He, Barr, McConnell, Graham and Republicans in-your-face actions have resulted in nothing for the People.
From impeachment; to the ACA; to Social Security; to the supreme court; to coronavirus; to the trade war and tax/tariffs with China; to 400 untouched Democratic bills; to embracing dictators like John Ill and Putin and turning his back on diplomacy with the UN this man has abused the very people who might have supported him. His incessant lies, lack of civility and absence of simple courtesy as a human being put him in perpetual DGAF mode long ago.
Its so bad he pretty likely even faked coronavirus to get out of a debate because he absolutely has nothing to offer the American people or to show for his time on our dime.
How in the world does he think this sets him up to be re-appointed?
The fact that anybody does what they do and still thinks they deserve to stick around is either crazy [he is not] or believes that they dont have to do anything of merit because they cannot lose.
This is the real problem. The foundation theyve built that requires a Herculean effort to oust them must be destroyed.

he's made every mistake in the book and added a few chapters as well, and it's looking like he'll finally pay the price in november.
very simple. repeatedly alienate and offend the vast majority of the voters and they'll vote you out. add a yuge number of scandals and your political career is kaput.
yet the republicans chose to fall in line. all the other republican politicians bowed to him as if he were a political titan. but he was always a complete loser.
how is it that he wasn't treated from the get-go as an incompetent amateur at best?

Some wealthy people are probably happy about tax breaks.
