican, voter ID laws wouldn't exist. vox.com/2016/9/2/12774…
Republicans tried to add a citizenship question to suppress Hispanic Census responses that “would clearly be a disadvantage to the Democrats” and “advantageous to Republicans and Non-Hispanic Whites,” according to a document filed in federal court. thinkprogress.org/thomas-hofelle…
Republicans don't want DC or Puerto Rico to get statehood because they have no plan to win those voters, mostly nonwhite, with any policy ideas and believe any newly added Senators would be Democrats. When my dad was a kid in 1952, there were 96 senators.
There are Senators serving who were alive when there were 90 senators so don't believe nonsense about how awful it would be to add Senate seats to give all Americans representation in an already skewed Senate that doesn't equally represent the population. motherjones.com/politics/2020/…
Donald is not an aberration. The Republican party created him for over 50 years and some of them are switching sides, temporarily, to support Biden after they let Donald set the country on fire.

nytimes.com/2020/10/30/opi…
MAGA meant bringing back 1968 civil unrest, 1929 economic crash, 1918 Spanish flu & 1861 failed confederacy all at the same damn time. Donald will try to burn the country to the ground until January 20. What will GOP do stop him? They still need him to GOTV for Georgia runoffs.

I'm confident in a Biden/Harris win but woke up enraged. It's going to take at least 16 years to get the USA back on a positive trajectory because of Donald. Covid 19 can be contained, hopefully by 2021 but the racism & xenophobia he made mainstream will linger. People chose him.
Republicans didn't want to stop Trump. "They knew he was a merciless narcissist, without empathy or compassion. They knew he was corrupt & dishonest. They chose him anyway" because they wanted minority rule of a diverse electorate with white men in control

Politicians in South Korea stayed out of the covid 19 response & left it to scientists and professionals.
South Korea ramped up production of PPE in February and rolled out a national plan for testing, contact tracing & isolation. Meanwhile, Trump was lying to us but giving Bob Woodward the facts.
Nancy Messonnier rang the alarm early on in February saying parents should ask their children’s schools about closures; businesses should consider telecommuting options to their employees, & hospitals might need to look into expanding telehealth services. statnews.com/2020/02/25/cdc…

Trump discovered a lucrative new revenue stream: people who wanted something from the president. An investigation by NYT found over 200 companies, special-interest groups & foreign governments that patronized his properties while reaping benefits from him. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
"Individuals, groups and companies that patronized a Trump property and had business before the administration are represented by dots. Arrows show the flow of money to Mr. Trump by way of his properties." Image
"Just 60 customers with interests at stake before the Trump administration brought his family business nearly $12 million during the first two years of his presidency, The Times found. Almost all saw their interests advanced, in some fashion, by Mr. Trump or his government." Image

@AdamInHTownTX @4everNeverTrump @JustinGrayWSB Or we could just have cops pretend Black people who assault them or steal their tasers are White. None of them quit after White men embarrassed them. All I have to say. In January: A suspect steals cops taser. He is still alive. whio.com/news/crime--la…
@AdamInHTownTX @4everNeverTrump @JustinGrayWSB In February/ DUI & took officer’s tasers. He is still alive. ydr.com/story/news/cri…
@AdamInHTownTX @4everNeverTrump @JustinGrayWSB September 2019. He was drunk, resisted arrest, took officer’s taser. He is still alive. lehighvalleylive.com/bethlehem/2019…

@KosherSoul Good idea since so many people don't know the Civil Rights Movement was far from peaceful. Some have a whitewashed idea of what happened when cops & white citizens turned violent against peaceful protesters. History is repeating. ImageImageImageImage

It's been a crazy morning going over legal documents to determine rights since businesses closing by order of governors. I came across this Y2K language & was reminded that there were so many IT professionals working behind the scenes that some people said Y2K was a hoax (thread)
since they didn't know IT professionals who worked on Y2K for several years prior by editing & scrubbing code to make sure we noticed no changes. Software applications with 2-digit years were replaced or altered if fixable. Some people are now saying coronavirus is a hoax despite
the rising positive cases & rising death toll. We could have been prepared but Trump fired everyone on the pandemic response team in 2018 & kept downplaying it & said it was a Democratic hoax. Taiwan prepared & has only 59 cases with 1 death. nbcnews.com/health/health-… #TrumpPlague
