These vote tallies are not just for the presidency. They will also decide life or death for....

hundreds of thousands of us, and that's not hyperbole.

Trump has no plan to contain, combat, or control this pandemic. He will let the virus rage across the country until there's a vaccine, and we don't know if or when we will get that vaccine nor how it will be distributed.

We also don't know if this virus can mutate to a more lethal strain nor its long term health affects.

I'm posting this to put some perspective on these vote counts. Lives are on the line with these counts.

These have been such a surreal four years and we haven’t had ANY breathing room. Not one DAY.

And yes, there still is a deadly virus ravaging our nation.

Trump will remove pre-existing conditions protections. Trump winning will sign peoples’ death warrants. Many of his biggest fans will be the most affected.

Literally, what will I do without insurance? I have to have oxygen and other meds to simply live.

Sarcasm aside, I’m sorry!

This is a really dire situation. Trump and the Fascist party really don’t care about us.
