You have the pandemic spiking and the stock market tanking. Precisely what, besides racism, is the reason to vote for Tricky Trump/Devious Donny?

I think it's McConnell's abandonment of a Stimulus Bill until a Lame Duck session that's spooked them.

That last Stimulus turned the Stock Market right around.

12. My point is that Trump is running out of time and reasons to re-elect him

The ONLY thing he has to claim (besides racism) is that the stock market is doing well. It's not doing well, despite all the tricks, smoke and mirror tactics, and gaslighting that Trump and his minions are desperately trying to throw at voters.

Folks are voting NOW, and these cheap and destructive tricks a few days before the election will make no difference. Biden and the Ds will wind in landslides at all levels.

republicans are squealing about fiscal responsibility now that they see a Democratic President on the horizon... Got themselves in quite the pickle this time. I sure wish the media would bring up how the market's performance has been an illusion. If this correction continues, it's going to end up being huge. Our economy has been run like a mobster enterprise, nothing good is coming our way... Shit rolls downhill and us lowly 401kers are at the bottom of the hill, as always.

our debt now exceeds GDP, first time since WWII. No one is talking about that little factor that Biden will have to deal with. trump has made a complete mess of our economy and yet no one is talking about the details.
